About Dogs and Everything Else Under the Sun, even Above It!
Dogs’ unique sensing ability extends to and from those close to them. They are the most social of all animals. Happy households, in general, enjoy happy dogs. Dogs do worry– a lot. Fear is maybe the most troublesome. A dog who only “uses” the car in a dead-end trip to the vet won’t go in […]

A while back I wrote about how, dogs especially, have an innate ability to sense things beyond the normal senses of smell, hearing, taste, feeling. This “beyond” sense of theirs appears to be quite beyond our understanding. To point out just a few:
Epileptics vulnerable to damaging seizures have been successfully matched with a canine companion […]

There is obviously more to our minds, pets included, than meets the eye. Inventors at times come up against the seemingly impossible. They are used to sleeping on it, and often can come up with a workable solution the next day. Some take a little longer. I’ve been there with Dog Master myself.

Before I begin, thank you Marmaduke for this cartoon.
Ok now…In my website I talk about the pet food recall. It’s still a hot topic and I’ll say off the bat the whole thing smells of a sordid conspiracy. Little wonder it has continued to unravel in the news.

Two kinds: yours and the neighbor’s. Also two kinds of barking dogs: the dog that knows and the dog that doesn’t know.
The dog that knows, knows that his people are competent and can take care of him/her and themselves. So this dog only has to let his/her owners know with just one or two barks. […]
