Ok, Dogsters, we had some good entries for the caption contest last week but the overall the activity level was a bit lower than usual — could be the summer vacation season kicking in.

It’s the first week of summer, and water dogs are looking forward to some serious splashing around under sunny skies. But dontcha just hate the resulting wet, stinky collar?

Question: I have 3 dogs and they are itching a lot and showing signs of allergies. Is their dog food causing this? They have been on it for years. I noticed it getting worse recently and we just hit the hot summer months in FLorida. Not sure if it is something they are eating [...]

In an RV on the streets of Monrovia, California lives a 90-pound dog named Jack and his owner, Brian Blundell, who always made sure his pup was fed, either by sharing his food or finding some dog food at the 99 cent store. In the three years he’s been homeless, Blundell never imagined life [...]
