What would bloggers do without infographics? Here’s a fun one created by Pet365. I’m not sure about the “Fastest car window opened by a dog” record — after all, who knows how many other dogs simply neglected to register their accomplishments? — but I’m proud to note that Giant George, the world’s tallest dog, lives…
Is Your Blog Design Android Tablet Friendly?
I have a wonderful new toy. As I mentioned in a recent post, I won a Samsung Galaxy Tab by entering Go Pet Friendly’s Zyrtec contest. It has all kinds of features that I’m trying to figure out, but while I’ve been dipping my toes slowly into other functions, I’ve been doing something I’m pretty…
This & That Thursday (including PETA does Porn)
It’s been one of those scattered weeks and I didn’t manage to get it together for a focused travel post. But I’ve got a lot on my mind to share, some of it even pet-travel related. A BIG Thank You to Karen a.k.a. Doggie Stylish (and a teeny one to UPS) I’ve written about the…

Wordless Wednesday: Photo Edit Fail
Here’s the original: Can scary white-eyed Frankie be helped? By the way, you can now see why I chose the picture I did for my Throver post yesterday.
Serendipity and Taxidermy
Yesterday I posted about Owney the postal train dog –– and now Forever stamp poster dog — who met his end in a somewhat ignominious fashion, having been shot and then stuffed. My pal Lori over at The Dog Park commented that the real train dog symbol should have been Hachiko, a Japanese Akita who…
The Petties, Pee & Papers, Please: What’s Funny?
The pressure is on. I found out Tuesday night that Will My Dog Hate Me was nominated for a DogTime Pettie award as Funniest Pet Blog or Blogger. This would suggest to me that, if I want to win, I’d better be funny from now until July 29, when the voting ends. What’s Funny? A…
Wordless Wednesday: Canine Cop of the Year
Fiona, an English bulldog, was crowned the Top Dog: Canine Cop of the Year by the National Museum of Crime & Punishment in Washington, D.C. According to the website of the museum — which, you’ll be relieved to hear, is more CSI than Dostoyevsky — the contest was: Inspired by the world’s most famous canine,…
