News Reel - Measure Your Dog's Smarts

This link was emailed to me yesterday so I printed off the article and went home to test my dogs. You know I totally wouldn't miss this opportunity!! If nothing else, it's something fun and different to do with the dogs and I'm always looking for something neat to do with them.


Measure Your Dog's Smarts


While my Border Collie/Aussie did quite well, the results weren't as promising for my

GTB Followup - Cardigan Welsh Corgi

As I stated in my last post, I would put up some info about the Cardigan Welsh Corgi. (Not to be confused with the Pembroke Welsh Corgi "The Pembroke Corgi is a separate breed from the Cardigan Corgi, possessing a shorter body and straighter, lighter boned legs")


The links will take you to the AKC Breed Standards page for both breeds. The first picture is a Cardigan with the colourings we see

Guess the Breed #1

I thought I'd set up a new type of post for fun. I'm going to call it "guess the breed". This is one of the things I find fun when I'm out at different shelters, perusing through the internet and reading emails so I thought I'd share.

CL - The Truth About Daisy

Why did I choose to post it? Because it is a GREAT reminder that ads are not always what they seem. Note that the OP says she has listed the dog multiple times on CL trying to rehome her with various sob

OT - Adgitize

I wanted to put up a quick post about Adgitize. For the last few months I have been advertising with Adgitize and it has helped to spread the word about my blog. The really neat thing about Adgitize is that you can earn the money you spend on advertising back (and then some). While the top earner for this past month brought in $41.50, my earnings were significantly lower than that. However, I was

Featured Rescue - Max the Alaskan Malamute

Usually I don't post Featured Rescues when the rescue hasn't bothered to put more than a few sentences up about a dog, but I couldn't resist this one.

Max is an older guy - 10 years young. He's house trained, walks well on leash and is "lovable". (I hate it when rescues put up that a dog/cat is 'lovable' because it really tells you bupkis about the animal!)

July followup

Happy August everyone! Whew! July was crazy busy for me ... I don't know about everyone else? I am looking forward to August. So far it is turning into a good month where I can catch up on some things that have been waiting.
