I recently bought an awesome new t-shirt that says “Pugs Not Drugs.” (It’s from a cool organization I just discovered – the Chris Atwood Foundation. Obviously, Manly the Pug is doing some good work out there.)
Pug life, yo.
I can’t argue with that message, and it got me thinking (a dangerous prospect, I realize). What other societal ills could we get rid of with rhyming dog breeds? Continue reading
I realized that I haven’t spent much time letting you get to know Tavish. So, here are a few fun facts about the newest member of the I Still Want More Puppies family:
It’s Friday… let’s get to the linkage!
You didn’t think I’d make it through this post with only one Olympics reference, did you? As if. Today’s video reveals the results of the Cat Sleeping Position Olympics:
That’s all folks! Hard to believe the Olympics are almost over already. Will you be spicing up your life on Sunday?
As I confessed last week, I’m an Olympics junkie. Maybe I should just embrace it and purchase some Olympics-inspired decor. Or I could rock some Olympic nail art. In any event, I’m just a tad obsessed. So, it’s the same theme, but all new links…
Finally, I think today’s video is all the evidence we need that kitten wrestling should be an Olympic event.
I can’t help myself… I have a second video today. Meet my new favorite track star:
I’ll stop now. Happy Friday!
You may remember when I shared a great post from Oh, Corbin – “You call me a Pit Bull like it’s a bad thing.” Using that post as inspiration, Corbin has organized a special event today – Blogville Pitty Post Day! The mission is simple – share a positive post about Pit Bulls.
The timing couldn’t be better for me, actually. This weekend, I had the pleasure of spending a few hours with a fantastic Pit Bull in need of a home, and I’m delighted to introduce her to you today. Continue reading
Today, I join several other bloggers for Pillars of Strength – A Special Day for K.
K is the canine star of many gorgeous photos over at Romping and Rolling in the Rockies, as well as the beloved companion of my blogging friend KB.
The photography of K and her furry brother R takes my breath away on a regular basis. It’s a constant reminder to enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds me.
K has been diagnosed with cancer (osteosarcoma in one of her front legs) and will be undergoing another round of chemo next week. Today, many pet bloggers are joining together to send support and encouragement to K and KB during this time. I’m joining in to send lots of hugs their way.
I also thought I’d send a few smiles their way, with a special Valentine’s Day edition of No Frown Friday, dedicated to K and KB. Enjoy these links from the heart, after the jump:
Please join me and these other fantastic bloggers to send hugs and good thoughts to K and KB today…
Before we get into the usual Friday linkage, I wanted to take a moment to thank the veterans who have served our country. We owe them a great deal. As always on this holiday, my thoughts go to the poem “In Flanders Field” – those verses say so very much. If you have a chance, I also recommend you check out these amazing and inspiring photos from a new book on canine soldiers.
Now, it’s time for your usual installment of No Frown Friday…
Another topic that makes frequent appearances? Space. So, without further ado, I give you this week’s video: Corgis… in… space!
(If you can’t get enough space, go watch Nyan Cat too. Someone should come up with Nyan Gosling Cat. Get on it, Internet.)
That concludes your regularly scheduled linkage. Before I go, you should know that a pretty cool event is going on in blogland this weekend – it’s a Blogpocalypse! A group of wonderful bloggers will be participating in a blogathon to raise support for various causes. I hope you’ll check them out. (If you do, you might even see a guest post from me over at My Brown Newfies!)
I’ve got lots of linky goodness for you today. Before we get silly, however, I have some cool information to share with you in honor of Pit Bull Awareness Day, which just so happens to be tomorrow.
Our pals over at love and a six-foot leash have put together a special adoption event with the Montgomery County Humane Society. For a select group of lovable wonderbulls known as Little Zee’s Fabulous Four, all adoption fees will be sponsored. Once a dog in the Fabulous Four is adopted, a new one will take his or her place on the list.
If you’re in the DC area, check out the details on how you can bring one of these adorable pups home. (Even if you’re not looking for another dog right now or aren’t in DC, you can still help by spreading the word!) For bonus points, head over to Peaceful dog, where a donation will be made to the Washington Humane Society for each comment. Pretty cool, huh?
Now, back to your regularly scheduled puns…

The video below, however, looks like it came from the best movie ever.
It’s like a remake of 8 Seconds only much more fun and without Dylan McKay.
Oh, and I know it’s No Frown Friday, but I want to keep you posted on what’s up with us today. Bella had to go in for surgery to have a lump removed this morning, and I’ll be picking her up this evening if all goes well. That being said, we’d appreciate any healing vibes you could send her way.
I’m hoping that it’ll turn out to be nothing, and that the worst part of the whole ordeal will be her displeasure regarding the cone of shame. (At least we don’t have a doggie door, I suppose…)
