Hachi DVD is now out
March 12, 2010
I posted several months ago about the movie being made with Richard Gere about the story of Hachi, but I never saw it come out in theaters. Maybe it premiered to less-than-favorable crowds and wasn’t shown in my area, but I saw a commercial last night stating that the DVD and Blue-Ray disc are now available.

Have you checked out PetTube yet? Similar to YouTube, this site has videos of all the crazy things pets do. For example, my brother sent me this one, of Zeke the hound playing basketball:

Saturday Survey: What Role Does Your Dog Play
January 30, 2010
I reported Thursday on the results of a poll which asked what role people saw their pet as playing in their lives. Now it’s your turn.
Your Dog’s Role
January 28, 2010
USA Today recently reported on a survey commissioned by Bissell Homecare and done by Kelton Research. The survey asked 650 pet owners what role their pet played in their lives.
66% reported the pet was their best friend (not sure what this says about the quality of human friends / spouses / significant others)
59% said the pet was a snuggle buddy (this is my Cooper, to a T)
37% used the pet as a guardian (does this mean the dog is guarding the house or that the dog is controlling the person’s finances & looking out for his/her well-being?)
33% viewed the pet as a child (this would fit my brother)
25% saw the pet as therapist (maybe Snoopy should have been in Lucy’s psychiatry booth)
Come back Saturday when we’ll p0se the same question to you, our valued readers.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

If you haven’t heard, the movie Marmaduke is due out in theaters June 4th. USA Today and 20th Century Fox are co-sponsoring a contest that could allow your dog to appear at the end of the movie.
One of the themes of the movie is that Marmaduke must learn how to surf, so the contest is looking for dogs who have faced and conquered great challenges.
To enter:Â submit a one-minute action video of your dog at work or at play via the newspaper’s Paw Print Post, which also has detailed rules for the contest.

It’s Me or the Dog

Have you seen the TV show called “It’s Me or the Dog“? I think it’s on Animal Planet, and I think my son has been spending way too much time watching it.
