CODE RED!!!! AMBER ALERT!!! There is urgent, BREAKING NEWS out of the UK, a “giant bird” has been spotted over a Flintshire village. One resident described the bird as, “very capable.” “People are worried because it is lambing season and it might go after peoples’ small dogs.” Naturally.

It turns out that the European Union is literally a hotbed for small dognapping.
A 9-year old Bassett Hound, Blue Heeler mix is lucky to be alive after he decided to go all Dorothy and Toto on his owners. Two weeks after a tornado hit and Pongo was blown away, he found his back home, thin but healthy.
Talk about a curios incident of the dog in the nighttime. Totally Encyclopedia Brown.

You might wonder what life is like after winning one of the most prestigious titles in the world, the title of course of the world’s smallest dog. I am sure some of you assume that after the flash bulbs fade and the paparazzi scatter that life is likely to take many wrong turns, as it does for so many child actors who are thrust into a grown up world of public notoriety too quickly (i.e. Britney). Some of you may remember Dancer, the little chihuahua who took home the title last year. Where is dancer now you might ask? Passed out on a beach in Mexico? On the lam from the law? Of course not!!!!! Dancer is now showing off his skills as a therapy dog! If you go to that link you can watch him in action!
It looks like the dog bottled water market is booming! Human aren’t the only ones who need their water put into plastic and shipped half way around the world for enjoyment and consumption. I have a friend whose dog made herself sick from dehydration when she refused to drink tap water, apparently, they learned she had a taste for Evian.

It looks like Jack Russells may be acquiring the reputation as the new pit bull of the dog world. Does that even make sense?
This is not small dog news, but congrats to the 200lb mastiff named Lurch who has donated blood 20 times to help save the lives of other pups in need.

I thought a side by side comparison of Blossom’s Mayim Bialik and the photo I posted the other day of the suspiciously similar bulldog could be helpful, and by helpful I mean mind blowing. Again, back and to the right. Let me repeat, back and to the right. Talk about witness protection program. Blossom who are you hiding from? Is it your recovering addict brother Anthony?


And speaking of being on the lam, what is this small dog trying to hide from?? Maybe the pup is hiding from Mayim Bialik?????? AHHHHHH!

There’s been so much talk about Britney and who has custody of her children but, another good question, who has custody of her dogs??? E claims they are in “safe custody.”
If you live in the Houston area, keep your eyes on your small dogs, a Houston news station reports that the city is literally a hotbed for dognapping.

An oldie, but a goodie. I wonder if Hallmark or 1-800-Flowers has started selling clones of this small dog yet? If so, I’ll take the usual, a baker’s dozen.

Providing even more irrefutable evidence that small dogs are cuter than big dogs, for the first time every, a little beagle named Uno took top dog honors at the Westminster Dog Show. According to the Associate Press, Uno celebrated his victory by, “chewing on the microphones of reporters who tried to interview his winning crew.”

In a sad and shocking turn of events, it has just been confirmed that several puppies from this year’s Puppy Bowl have the deadly canine parvovirus. So sad.
Once again we pose the age old question, Who let the dogs out? Who? Who? Who? Who let the “murderous” American Staffordshire terriers out? Who? Who? Who?
A woman in Sweden was fined after she refused to sell her puppy to a Lesbian. The kennel owner reportedly made it clear, “that she did not trust homosexuals and had read that transvestites sexually abused animals.”

Thanks to Fiza for alerting me to some gruesome small dog news out of Pasco, Washington. A puppy there came amarching home with a piece of human scalp in his mouth.

Check out the Baltimore Sun to see which dog your presidential candidate looks like. They neglected to include Obama or Hilalry. That’s a little unfair telling that poor French Bulldog that they look like Rudy Giuliani. That’s pretty insulting.If you are traveling through Miami County and spot a hitchhiking Chihuahua, don’t trust him! Apparently, the pooch has been wreaking havoc on the unsuspecting good Samaritans that have stopped to pick him up. Seven little pooch, NOT six!!!!!!

Happy 100th Birthday Milkbone!

I am not sure what the problem is here, but they seem to think it’s shocking that Helen Bogus adopted one dog and ended up with 14. Helen, I think that’s what they call “magic.” And, over in the UK they are making a fuss about a dog that gave birth to 16 puppies. Cha-ching! Jackpot.
Kudos to the powers that be in Iowa, they just proposed a law that would make it a felony to even watch dog fighting!
Did you know this year’s Puppy Bowl will be broadcast in HD for the first time?!? Check out the starting line up.

Did you know that Glen of Imaal terriers (shown above) are rarer than giant pandas! I have a vision, it includes a reality show about the pups, peppered with stellar product placement and a star studded cast. We’ll call it, Temptation Island!
The US aren’t the only one who want border control. A woman in Australia is demanding that the government erect a dog-proof fence! Do you think that have a stupid-proof fence we could put up around this woman’s property?

Though this record looks like it was given out in 2005, Brandy is the new world’s smallest dog? This record seems to change every month. Poor Boo Boo and Ducky.
In an attempt to be small, a fat dog looses half his weight. It’s not easy being small. Maybe your dog should join the “PetFit Challenege.”
