 About Rufus

'Dangerous Dog' Rufus Honored at the National Dog Show

As officials across the nation enact breed bans in a misdirected attempt to crack down on bad owners, countless gentle, loving, and well-behaved dogs lose their privileges, and sometimes their ability to help others.

One such case involves the most decorated show dog in bull-terrier history and veteran therapy dog, Rufus, who was honored at this year's National Dog Show presented by Purina (which took place last weekend but will air on NBC Thanksgiving Day). Five years after winning the triple crown of U.S. dog shows -- The National Dog Show, the Westminster Dog Show and the Morris & Essex Kennel Club Show -- Rufus is back in the ring to be honored and raise awareness about misguided breed bans.

The Answer is "Because I Love You?"

* * * * *

Why? the question is - does this 20lb dog

HAVE to be under foot, under desk

always when I get up to take a break?

And why should I have to balance my ass on the edge of

the chair leaning at a 45 degree angle 

working at the computer, Miss Zoe????

oh yeah.

Because I love you, human woman.

Well fine. Me and my aching back love you too, dog.

Q & A

* * * * *

Lia:  Did you know Waterbucks have heart-shaped noses?

Zoe: No, but then I won't be playing 20 Questions soon, so it won't matter.
.

Lia:  I thought you wanted to learn about things...

Zoe:  Well, I doubt we'll see Africa soon, so I limit my education to things in my geographical region.

Lia:  Hmmm....Africa?.  ...Geographical Region? ....    Dear www.Google.com:

Zoe:  still smarter...huzzaah!

is that he doesn't try to find out why.”

Bike Babe

* * * * *

Here's the story:

Her name is Bike Babe; we think he just calls her Babe.

This first pic is before the ride.

Then, Babe knows to sit down for "The Ride"

And when the ride is over:

WooHoo!!!!!

We like that Babe  (- ok - "Bike Babe") appears

nicely experienced and happy with herself and her Dad!

Varrooooom!

Lia: I REALLY like those goggles.

Zoe: Forget it. You only go for car rides, diphead.

Lia:  What are these?

Zoe: Sheep.  And one dog.  And before you ask, the dog is in the middle.

Lia:  So...is that a SHEEPDOG???  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Zoe:  No.  But she is a dog that can herd the sheep.

Lia:  Herd, as in a herd of elephants?

Zoe: (Why? Why do I even bother?)
