Earlier this week I posted the story of Buddy, who went along for the ride – OUTSIDE of the vehicle – when his papa was taken away in an ambulance. Which begs the question, what lengths would your dog go to in order to stay with you when you left the house?
I posted last week about an innovative program run by some shelters and resorts that allows vacationers to borrow a dog for companionship during their stay. Would you consider doing this on your next vacation?
We’ve all seen them – the really cute Budweiser commercials that have adorable puppies interacting with the Clydesdales or the Honda commercials that have those beautiful Weims sitting in the van.

Did you have a chance to look at the dog beds I talked about last Saturday? Some of them were truly over the top, especially when you consider that you’re talking about an animal who can survive on a bed of straw or even less. What about your dog? Do you pamper her with fancy bedding?
I posted a week or so ago the top 7 dog-friendly cars as ranked by AutoTrader.com.

We posted some information on the psychology of dog bites earlier in the week, and it set me to wondering: has your dog ever bitten anyone?
