Diesel the Rescue Dog
While we were wandering around the Stark County Fair yesterday, we saw a man walking this beautiful dog. His name is Diesel, and he’s a mix of Boxer and Pit Bull. Seems his new buddy, Dave, has a friend who works at the Humane Society. Diesel was about to be put down, but Dave decided he needed a new friend. What a great way to celebrate Labor Day weekend!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
A Labor Day Tribute to Dogs
All Dogs Are Working Dogs
Some dogs listen to children read
Some dogs for blind people, lead
Some dogs protect the herds
Some dogs chase after birds
Some dogs guard hearth and home
Some dogs on the farm, roam
Some dogs just sit and listen
Some dogs keep the cats hissin’
Some dogs keep your lap warm
Some dogs stay in the dorm
Some dogs work with the cops
Some dogs are companions for Pops
Some dogs will lower your stress
Some dogs will clean up a mess
Some dogs care for the sick
Some dogs chase after a stick
There’s all kinds of work for a dog
They even come on your morning jog
When you need a helper or a friend
On your dog you can depend
In rain, sleet, snow, or fog
We can always count on our dog!
Tuesday Top Ten: Watch Dogs
Most of these dogs are from the terrier group, and all but the Airedale and the Standard Schnauzer are small in stature, but big in personality.
Keep in mind that the watch dog is NOT a guard dog. The difference is that a watch dog will warn you there’s a stranger around, but a guard dog will go take care of the problem.
Obviously, this means that watch dogs will typically be barkers. If you live in a small apartment or have close neighbors, you’ll want to think twice before getting one of these breeds.
