Eric's Dog Blog.

Most understated line of article:

“We just want to make sure he’s on the right path, if you know what I mean,” [Sheriff] O’Keefe said.

Ummmm, yeah...someone get the boy some help and get that poor dog away from him.

Are they really hypo-allergenic??? I may or may not have a husband who is allergic to furry animals and I want to suggest dogs that he may not be allergic to...

I've heard acupuncture can work too.

Any other ideas?

'Dog collars' have never seemed sicker.

Sadness.

I love how the article begins...all dramatic...

Call him Robo-Dog.
He is a 3-year-old German shepherd named Mason and he is quietly leading a CSI-like revolution in the way Bay State law enforcement agencies search for missing children and criminal suspects.

I can't quite figure out if this is real or if she's just a crazy Aussie.

Shirley has made a reincarnation pact with her pooch.

She believes it...do you??:

Ofcom said Bring Your Husband To Heel was a "humorous take" on relationship self-improvement programmes.

More than 200 viewers complained to the BBC about the show and 35 people contacted Ofcom to say the programme was "demeaning and offensive".

If only husbands were as well behaved as our pooches!! As long as our dogs are house-trained of course...

Pooch is given sight!!

The company says the audience for the disgusting drinks are 9-year-olds to 15-year-olds "who love to gross out the parents."

"Dog fans love the Dog Drool," Metz said. "We got a letter from a lady who was serious when she said because we have something for the dog people we need one for the cat people.

Thanks to Peter Green for the notice.

Easy there, Bambi!!!

100 stiches...

:-(

"Sometimes you have to be a good neighbor, and rescuing a dog falls into that category," Miller said.

Oh Bucky Boo, I'm couldn't be happier for you...I'm sure you're pretty psyched too.

Oh my, there is no cuter pooch:

why is this picture kinda creepy??

A pooch is like therapy:

t all started about seven years ago when Zelda's owner and manager, Carol Gardner, of Portland, Ore., found herself, at 52, facing divorce, heaping debt, unemployment and two broken legs. Her divorce attorney, in an attempt to cheer her up, told her, "you need to get either a therapist or a dog."

The more she thought about it, the better the dog sounded, she says. She saw an ad for an English bulldog, who "was the mirror image of how I felt," she recalls. A puppy "who needed love, just like I did."

The saddest looking super hero:

Thanks to my brother Ed Harner for the pic!

It'll fall if I will it to fall. It'll fall if I will it to fall.

Thanks to my friend Susan Short for sending along these pics!

Boy do I have the perfect gift for a child this holiday season!! If you end up buying one for you and only you, you should congratulate yourself on having found your inner child! Yay! :-)

It's a children's story about sibling rivalry...

told in real photos of golden retrievers!! Like this cuteness!!

AND THIS CUTE??!!

This photo is from this wonderful gallery of photos to make you laugh and go aaaawww!

As a dog site, I thought it my duty to report on some dog business:

This dogg...

is going to start selling these dogs!

Now isn't that interesting and aren't you grateful I told you??

This is very sweet.

Look at how HAPPY and CUTE she is! I've always had a soft spot for German Shepherds...how can you not?!

There are so many things wrong with this picture/story/situation.

It seems that cooking shows are not a nice way to entertain the pooches.

Do you also have a "velcro" dog??

I'd take this "velcro" dog any day!

That doesn't sound silly at all!

This is just too good to pass up just because I know you all love dogs and hate cats and I'm certain there are no in-betweens...

Can someone please make a Dog News??!! Maybe ModernPooch will have to step up to the plate!

Via AndreaHarner.com, lover of all cute, furry animals....of course dogs rule and cats drool.

do your research, says the ASCPA!

We are proud to announce that ModernPooch reader Zippy who was the winner last year was a dashing 2nd Place Winner this year!!

Staring at Zippy here, I'm really not sure why she didn't take 1st place again!!

Check out her very own website!

Thanks to Zippy's mom Kelly for the info and the ugly dog lovin'!

For the record: ModernPooch LOVES ugly dogs. Yay!

The story begins with the rescuers finding this poor little guy that someone had already taken under their wing but weren't equipped to adopt;

so Ralphie, scared and nearly starved joined the rescuers...

I wouldn't think anything could live thru this...

but this kind lady did..

Dog #2..... scared, but safe :)

and no longer alone!

"Instant Buddies"

Add two more beagles...

The more the merrier...

hmmmmm- a new traveler is added to the mix...
(note: the cat coming over the seat to visit...) how is this going to work???

It's going to work just fine, thank you!

Life is Good!

Hope this brings a little sunshine to your day!!!

Thanks to Jodi for the content!

Even tough-guy "Soprano" James Gandolfini recently bought one of the black-nosed rascals.

"Everyone is clawing for them, it's ridiculous," said Brian Incovaia of Metro Puppy Kennels in Forest Hills, Queens. "I get people calling left and right for them and basically you get the equivalent of breeding a Marc Jacobs bag with a Louis Vuitton."

Although you all know where ModernPooch stands on buying pedidgree or bred dogs versus adopting from the pound, these guys are so cute! Google Images samples:

It's not too late!!

Enter your pooch in the World's Coolest Dog & Cat Show!!

I want to just smother this little cutie to pieces!!! I'll hug his owner too but just for the record I'm in love with Remi, the two year old terrier.

Read about Remi's great adventure.

Re-Ha Chili Bean, was stolen at gunpoint??!!

What is happening? I don't think I understand things anymore. All I know is that Chili Bean needs to be found...even if it means holding someone up at gunpoint...j/k.

What's not to love about this long haired, dashing life saver??

We at ModernPooch are always ahead of the game...that's why it's only November 1 and here were are helping you with gift ideas for your dog lover friends!!! We also feel strongly that your non-dog lover friends should be empty-handed this holiday season...

:-)
