From the Twitter pages of the Canadian Forces in the US and Dan Lalonde:

Good day, and good dog!
If you haven’t been following the news, you may not know that British Columbia (as well as much of the US Pacific Northwest) are being hammered by flooding. I came across this today on my Twitter feed and wanted to share:
If you don’t need their help, please help them financially if you can.

Good day, and good dog!
If you haven’t figured it out, I choose a place to feature each Sunday by going alphabetically through a list of US states and Canadian territories / provinces. Today it was New Brunswick’s turn, and this has never happened before in the almost 14 years I’ve been writing this blog. There are NO dogs listed for adoption on Petfinder in the entire province! Zip. Nada. None.
(Lots of cats, though, if you’re interested.)
Woohoo!!!
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
Meet Pugsly! He’s a mix of Basset Hound and American Staffordshire Terrier. Here’s what he has to say about himself.
Nice to Meet You!! Hi my name is Pugsly! I may be on the short side but I am ready to show you how fast I can run!! I am a busy body so would be looking for someone who is active. I am still working on my manners but hey I am just a teenager after all!! I like other dogs and LOVE human companions! If you are interested in adopting me please call 587-272-0390 or email [email protected]
Pugsly is currently a guest of Companion Animal Outreach Society in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada. If you’re in those parts, why not contact the shelter to meet Pugsly and all of his friends.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
After last week’s terrorist attack in Toronto, where a van crashed into a crowd killing 10 people, The Star is reporting that comfort dogs have converged on Mel Lastman Square where the tragedy took place. Nearly 20 dogs from St. John’s Ambulance were on hand to allow those affected by the attack a chance to decompress with unconditional love.
Dogs are great in this role because they don’t judge, and they don’t even mind if you get your tears on them.
With apologies for this being a little delayed. Your erstwhile blogger has been a bit snowed under after taking in three orphaned kittens who must be bottle fed every three hours!
Doggies.com and breeders.net offers our sincerest condolences to all those who lost loved ones in Toronto.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
A little different take on our normal Shelter Sunday feature.
The Toronto Sun is reporting on Cupid, a Great Pyrenees-mix puppy found abandoned in the garbage. Cupid was born without front paws, but has now been fitted with prosthetics by Janice Olynich at Pawsability in Leaside. Continue reading Shelter Sunday: Cupid’s Valentine Miracle
At last report, a judge in Montreal had issued a 2-day stay on the enforcement of the city’s new breed-specific legislation. Now, he has extended that stay until the ASPCA’s challenge has made its way through the courts.
