I think this thing is 10 years old. Do you think I should still remove and discard this sticker? What if there's something important under there?

#NationalDogDay Hedy has decided that she's going to sleep through National Dog Day today. Great choice, honestly.

American in Europe here. I have a window. It opens like this, and that is the full opening. Even if window units were easy to get (they are not), one us not going to fit there. Sash windows are pretty uncommon, to be honest, and mostly in older building that haven't been retrofitted.
The opening of a sitting room window in Ireland. It opens maybe 10 cm outward. It will not fit even the tiniest window unit.

Look at this this thing from "On Guard Bunco", a 1974 educational short. It's like a toy, but appears to be a road legal vehicle we aren't meant to find surprising.
An old lady is driving a very tiny, boxy car. It look very flimsy and funny. It is silver with a white top, and no windows. I would love to drive one.

Look at this amazing view I walked to! And look at the narrow footpath on a fast road I had to walk down to get here! (it could be such a nice place, 10 minutes after this I was in the village getting lunch.) #WarOnCars

I have a big, non-lab dog who is convinced she is a little yappy dog*, and could almost be a comedy duo by herself (also she steals shoes). *according to breed descriptions, sighthounds rarely bark, but she refuses to read breed descriptions.

A brown and white sighthound lies in a way that cannot possibly be comfortable, and us somewhat difficult to describe. Like, he head is next to her hip but also on the blanket she's lying on? And all four legs just going the other direction?

I like this headline, because the wording kind of implies that now that the wildcat has been identified, they can start looking for its murderer.

To me, nothing captures the arbitrary capriciousness of life like dogs. Hedy was found stray and injured in a bog by hikers when she was a year old. Now, almost 5, she lives a life of comfort, and her favourite thing is going to coffee shops. Why should this happen to some dogs, but others?

Yeah, If you do it right, dogs love crates. Ours got her crate so she would stop guarding the couch. It's where she takes most of her naps now.

I'll be honest, Hedy's time as Head of Security has been mixed. Sure, zero burglaries. However, there's been a 300% increase in false alarms at 3 am, a 250% increase in shoe theft, and a full 800% increase in toast you turned your back on for a second being stolen. #dogs

Quicksand exists! I was as surprised to learn this as anyone else, but this park has multiple quicksand warnings. Turns out you just need to learn where to look.

Dies anyone else have a dog who has memorised the location of every dog friendly cafe within walking distance, and will occasionally refuse to walk anywhere but towards them, resulting in lots of undignified pulling and dragging, or is our dog special?
A brown and white sighthound stands in a park halfway between her home and a cafe, and makes it clear she is not going to turn around and go home, at least not without a fight that will be very amusing to onlookers, and annoying to her owner.

I remember when my greyhound mix Hedy (pictured) was younger, she tried to get a basset to play with her. (Should note that while she's taller, she only weighs about 45 lbs). She jumped up, tried to tackle the dog, and jumped back. He gave her a disgusted look and moved slowly out of play range.

When we first got Hedy, there was some debate about her age. Various people put it at 1 year, 18 months and 2 years. (We eventually went with 1 year). One sign she was still young was that her paws were still mostly pink. Now, at (probably) 4, she only has a few pink spots left.

These new warning signs in the park, now that they have finally finished cutting up all the downed trees. I love that the person illegally climbing the timber still attached a safety line.

Our lurcher has basically refused to move since the rain started. She is very anti-rain in general. She might make an excellent spokes dog for bed rotting, which I'm told is a trend among young people.

According to breed descriptions, sighthounds are non territorial dogs that rarely bark. Hedy refuses to read breed descriptions, and is a fantastically territorial dog who barks at everything, especially at 2 am.
