Life doesn’t get any better than the opening day for college football. Rosie and Penny are settled in with me, hoping I’ll drop some nacho crumbs.
Enjoy the day! (And go Bucks! O…H!)
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

AKC Temperament Testing
From the Dog Lady’s mailbag: The American Kennel Club (AKC®), the world’s largest purebred dog registry and leading advocate for dogs, is proud to announce the AKC Temperament Test™ (ATT). The ATT is open to all breeds, including mixed breed dogs.

National Dog Day
In case you haven’t heard, today is National Dog Day. (Like every day isn’t dog day, right?) How did you celebrate? I gave Rosie and Penny a little of my ice cream, but I couldn’t get my camera out quick enough before they had it devoured. Somehow, Penny ended up with a bit of ice cream on her hindquarters, but Rosie took care of that pretty quickly.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

The Story of Judy
Judy was the mascot of several ships in the Pacific. She was captured by the Japanese in 1942 and taken to a prison camp. There she met Leading Aircraftsman Frank Williams who shared his small portion of rice with her.

She never whimpered or betrayed her presence to the guards. The next day, the ship was torpedoed. Williams pushed Judy out of a porthole in an attempt to save her life, even though there was a 15 feet drop to the sea. He made his own escape from the ship, not knowing if Judy had survived.

Does Your Dog Drink Wine?
Perhaps his day drinking is your fault, Karen. (Why is it always Karen?)
