Dog Activities

Bonus Friday Funny: Dog Olympics

Olympic rings

From the Twitter feed of Thoughts of Dog (@dog_feelings):

i made a list of events. i think should be added. to the olympics

2. the 100m hardwood floor slide
9. least time between naps
3. walking on the opposite side of a tree. so your human has to switch the hand they are holding the leash with
6. floor routine. but it’s belly rubs

Sounds about right.

Until next time,
Good deal and good dog!

Dog News

I was wrong!

I told you a few days ago that I was following The First Dogs on Twitter, which I thought was some sort of official account set up for Champ and Major. I should have known that the people in the White House had better things to do than to curate a Twitter account about the dogs. There is no ‘official” account for the dogs or for the coming First Cat at this time. Everything you see on Twitter currently (and there are several accounts) are fan pages.

It does appear that @FLOTUS will ocassionally tweet about the dogs.

I regret spreading misinformation.

There’s not a blue check of authenticity yet, but I believe the place to go for tweets from Champ and Major Biden is @TheFirstDogs. Rumor has it they are not at the White House yet; they’re waiting for everything to calm down a bit.

There’s also an account for @TheFirstCatUS, for the promised rescue cat.

Can’t wait to start seeing what’s on the minds of all the first pets. No word on who is helping them with the typing. It’s tough to tweet when you don’t have thumbs!

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

The Feel Good Page

I’m kind of new to Twitter, having turned there for my social media after my Facebook account was irretrievably hacked, so I apologize if I’m telling you something you already know.

If you use Twitter, you need to check out The Feel Good Page (@akkitwts). Every day, there are videos of animals (and sometimes people) that will just make you feel better about the world. I don’t know how to embed tweeted videos here, so I’ll have to just post a link to my favorite one so far, captioned “work smarter, not harder.”

After you watch the video, be sure to follow the page.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

@DogFeelings

If you’re a tweeter, you might already be familiar with the handle @DogRates, the page that has you submit pictures of your dog and the owner of the page rates your dog. Most get ratings of 13/10 (13 out of ten) or something similar because all dogs are good dogs.

Now, from the same people who brought you @DogRates, we have @DogFeelings, which purports to tell us about Thoughts of Dog. Continue reading @DogFeelings →
