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:

The west coast has the sunshine and the small dogs all get so tanned. I dig a french bikini on Hawaii island, dolls by a palm tree in the sand.

Italians are known worldwide for their food, charm and good looks. Now, add dog lifeguards to the list. Across Italy, dogs have been deployed as lifeguards on some of Italy’s most popular beaches. These dogs, “are trained to jump out of helicopters and boats and swim to the rescue of struggling swimmers. They are credited with having saved several lives by taking lifebuoys to swimmers and towing them to safety.” Cin cin.

A 4-year old papilon named Romeo,escaped near death, after being rescued from the jaws of a 12-year old hybrid wolf. This is one clever small dog, since it is widely known that hybrid wolfs shoot laser beams from their eyes and have the power to freeze time.

It looks like a dog in Memphis, who shot his owner in the back, is not going to be charged with a crime.  Something about opposable thumbs.
