Albuquerque Dog Eats the Family Jewels
KOB-TV reports on a 10-month old Basset Hound who found a $4,500 wedding ring just a little too tempting.
Rachelle Atkinson had a habit of leaving her wedding ring on her nightstand while she slept. Only when she woke up a few weeks ago, the ring was gone! Suspecting that the dog, Coraline, might have taken it, they spent the next 10 days searching through her droppings, but had no luck.
They finally took Coraline to the vet for an X-ray and found the ring lodged in her stomach and not going anywhere. So, the vet inserted a tool down Coraline’s throat to retrieve it.
We’re happy to report everything came out okay!
Until next time,

Little Girl vs. The Lion
I know this isn’t strictly dog-related, but it’s too awesome a video not to share!
A little girl was watching a lion try to eat his breakfast at the Wellington Zoo in New Zealand. The lion, Malik, who is apparently prone to mood swings, showed the little girl exactly what he thought of her interruption. Watch the video for three-year-old Sophia Walker’s reaction (or lack thereof) to the huge, grumpy lion:
Does Your Dog Know What You’re Thinking?
Have you ever gotten the feeling that your dog knows what you’re about to do? A recent study completed by Jozsef Topal of the Institute for Psychological Research at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences shows that dogs track our eye movements to decide on our intent.
