The English bulldog is an absolutely iconic breed. One that many are turning to these days as a breed to bring into their family, but many do so without doing their due diligence as far as research is concerned. As with any purebred dog, it is vital that you understand…
Old Yeller is an exceptionally sad story, one that these days, many may not know anymore. It was a book by Fred Gipson and, after that, a film, one that primarily revolved around the relationship between a boy and his dog. It harkened back to a more rustic time in…
The idea of a dog as a hero isn’t that unusual; in our society and culture, we recognize that the loyalty, strength, obedience, intelligence, and generally good nature of dogs makes them the best companions we could want or expect. This idea has taken many forms over the years, and…
It’s not often that it can be said that the world of dog shows has seen a major change, but recently exactly that happened. New breeds are not often accepted for show purposes at events like the Westminster Dog Show, but that is exactly what has happened for the Wirehaired…
Few dogs have as great a reputation, or as storied a past, as Rin Tin Tin. The story goes that near the end of World War 1, U.S. Army corporal Lee Duncan discovered a badly damaged kennel in the French village of Filrey; this kennel had previously supplied the German…
The Wizard of Oz – well, the original film, anyway – is beautiful, enjoyable, enduring, frightening, and so much more, all in one film. It had a huge impact on peoples’ lives and our culture, and continues to stay with us to this day. The characters, in particular, are very…

Beagles are not just iconic – they’re adorable. They’re a great choice for a breed for your home, but they aren’t all fun and play; you also have to care for them! Beagles require special care and looking after, just like with any breed, and they have their own set…
Marmaduke, Garfield, Heathcliff, Scooby Doo and (of course) Snoopy…there’s a seemingly endless list of cartoon animals who have human or semi-human characteristics but, in reality, demonstrate characteristics of the very animal type they are a caricature of.
