Smalldogarific: A Study of Small Dogs

You think i stand so firm, you think i sit so high on my trusty steed? Let me tell you, I’m usually face down on the ground, when there’s a small dog stampede

June 19th, 2007

A girl scout in Washington State was sifting through a pile of trash at a local Goodwill (she was looking for scrap wood for a girl scout project) when, to her surprise, she came across a magnificently disturbing sight, a black and white beagle and springer spaniel puppy. Do you think that this puppy is 100% delicious, like a black and white cookie? I imagine so.

The Herald News published the following article, Big men, Tiny dogs find a place in the hearts of oversized men. The article profiles three men, two of which it explains are over 6 foot tall, the third is of an undetermined size. These men are all small dog owners. Have you ever heard of something so wild? I have. I think it’s called a Napoleon complex. Brian owns a 14-lb dachshund named Laverne. He explains that he “sometimes gets looks and comments when he is with his dog. The best time, though, is when he is driving with Laverne, who likes to perch herself on his neck…despite Laverne’s small size…Brian says she has a big personality. ‘I have a spiked collar on her because she’s tough like that…’” Also, Dave Gibson, the owner of 3 Yorkshire Terriers said in reference to them, “they do everything a big dog does, but they don’t hurt nobody and they’re easier to take in the car.” Imagine that, tiny little dogs doing everything big dogs can do, what has the world come to? Soon, people will say that women are just as able bodied and capable as men.

I’ll drink to that:
