My girl thinks this dog is cute. She wants to save it from a shelter. Ooof. That is the ugliest dog ever.
I’ve never seen a dog with herpes before, but… Look, I feel bad for the little mutt. Poor guy is the Willie McGee of puppies.
My girl has such a huge heart. She loves animals. (Well, she loves all animals except rodents, and insects, and animals that smell bad… and she hates birds. But besides that, she loves animals.)
Me? Animals are what I call “uncooked food.”
No, I love dogs. Dogs give so much love and all they want from you are treats, a good belly rub and for you to pick up their poop at 2 am.
Okay, in one of the pictures, the dog KIND OF, MAYBE looks cute:
But in another picture, we are reminded that this is Satan’s dog.
How can I walk around with this ugly-ass dog?
Am I superficial because I care about a dog’s looks? Well, whatever. Looking at this dog is going to give me nightmares.
Then my girl is going to want to let this Satanic dog sleep in the bed with us. And I have to worry that it’s going to eat my flesh and swallow my soul?
No. Can’t do it. Let’s get a plant. Plants are cute

Small dog breeds are increasing in popularity every day, and not just because of Paris Hilton. Small dogs have a lot of great attributes that many people want in a dog without any of the size problems.
Small dog breeds are great for several reasons. Of course they are small, so if you live in a small apartment a small dog is ideal. Also, it is much easier to travel with a small dog because they can fit easily in a bag around your shoulder or in a small carrier, and don’t they don’t take up much space in the car.
Caring for small dogs is a lot easier and cheaper as well. They eat a lot less than a normal sized dog and also most of them shed less than a normal sized dog which is good for people who want to avoid allergens.
There are many small dog breeds that are in the top 10 in terms of popularity in the AKC list of breeds. These include the Shih Tzu, Miniature Schnauzer, Yorkshire terrier, Dachshund, and the Toy and Miniature Poodle. These small dogs keep moving up in popularity and push even more familiar breeds out of the top ten list. The trend looks to be continuing this year and at least for the near future they will continue to gain in popularity.
Often times people think that small dogs are not as aggressive as large dogs. Don’t underestimate small dog breeds; they can be just as aggressive as large dogs. Most make great watchdogs, and will let you know the minute something is not right. A lot of small dogs will even try to attack larger breed dogs!
Always be sure to purchase your dog from a reputable breeder. Check with other people and see where they purchased their dogs from and ask for buying tips. Often times buying from a pet store is the worst place to buy your small dog breed from. Small breed puppies can be prone to many medical issues like hypoglycemia and congenital defects so it is important to have you new dog examined by a veterinarian soon after purchase.

Dog lovers. They have a dog for reasons other than guarding the house or going hunting. They may let the dog sleep with them. They spend hours with the dog every day. They speak in loving tones to and about their companion. Dog lovers enjoy getting birthday cards that focus on that love. Funny birthday cards for dog lovers are also appreciated. Just imagine what might be contained in the following 7, and you will see what I mean:
1. Funny English Bulldog birthday cards
2. Amusing Jack Russell terrier birthday cards
3. Hilarious Black Labrador birthday cards
4. Droll Dachshund birthday cards
5. Witty French Poodle birthday cards
6. Comical Golden Retriever birthday cards
7. Humorous Saint Bernard birthday cards
Funny English Bulldog birthday cards seem especially appropriate to me. They would be easy to create, with great potential for humor. A photo or sketch of an English Bulldog, fangs protruding beside a long tongue, might include a caption regarding someone being a bit “long in the tooth” these days.
A funny English Bulldog birthday card we found online is a “driver’s license” for the recipient’s English Bulldog. You can have a “DMV pet license” custom made for the English Bulldog lover. Like an official DMV driver’s license of the chosen state, your friend’s “DMV pet license” will be a laminated, wallet-sized card. He or she will also receive a matching collar or keychain version.

Where can you find ideas and concept to help in human innovation? Well one place is to study the works of those who are designing toys. That’s right toy technologies. You know I have always thought that the Toy industry is a great place for innovation, because the stuff they come up with is way out and probably something no one would ever fund, but it works.
All sorts of cool aerospace designs, robotics, military kids toys and stuff. In fact I now live in a mobile command center myself, an idea basically from the GI JOE toy - Interesting indeed. It seems that borrowing ideas and concepts from Toy Designers makes a lot of sense really. I think a good engineer might find a great home making toys, RC and such and without the stress, sounds fun.
Currently, the average age of the aerospace engineers is 57 years old - that means we will need a whole new generation of designers and innovators, but even with all the kids in engineering school today, it is not even a fraction of what we will need. We may need to recruit some of these toy designers to give us a helping hand other wise we are going to be in for some dire problems in the future.

Dogs are excellent at escaping. Some breeds are better at it than others but on the whole when a dog wants out they usually achieve their objective.
Keep your dog at home while at the time providing a safe barrier to keep them in is easier than you might think.
One method is to use dog kennel fence to keep your fiesty fido safely at home. Let’s take a look at three ways you can use dog kennel fence to achieve your objective.
1. Build a pen. If you have a small to medium dog you can use dog kennel fence to build a play pen of sorts for your dog.
Building an exercise or play pen is cost effective and fairly simple.
Determine how big of an area you want to use and then consider your dogs size and abilities before investing.
This way you save yourself from having to modify or go back and fix the pen when your dog gets out.
Give them enough room to exercise in but make the pen high enough and strong enough so they can’t push over the walls or jump out.
2. Build a full blown outdoor kennel.
With some wood and dog kennel fence you might want to choose to build a full blown outdoor dog kennel for your pal.
Once again you need to determine the space, your dogs size and abilities, and your budget before getting started.
Outdoor dog kennels give your dog plenty of room to move around in and you peace of mind knowing they aren’t going to running the streets or worse, end up dead, because they escaped from the yard.
3. Keeping your dog out of specific areas.
Some folks have gardens they love while others love that maple tree and still others love their porch area.
Dog kennel fence can be used to keep your dog out of these areas as well as keeping your dog in the yard.
You can wrap it around the porch or that maple tree that you admire to keep your dog from soiling the area around them or tearing up things that you put on your porch.
