Smalldogarific: A Study of Small Dogs

Come on small dog let’s do the twist, take me by my little hand and go like this.

Dear Professor:

Smalldogarific has been absent from school due to upper respiratory congestion.

Best,
Mr. & Mrs. Smalldogarific

P.S.: Happy Fall!

Now is as good a time as any to get a jump start on your New Year’s resolutions and hone your canine freestyle skills. “”You have to pick out music that goes with your dog…The dogs can do figure eights around your legs. They spin, and we spin. Sometimes they’re on their hind legs. They can wave, do marching things, jump over things.”

Did anyone catch this sight of dog magnificence?

Authorities are saying that DMX is no Michael Vick, but something is definitely going on at the rapper’s Phoenix home. Police recently raided his home and found the carcasses of three dogs, that apparently were burned beyond recognition.

Military police in Amsterdam made a shocking (and delightful discovery) at Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport. An airport employee heard strange noises coming from a luggage locker and alerted the military police. When the locker was opened they found, “a small keeshond dog in a carrier bag stuffed between several suitcases. The dog’s owner did leave some water and dog food in the locker.” So thoughtful!

A sixth month old puppy has gone missing after taking a ride on a tornado.

If you are thinking of getting a hyprid wolf puppy, read this first! Important characteristics to note: they can “dig under any fence within minutes…howl every night…Jump an 8 foot fence.” I’d like to pre-order two hybrid wold puppies with laser beam eyes. Thanks.  Anyone else want to tack a few on to my order?

I’ll drink to that:

There’s a lot of people sayin’ we’d be better off dead. Don’t feel like a small dog, but I am to them. So I try to forget any way I can.

Rapper DMX, has gotten himself into some hot water. Dog clothing company, Amusing Diversions Inc., had the genius idea to create a “Boomer 129″ clothing line, named after DMX’s dog. DMX signed on to promote the line, which includes including caps, scarves, raincoats and bomber jackets, but never fulfilled his contractual obligation. A judge recently ordered him to pay a $242,000 to Amusing Diversions. How many small dog bomber jackets do you think that would buy? Infinity?

Downtown Salem, Oregon, has gone to the dogs, with its Dog Daze First Wednesday celebration of dogs. I am totally going to take a vacay there.

Sometimes the good Lord giveth and sometimes the good Lord taketh away, and the good Lord taketh away.
