Juicy Dog Couture: September 2009

Sunday, September 27, 2009

To have loved and then said farewell is better than to have never loved at all. For all of the times that you stooped and touched my head, fed me my favorite treat and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you. For the care that you gave to me so unselfishly. For all of these things I am grateful and thankful. I ask that you grieve not for the loss but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each other’s lives. My life was fuller because you were there, not as owner, but as my friend. Today, I am as I was in my youth. The grass is always green, butterflies flit among fthe flowers and the sun shines gently down upon all of God’s creatures. I can run, jump and play and do all of the things that I did in my youth. There is no sickness, no aching joints and no regrets and no aging. We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that togetherness is forever. You live in our hearts as we do in yours. Companions such as you are very rare and unique. Don’t hold the love that you have within yourself. Give it to another like me and then I will live forever. For love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as we are.

Why Dogs Sniff Butt

Whether it is a new acquaintance or old one, they meet up and immediately run to the rear. Most people believe it is their way of saying “hello.“ However, this is a myth. Dogs sniff each other’s butts for a much deeper reason – to get to know one another.

Dogs have two anal glands in their rectums, which emit a strong scent. Dogs sniff each other’s butts in order to get a whiff of it. The aroma they smell gives them detailed information about the other dog.

The aroma emitted from a dog’s butt tells other dogs vital information about him. It tells his sex, health status and temperament. Therefore, on a first meeting, two unacquainted dogs know if they want to befriend each other or not. So what does that mean to us? It means we need to trust our dog’s instincts.

You must trust your pet dog’s initial feelings about another dog. If he doesn’t like him, it is probably for a good reason. The other dog didn‘t pass the sniff test. And remember, dogs are just like us. They don‘t like being forced into a relationship with another dog they hate. So let nature take its course. Let your dog choose his own friends because in the long run he knows best.

Labrador Chow Mix Loves To Swing

“These hilarious pictures show how Sara the dog loves nothing better than to spend her days on the swings at her local park. In one of the weirdest canine behaviours, the Labrador-Chow cross even goes beserk with excitement when her loving owners mention the word ’swing’. She even prefers it to going for a walk. While most would expect a dog’s favourite activity to be chasing rabbits or sniffing around woods – happy Sara almost seems to smile as she contentedly rocks back and forth.”
