Meet Petra! Petra is currently living with Canine Castaways in Arcadia, FL. I was fascinated by this dog because of her parentage. Dachshund & Black Lab…really? I’m just trying to imagine the physics of her conception. But I digress. Here’s what Canine Castaway’s website has to say about this beauty.

Hoping you enjoyed Cooper’s singing earlier in the week. He talks a lot, but I’d never heard him sing until Jimmy took out the harmonica. Made me wonder – does your dog sing?
Uh-oh! This does NOT look good.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
Jimmy was messing around on his harmonica this afternoon. Can’t decide if Cooper liked it or hated it so much he had to sing along.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
Not that I’m all that crushed over one less puppy mill in the world, but this is a terribly sad story from DFW Animal Rescue.

I was asked recently to check out DogProducts.org. Although the site has lots of items for sale, none caught my interest as much as this book. Don’t you just love the title? “The Cure for Useless Dog Syndrome”.
Just got word from my niece Allison that she is working at a place in Cincinnati called Dogtown. It sounds like a really neat place, so I wanted to tell all my Tri-State readers about it.
Dogtown Cincinnati is a fun, interactive daycare and kennel-free boarding business located minutes from downtown and Clifton. We provide dogs and cats with a home-like and strict environment. Our goal is to send your dog home tired and with good manners!
Here’s my top ten list of why you should try it out!

This is a video of Stryker during training.
Something about this story just tickled my funny bone. A woman from Los Angeles was driving through Solon, Ohio (near Cleveland). She was pulled over for speeding and the human cops found her to be impaired, so they called in a dog to search the car.
Sure enough, Stryker found a bag of Jolly Ranchers that was labeled as containing marijuana for medical use only. (Remember she lives in California, where that’s legal.) But, since she also blew a 0.067 on her breathalyzer test, I guess she may have been more than a little impaired, and she was arrested.
Thanks, Stryker, for keeping our streets safe from candy!
BTW, the Solon police department is currently soliciting donations to care for the K-9 officers on their force.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
Meet Alvin! I have to confess I picked him to feature this week because he is almost identical to my Kayla. He is currently residing with K-9 Lifesavers in Washington DC. Here’s what their website has to say about this handsome boy!
