Thanks to People Pets for providing us with these great pictures of the first dog’s first year in the White House. What a cutie!
They say a picture’s worth a thousand words, so I’ll let them do the talking today.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
Welcome to a brand new feature on doggies.com. Each Sunday, I will pick a shelter somewhere in the United States (at random) and feature a dog who is waiting for a forever home. Even if you can’t take this particular dog, please consider going to your own local shelter and picking up a new member for your family.
Not sure where to go? You can search PetFinder’s shelter database here.

I was surfing on YouTube and came across this ad for the Kong Wobbler. This is one I just may have to try. It’s kind of like a Weeble toy (Remember? “Weebles wobble, but they don’t fall down”), only you stuff it with treats, and as the dog bats the toy around, the treats come flying out.
Has anyone tried this with multiple dogs? Wonder if they’d fight over it???
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
I’ve posted a couple of times about the Paw Pawties hosted on Twitter to raise funds for various dog-related charities. Have you ever participated in one?

I think it was Gandhi who said, “Be the change you want to see in the world.” So, all of us who attended the BlogPaws conference are being asked to join together to help raise $500 for Pets Without Parents in Columbus, OH. In the spirit of a Paw Pawty, I invite you to participate in helping this shelter.
I was in Newark, Ohio on business earlier this week, and had the opportunity to stay at a beautiful hotel called Cherry Valley Lodge. It was set up to look like an old time hunting lodge, but the art work hanging on the walls was something else.

During a minor league baseball game, Iams had a featured pet available for adoption from a local animal shelter. The dog, Mona, apparently really really really had to go. Watch the video to see what happens next.

I met so many people at the BlogPaws conference, and wanted to give you an opportunity to connect with some of them, too!

Most of what I learned at the conference had to do with making me a better blogger, but I did have a few things I wanted to share with you.
I just got back from the BlogPaws 2010 Conference in beautiful Columbus, Ohio. It was the first ever meeting of people who blog about pets. They expected 50 people and got over 250 participants! I had a great time, and it was wonderful to meet some of my readers and fellow bloggers. With the help of this group, hopefully I will become a better source of information for all of you. I even learned how to set up contests and sweepstakes, so you may see some of those coming soon!
