Seven vacation ideas you—and your pooch—can dig:

Don Mason / Corbis
In the 1800s, workingmen crossbred terriers with English bulldogs to develop a strong, spunky offspring for dogfights. The result—a small, bat-eared canine with a tuxedo-like coat—was the Boston terrier.

It's For Me, Right?

(from Rolling Dog Ranch Animal Sanctuary ~)

A wonderful friend and supporter of the ranch, Margaret N. from Seattle, has been sending big boxes of fleece blankets for the animals for a number of years now, and her latest shipment just arrived. I took these photos yesterday afternoon of blind Goldie inspecting the goods. Rather than let Goldie "open" the box herself with her jaws, I thought it would be better to open it myself. But you can see the expression she gave me above.

Then came the sniff test:

Followed by the "I'm-on-top-of-the-situation" personal inspection:

Finally here came the "Yep-it's-for-me-just-as-I-expected" stance -- what better way to claim it for yourself than by lying down on top of it?
