Dragging a dog behind a car a MISDEMEANOR?!

Cute Puppy

Cute Puppy

This makes me soooo mad!
Larry Chambers, a man in his sixties
from Chicago dragged his 8-month-old puppy behind his car as he drove.

According to Southtownstar.com, police arrested this creep when an off-duty Chicago police officer saw the poor puppy being dragged behind Chambers’ car.

Chambers´excuse? He was "mad" at his pup! and that´s why he decided to tie the dog to the back of his car to punish it.

"This is disturbing, especially by a person of this age," the police officer said.

Chambers was charged with a mere misdemeanor! He should be doing hard time as far as I´m concerned!

This pillar of society also resisted arrest and battery because he punched the off-duty officer in the chest, Gainer said.

Chi owners: please be wary of big dogs!

My chihuahua, unharmed and sleeping happily

My chihuahua, unharmed and sleeping happily

A word of warning to all you owners of small dogs: never ever leave them alone or even take your eyes off them if there´s a big dog you don´t know running around!

We were badly rattled when a big dog came up to our chihuahua Lucky and out of nowhere bit her. Hard!

>>>Serena ´s wrath of Con graduation dress

>>>Star Trek dogs rolling in dough

Lucky yelped, we yanked her away and started screaming at the dog and it´s SMILING owner. I could have seriously done some damage to that horrible man, if I hadn´t been too busy trying to calm down Lucky. Creep.

People with unreliable, badly raised dogs should either keep them on a leash or keep them away from other dogs. Actually, they shouldn´t be allowed to own dogs in the first place!!!! It just never occurred to me that anyone would be so irresponsible as to let a vicious dog just run free where there are small children and other dogs.

We were peacefully listening to some music in a village square and this just completely ruined our night.

Luckily, our chi was unharmed and just came away with a bad scare, but even now, when I think of what might have happened, it makes my blood run cold. So please, be more careful than we were and keep an eye out for dogs running loose.

Russian dog girl baffles welfare workers

Russian Girl raised by family pets

Russian Dog Girl was raised by family pets

A 5-year-old girl behaving like a dog has caused a dramatic sensation in Russia. The girl was taken into care from her home in a Siberian city after child welfare workers found her in a filthy appartment, unwashed and barking.

She´d been living with her father and grandfather, but they had never allowed her to go outside, causing her to be more at ease with the family´s dogs than with humans. The girl is unable to speak and can only bark.

>>>Serena ´s wrath of Con graduation dress

>>>Star Trek dogs rolling in dough

‘For about five years the girl was ‘brought up’ by several dogs and cats and not once went outside,’ a statement from the child care workers said. The child has been taken into care, but is still showing dog behavior, such as lapping up her food, barking and jumping up at people.

The family is facing criminal charges.

Pink´s dog naming troubles

Friday, 22 May, 2009

Pink and her dog Fred

Pink and her dog Fred

Well, that´s what you get when you call a dog a dirty word! Singer Pink says her dog, which she called, ehm, let´s say Fudger, is a happier, more relaxed animal since her dad took him in and called him Fred.

Apparently Pink wasn´t shy about shouting out her dog´s name in public places, such as restaurants and supermarkets, much to the dismay of other guests and shoppers.

>>>Paris Hilton ´s Tinkerbell fright

Anyway, Fred´s happy now. Not sure whether it´s the change of name or the fact that dad is ruling the roost now that  helped, but Fred does seem a more appropriate name, doesn´t it?

Paris Hilton´s Tinkerbell fright

Sunday, 17 May, 2009
Paris & Tinkerbell

Paris & Tinkerbell

Imagine someone being mean enough to call a person they in all probability don´t even know and tell them that their dog is dead! This is what happened to none other than Paris Hilton last week. In the middle of the night some prankster phoned and told her that her beloved chihuahua Tinkerbell had been run over by a car!

>>>Chad Michael Murray definitely leaving One Tree Hill

>>>World´s oldest dog turns 21!

I think this is really mean. Apparently, Paris freaked out so badly that the neighbors called the police, because they heard a lot of screaming. Paris and boyfriend Doug Reinhardt explained to the cops that she was screaming because she was so overwrought and he was yelling to try and calm her down.

I am a bit confused about that: I would be very upset if someone did that to me, but at some point she must have realised that her dog was still alive? That ought to have calmed her down, right? And it was the second time in one week that neighbors called the police. That either means really overzealous neighbors or Paris might want to invest in some soundproofing to drown out her screams!

Anyway, luckily Tinkerbell is fine!

Glenn Close & dogs

Now here´s a good cause if ever I saw one! Proud dog owner Glenn Close was on Oprah talking about Puppies Behind Bars, a charity that let´s inmates train dogs to help veterans suffering from PTSD.

It ´s such a great idea! It works wonders for the prisoners, who have someone to take care of and love, and it really helps those veterans! F/X star Glenn told Oprah; "You’ll see these big guys saying that they never knew what love was."

Glenn loves her own dogs, Jake and Bill, and they often visit her on the set. Sometimes they even sleep at her feet during filming!

world´s oldest dog turns 21!

world´s oldest dog turns 21!

Imagine being a whopping 147 years old. In dog years that is, but still! A dachshund called Chanel has been named the world´s oldest dog by the Guinness Book of Records and today she celebrated her 21st birthday. I guess that means she could have her first legal glass of champagne now that she is of age!

Star Trek Dog Costume

Star Trek Dog Costume

The Playboy bunny mansion is about to start facing some stiff competition from the Star Trek doggie mansion! The dogs have inherited a fortune and can spend the rest of their days swanning by the pool.

Majel Roddenberry left her puppies a lump sum in trust, a whopping four million dollars, and their very own doggie mansion, a serious multi million dollar building. And someone to take care of them as long as they live.

Whoever said it was a dog´s life?
