Nintendo's 'Wii Fit Plus' adds pet support


Good thing! My pup, Bailey, always tries to "help" me when I pull out the Wii Fit anyway, may as well use it to track her weight too!

In Rome, even the dogs get to cool off in the pool

In Rome, even the dogs get to cool off in the pool

Rome has opened its first doggy swimming pool. It's about a 19 inch deep pool, surrounded by grass and trees. What a wonderful idea!

Bulldog Get New Pool

Video: Bulldog Get New Pool

My pupster *loves* splashing around in her kiddie, err, puppy pool, but only when the hose is running. I'll have to dig up a video to share - it's a hoot!

But in the meantime, enjoy this sweet bulldog who is clearly torn between enjoying is wonderful new pool and showering thank yous on his person for giving it to him.

Prepare to Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Pets & Babies - The Valley Hospital Parent Education Classes

Expecting a new baby? Don't forget about your loving and loyal four-legged first baby, your cat or dog. There WILL be adjustments to make. The one-session Pets & Babies class, held in Paramus, NJ, teaches expectant parents tried and true methods to a happy home for all family members. Time after time, parents are heartbroken when their long-time pet is not as thrilled to see that squirming bundle of joy as everyone else is. With a little preparation and training, tails will be wagging when your new addition comes home.

Next session is May 19, from 7:30 - 9:30PM. Call 201-291-6151 to register or for more information.

Dilbert on Dog Food

Dilbert on Dog Food

Scott Adams posted some thoughts about what dogs will/won't eat. This line forced me to clean my monitor:

"How bad does your company's product have to be before your target market prefers eating its own poop?"

Dogs Like Halloween Too! (2)

While the People are Away, the Dogs will..Swim?

While the People are Away, the Dogs will Swim?
Seems that when the homeowners went out, the pool area got suspiciously wet. Wanting to find out why, they set up a webcam. Want to bet this isn't what they expected to find?

The dog certainly seems to be having fun! And can't you just hear the little saying "I'm gonna tell! You're going to get in trouble!" ;-)

Top 5 Dog Books For Kids

I've found that when I read to the young kids, or when helping the older ones learn to read, books about animals are a great resource. Kids are drawn to animal stories, plus it gives you an excuse to make all the funny noises you want!

Here are the top five favorites with the kids I know. Maybe your kids, or the kids-at-heart, will enjoy them too!


  • W Is for Woof: A Dog Alphabet - This engaging book has fabulous art work paired with interesting information, all while helping the young reader/listener learn their A, B, Cs. A joy!

  • May I Pet Your Dog?: The How-to Guide for Kids Meeting Dogs (and Dogs Meeting Kids) - Not every kid is lucky enough to grow up with a dog in their life. This book helps prepare kids for encounters of the doggie kind - teaching them how to ask for permission to greet a dog, how to greet a dog, and how to interact safely. Kids and adults can learn a lot from this one!

  • Alfred's Nose - This French Bulldogs doesn't like his nose. The story, illustrated with wonderful photographs of the author's Bulldog, follow the dog on his voyage of self-discovery and self-acceptance. Adults and children will get a giggle out of the cute costumes!

  • Stella, Unleashed: Notes from the Doghouse - Stella is pup who knows her own mind, and is more than willing to share her view of things with you. This box is a mix of colorful art and humorous verse sure to delight. Adults won't mind rereading this one again and again. Which is good, since the kids fall in love with Stella and want to hear the story over and over and over and, well, you get the idea.

  • The Kids Guide to Petiquette - Geared for the slightly older crowd (age 4-8), this book is a great resource for people with a new pet, or thinking about getting one.
