I have a brother & sister-in-law that show dogs so I have had the opportunity to spend some time at dog shows
(and, for the record “Best in Show” is not an accurate representation of most dog owners/shows – reality is MUCH worse)
I have seen a lot of different dogs, many that are pretty rare in the real world but I don’t recall ever seeing one of these.

LOL, so true. Also, the ratio of gay men -> lesbians was way off. My partner and I are fond of saying that if it weren’t for lesbians, most dog breeds would just die out.

@frankdawg: That’s fucking bleak, man. Not that I disagree, but I couldn’t laugh at that one.

Frank

Interestingly, not a single foam finger among the US supporters. Every other weird-ass costume under the sun, but no foam fingers.

Puppies, just like babies, can often look so solemn. ;-)

I’m not inclined to think of dogs as cute – but that little guy could change my opinion. more please, sir.
BTW the Onion has a story today that fits my world view perfectly. The last line particularly!

Our neighbors have a pointer who visits our dog from time to time. He is very peppy and playful and not-too-bright. Fun dogs.

@jayjaybear: Yeah. He definitely has the eye of the tiger look about him. That puppy means business.

I’ve asked before, but didn’t see a reply. What kind of dog is that? He sure is cute.

Puppy! I’m having serious puppy envy these days. But more pictures please (any puppy will do).
R-Jud
Aww, I saw a couple of youngish chocolate labs doing the doggy leap through long grass in the park this morning. It’s the picture of happiness.

That puppy is adorable. I love the alt text for the pic title. Fun, fun, fun, fun!

That puppy will put away his weight in steak every day until he grows up, at which point he will put away twice his weight in steak every day.
Just sayin’. (But he is a cutie!)

@elmo:
I was amazed at how open may of the gay people were at dog shows – that was at a time when it was very dangerous to be gay
@Gus:
Yeah, it is very bleak – But I’m the guy actively cheering on the Apocalypse.
