Fritz is the POP DOG of the week!

Check out this weeks POP DOG, (to the right), my buddy Fritz.

He is a rescue with a heart of a champion! He had to endure a scary situation this week. Fritz has some severe skin allergies, and after a trip to the vet, he was accidentally given an overdose of his medication, and we nearly lost our dear friend.

But he's a fighter! And I'm happy to say he's getting back to his usual self. Way to go Fritz!!

If you get a chance, check out his Dogster page, for some cool video of this smart pup.

Fun Times at TOTO!

So today I was invited to a doggie BBQ that my pal Jessie was hosting from Dog Paddling Adventures. It was located at a pawesome dog park two cities over from me in Mississauga, ON. Totoredeca Dog Park. 4 acres of fully fenced in fun!!

I arrive with Denali and Starr and it was non-stop doggie madness! They had a pool area, a shady wooded area for great tree sniffing, a small dog park for the little guys to peacefully romp around without getting trampled and an agility field!

Did I mention BBQ??!! Mmmmmm...so many kids..but not too many dropped any goodies for us. Believe me, I tried. But my human did break me off a little piece of hot dog! YUM!

On top of all that, I met one of my Facebook/Dogbook pals, Rocco!!! Did I mention he is also a Manchester Terrier!! It was like looking in a mirror!! We romped, and our humans oooohhhed and aahhhhed over us! Talk about embarrassing!

Anyway, it was tonnes of fun, and I'm pretty pooped. Enjoy some of the pics we took today!

Denali, chillin' after her pawesome run at Lure Coursing!
Starr, the supermodel pose at its best!

Tragedy! Animal Control Officer Under Investigation!


You remember the story I posted about two weeks ago, where a Rotweiller was rescued by a Toronto Humane Society Investigator.

One week after rescuing Cyrus from a sweltering car, Agent Tre Smith has been disciplined by the Ontario SPCA for doing his job. The Ontario SPCA suspended his agent's license pending an internal review. He can still work at the Humane Society, but can not investigate animal cruelty cases.

Smith isn't taking the decision lightly. "I'm shocked and stunned and deeply saddened," he said.

After rescuing Cyrus, the dogs owner came out to check on his car and Agent Smith handcuffed him to the car until the police could arrive. In order to save Cyrus, he had to get him to the Humane Society's emergency services, so he left the dog's owner on the scene, handcuffed to the car.

That's where the trouble allegedly began. The dog's owner claims he was attacked by a few passerbys, who had witnessed Cyrus's rescue, as he waited for the police to arrive.

You can tell Agent Smith what you think personally by posting a comment on the Toronto Humane Society's Blog.

Breakthrough!!

So my human was home early today, and she took me out for a walk and romp in the football field behind our building.

I didn't realize she brought my little yellow frisbee with her for some action! Well I had a breakthrough! She's been practicing little games and trying to get me to catch the frisbee in the air...and today I did it twice!!

She was so very proud of me! I just hope i remember to do it next time! :o) I'll be a Disc Dog before your know it!

Angelina Jolie is Hot! and the Weimaraners ain't bad either!

Thanks to Pop Sugar for the photo!

Do you have a Dogfession to make??


Dogfessions is going to be the next big thing for dog owners to communicate on the web. This "pet" project was created for a fun way to confess things about your dog (or have your dog confess) to other dog owners and share funny moments only another dog owner could understand.

How does it work??

You create a fun postcard and send it in to Dogfessions. They will then post it on the website for all to see.

A few key points to making your dogfession:
Be honest.
Keep it simple.
Have fun with it!

And remember, Dogfessions are anonymous! (well, unless I recognize your photo! BOL!)

Here is an example of a recent postcard:

Dogfessions also hosts contests for cool prizes and have a charitable donations page for a local dog rescue.

So get out your glue and scissors pups! As they say, dogfessions are good for the soul!

Me and My Crazy World

I hear the words to the above song by the rap group Lost Boyz when I think of my two lady friends. What's a pup to do?

Here's a shot of my American Bulldog Beauty, Mimi. 75lbs of love!
Here's a shot of the devilishly delicious Denali. She's my little hot tamale spitfire!
----------------
Now I'm in love with these two chicks
I don't know which one to pick
My feelings for them both are getting thick

Now am I wrong cause I don't want to lose none of them
Am I confused cause I don't want to chose one of them

I can't escape this life that I'm living
I'm in the mix I'm in love with two women
Now that's word to moms, I got two honeys on my arms
and I don't want to let none of them go!
A shot of us all together at the dog park. *awkward*. They actually get in little tiffs if one is getting too much of my attention.

Your advice is appreciated!!

Dogs Named Simba - New Feature!


Randomly, I'll feature other dogs named Simba. I think my humans thought they were clever and original naming me...but I've discovered, a lot of other humans thought the same thing!

This Simba is a Golden Retriever/Chow mix. Totally adorable!

If you are a dog named Simba, or know one..email me a photo, and I'll post it here!
