If you love good photography, and photos of dogs, you’ll love this blog by dog photographer, Erin Vey. She has some amazing photos. The only thing we don’t like is that she’s located in Seattle (and we’re not) and it looks like she hasn’t had a Frenchie as a client yet!
If you are lucky enough to be in the Seattle area, this photographer is worth checking out for your pooch. Her site says she’s willing to travel…
Yves Saint Laurent ’s passing happened a couple of months ago, but recently found this in-depth blog entry by Pet Sugar about his constant French Bulldog companion(s) named Moujik.
Hidden in the entry is a link to a short article about famous people in history and their association with Frenchies. Look below the big photo of Moujik for the words in blue “once saying”. Click these to read/download the PDF.
Is anyone really surprised that one of the most influential fashion designers of the past century insisted on a French Bulldog as a pet? And pied Frenchie at that!
After you get a dog, an unexpected event is how much the dog(s) will influence what you drive. Want that cute little two-seater Mini Cooper? Get a Bullmastiff or a Great Dane and the minivan may not seem such a bad choice after all.
Fortunately with a French Bulldog, you can get a smaller car. (Though if you are into lots of Frenchie accessories, it can fill up fast.) With Frenchies, it’s the AC you have to test carefully, as some smaller cars don’t pump out cold air very fast.
There is actually a site offering comprehensive reviews of cars based on their dog-ability and dog-suitability. Visit http://dogcars.com and see if the car you’ve been drooling for lives up to your needs, and more importantly, your dog’s needs.
With our crew, the smaller the car, the better. Especially if you can pick it up in your mouth and carry it around the kitchen. See the clip below as an example.
And if you are feeling very clickable, check the other tabs at the top of the page while you are there. You can click to give support to other worthy causes such as Literacy, the Rainforest, etc.
You’ve sat in history class and heard facts and dates about the people who lived before you. Have you ever wondered if there is a canine equivalent? There actually is! It’s called the Oregon State University (OSU) Canine Research Collection and is located in Corvallis, Oregon in the Valley Library.
It started in 2000 with the donation of a personal collection of rare and antique dog books. The collection is now expanding as more dog fanciers donate their collections of books, magazines, pedigrees, photos, correspondence, medallions, and more.
If you have items you’d like to donate, or want to learn more, visit the Oregon State University site or contact them.
