We recently became aware of a cat in need of a forever home. He was living with a nice family who loved him and cared for him. Unfortunately for the family and the cat, allergies flared up and the cat needed a new home. We are very happy to welcome Flash (the cat) into our home.
We got Flash on a Sunday afternoon. We brought him home and let him wander about at his leisure while Digby and Benny were outside unaware that we added a new member to our household. We had a plan for introducing the dogs to the cat. We wanted to make sure the cat would be okay and not too scared when they first met. Read more »

While surfing the web today I became curious about Official State Dogs. I was surprised to discover that it appears there are only 9 states with official state dogs. Only 9 out of 50? Kansas would make it ten but their state dog isn’t official yet.
I have to admit that I never thought about this until now. Since dogs have been our pets for the past 12,000 years, I want to know why there aren’t more U.S. states with official dogs. Read more »

I was interested in how many and what kinds of dogs have had the pleasure of living at the White House. It’s pretty interesting. I enjoyed looking at the names of these dogs.
Seems some of our Presidents had a good sense of humor! Read more »

When I first heard that Barack Obama’s children, Malia and Sasha, wanted to adopt a dog, I thought that was great. I think everyone should experience the joy that dogs can bring to our lives especially for kids. I’ve been following this story in the news because I was interested in how the family will decide and which kind of dog they would adopt. Read more »

Calif. woman allegedly abducts dog over barking
Two days ago Associated Press provided a story about Spike, a white Maltese, who lived in Hemet, California. It seems Spike was a talkative Maltese who allegedly annoyed his neighbor often enough that the next door neighbor filed multiple noise complaints which escalated to court. During the civil court hearing, a Riverside County judge found that the barking dog claims were unfounded. Read more »

Plush Toys and Tough Toys
New toys have arrived at DB Dog Shop recently. We gathered a few different kinds to match some discriminating tastes among dogs. Of course we had to test them out a bit. This caused Benny to keep running into the stock room every time he heard a squeak. I, of course, just laughed at him while hiding the toy behind my back.
