Dogs make the best of friends, especially when you’re a kid. We all remember our first dog and the adventures that we shared with them. It’s definitely a special feeling to have a bond with a beloved dog. That is something that we never forget, and we carry the fond memories with us for a long time. Even as an adult, I can still recall the good times that I spent with my dog. The times that we spent together were usually uneventful, but every so often she would be my partner in crime. But we never did anything too

It’s common knowledge that dogs have brown eyes. Some dogs, like Australian Shepherds or Huskies will have blue ones. But on average, all dogs have brown eyes. And they’re quite pretty too. My dad never liked to admit it, but once or twice we’d catch him singing Van Morrison’s “Brown Eyed Girl” to my dog whenever the song was on the radio. She, like many other dogs, had adorable brown eyes. But there are occasions when nature will take over and give our dogs something really special. On rare occasions, you’ll find dogs who have both blue and brown eyes

There is no better evening spent than on the couch with your dog. Their warm little bodies and sweet personalities make them the best cuddle buddies ever. It’s no wonder that we will often prefer spending time with our dogs than with other people. But have you ever noticed that when your dog decides to curl up beside you, they often contort themselves into tight little balls of fur? They’ll sometimes do a circle or two around the sofa before they plant themselves on the couch and curl up into the adorable little balls that we love to photograph. And

For as much as we know about dogs, there are still some things that are being discovered. One of the mysteries that we’re always trying to crack is to understand exactly how our dogs’ aging works – particularly when it comes to calculating their real age in human years. While there are some that say you take your dog’s age and then multiply it by seven to get their human years, that might now always be the way to do it. For one, this actually happens to be inaccurate as Jesse Grady, a veterinarian with Mississippi State University has pointed out. 

It was quite a shock for farmer Cristian Mallocci when his dog, Spelacchia, gave birth to her litter of puppies. The mixed-breed pooch gave birth to five healthy pups. The first four were all born with pristine white fur. But there was something very different about the fifth little guy. He came out all green! Mallocci, who was runs a farm in Italy with his brother-in-law, is no stranger to having dogs. He has eight of them. However, this is the first time that he’s ever witnessed a dog that was actually born green. Given the little male puppy’s vibrant

The age-old belief is that dogs like stinky feet. It can only seem like the logical explanation for why our dogs seem to be obsessed with our shoes. They sniff them, they’ll sometimes roll around on them, and occasionally, they’ll chew on them. I remember my dog would always insist on stuffing her nose into every single one of our shoes whenever we’d get home and take them off. It’s an interest in our shoes that all our dogs seem to share, and it’s definitely something odd to witness. Most annoying is when our dogs try to turn our shoes

If we’re pet owners, there is a high probably that some of us have an Instagram or some other social media dedicated to our pets. And if we don’t, we at least feature a lot of pictures of them on our own social media pages. It’s hard to resist the desire to constantly take pictures of our pets – they’re irresistibly cute! All of us know the feeling of having hundreds of pictures on our phone’s camera roll. But one proud dog owner took things to the next level with her brilliant photo creation.  Simone Giertz came up with the

Dogs are amazing companions. They have such a calming and loving presence that you can’t help but feel invigorated with positivity when you’re around them. That is why they make such wonderful companions for people who are struggling with mental health problems, such as anxiety or PTSD. And many members of the armed forces will end up developing such problems, which is why having service dogs for them is such a good thing.  For Karen Louise O’Neal, her 5-year-old English Box Head Black Lab named Patton means the world to her. O’Neal spent 20 years in the Navy working as an

According to a study from the University of Edinburgh, new information is showing the condition in dogs known as limber tail could be a result of both genetic and geographic factors. Limber tail is the non-medical name given to the condition called Acute Caudal Myopathy. This is when the dog’s tail goes limp as a result of them being unable to move it due to pain. It can also be called swimmer’s tail, water tail, and cold tail – all names that can give some insight into how these injuries occur. Limber tail will manifest itself in the muscles at

Dogs mean so much to us. When they come into our lives they always change it for the better. And when they pass on from this world, it’s always a devastating blow. There is no replacing them. They are family. And recently Reese Witherspoon shared the sad news that her beloved pooch had passed away. Witherspoon isn’t just an actress, producer, and designer, but she’s also a proud mom and a self-proclaimed “dog mom.” In the past, she’s been quite open about how much her pooches mean to her. Unfortunately, the actress posted on her social media about the loss
