Wow. That’s quite the neighbour who would kill someone for messing up his lawn. Joshua Funches was walking his puppy, the puppy ended up peeing on Charles J. Clements’s lawn, Clements came out with a pistol and yelled at Funches and then shot him. I know it’s good to take pride in one’s home, but …

Who Knew Some Dog Hair Could Save The Earth?
You know, every time I hear about this whole oil spill thing, I feel this crushing feeling of helplessness. I didn’t even want to blog about it, because what could I say? “holy shit that’s a lot of oil. What a catastrophe.” And what the hell does that do? I guess I could say that …

Aaa! The Gay Dog Will Hump My Leg!
What the hell? That’s all I could manage when Ann sent me this doozer. Ian Jolly and his guide dog decided to go out to a Thai restaurant in Australia, but he was denied entry, not only because they didn’t realize his dog was a guide dog, but they had a special objection because they …
Janice Want Some Handcuffs?
You have to be drunk beyond drunk to be unable to stand up, speak to officers, or remove a parrot from your forehead, even when it’s biting you. But apparently, that was the state of Janice McCoy-Nuttle when cops arrived. But she was sure able to hurl an inhaler at her husband. Too bad it …

Loose Standards On Loose Dogs
After that brief interlude of drunken stupidity, here’s another serious post. Jen sent me this, and it said we were free to circulate it, so here’s my attempt to circulate. I remember Helen McFadyen. I found her blog when I was talking about that horrible letter-writing campaign from CNIB that had Jim Sanders’s name falsely …
Elmhirst Packaging: Making It Easier To Be Green
Here comes a post to make up for me not posting on Thursday to mark the anniversary of Trix coming home. At least this one’s only 3 days late. Remember when I ranted about the hell I went through over mutt mitts? Well, it came time to get new bags, and hell if I was …

Happy Belated Birthday Trix
Ok, here comes the post in honour of Trix’s birthday. On April 9, she turned 5. My pooch is 5! Nobody believes me that she’s that old, but she is. I can scarcely believe that it’s been three years that I’ve had her. But the blog doesn’t lie, hahah! So let’s do a general update. …
A Trixie Dog Day Post, Long Overdue
You know what’s sad? This year, I failed to blog about Trix on any of her big days, which is a horrible shame. I made a promise to myself that I would always have a post up about her marking each of her dog days and birthdays and anniversaries of her coming home with me. …
