Dismayed at Dog Decisions

I'm a little peeved with Joe Biden and Barack Obama for not choosing dogs from an animal shelter.
I live next door to a dog who was adopted from a shelter, and he is one of the best, kindest and most well-natured dogs I have ever met.

Don't buy dogs from pet stores or irresponsible breeders. Millions of shelter animals depend on you to make the right decision - adopt your next pet from an animal shelter.

Wheelchairs for Dogs

Dewey's Wheelchairs for Dogs was a real Godsend when Sebastian got older and had problems with his hind legs. If your dog is having mobility issues, I highly recommend that you contact them.

Doberman Dinner Guest

Doberman makes an appearance in a wireless phone ad, after being summoned by the Wizard. I can't believe the guy in the pink shirt calls him a puppy.

Dogs Hang Ten

The weekend saw around 60 dogs compete in the Surf Dog competition at the Loews Coronado Bay Resort in Imperial Beach (San Diego) California. Here's a video clip.

Tiffany and Sebastian loved to swim in the water, we used to take them to the river all the time to swim. My current two Dobes are not that into it. I guess I just need to take them to the beach more and get them into the water.

Dogs Delivered from Dire Deep Water

The United Animal Nations volunteers have been helping to rescue and rehabilitate the animal flood victims of the Midwest. Kudos!
These animals are being plucked off of rooftops and out of attics. They're scared and separated from their owners. A big round of applause for the volunteers for all their hard work.

Doggy Dream Homes

Wow, check out these dream homes for dogs! I'm in the same boat as the commenters, though. My dogs just wouldn't sleep in their own little house, unless it was inside the main house and they thought of it as their crate.

Dozing Dobermans

Here are Buffy and Nemo asleep on the floor. Buffy snores and that cracks me up. It's just not very ladylike.

Missing My Babygirl

Three years ago today we had to say goodbye to our little Tiffy-girl. I miss her so. She lived a long, healthy life (after a puppyhood bout with Parvo) and she was spoiled. Her body just up and gave out on her. We took her in to a specialist because she would just walk around in circles constantly. The Doc took some x-rays and said she only had a month left. We had to let Tiffany go just a week later and it was heartbreaking.

I will always remember her zest for life, she had such enthusiasm. If you sat down and crossed your legs, she would position herself over your foot to get a belly rub.
Tiffany was a great Doberman and I am blessed to have had her in my life.

Tainted Pet Food Settlement

Here's the update on the lawsuit by pet owners against those foul companies who imported a dangerous ingredient from China to use in the manufacture of pet foods.
Nearly 1,500 dogs and cats died as a result.
I'm truly sorry if yours was one of the ones affected. My animals are all OK.
