mypetmug America's Favorite Dog Jan 31, 2010 9:33 AM For the 19th consecutive year 'America' has voted and chosen the Labrador Retriever as their favorite. This according to AKC registration analysis. In at Number 2 is the German Shepard, finding favor again possibly because of their security efforts home and abroad. Rounding out the rest of the list are, in order, Golden Retriever, Beagle, Boxer, Dachshund, Poodle, Shih Tzu. So it seems to me that America's Favorite Dog ought to be (and, in my opinion) is the mutt. Yup, the street dog, Heinz 57, jack of all breeds, whatever you choose to call them. I think that more people own a less than pedigreed dog and sadly, there are more of them not in homes at all. Let's not rush out and get the most popular, or favorite, or the same dog a celebrity has. We've seen in years past what that does to a breed. When Lady & The Tramp was released in the late 70's, so many kids wanted cocker spaniels that the overbreeding of the dog led to serious problems. Similarly, when 101 Dalmations was re-released, shelters became flooded with dalmations a couple years later. Most recently, we all are aware of the many chihuahuas needing homes because famous Hollywood types were toting them around just to be noticed, aka 'the Hilton Factor'. There's nothing wrong with a Pedigree or purebred or 'America's Favorite Dog', but let's not forget that a person's favorite dog is their dog, as it should be. It can't be said too often or too emphatically, adopt a dog from your local shelter, they'll love you for it!

mypetmug MyPetLikes - SybSab Speak - Blue Dog Bakery Jan 10, 2010 2:06 PM Syb:  So I'm grocery shopping and see this great product from Blue Dog Bakery - lowfat dog treats.  I also happen to have a great $1.00 off, extra incentive, always good!  I bring them home and my Puggle Sam is already sniffing the bag and jumping on me.  His beagle nose knows there's something good inside.  These treats are not only smartly packaged, they apparently taste delicious.  They even come in convenient 100 calorie packs, just like my favorite treats!   Sab:  My two dogs, Tulip and Lola love these treats too.  And they won't eat just anything, sometimes they can be finicky, but not when it comes to these.  They even seem to recognize the brightly colored packaging and Big Blue Dog when I break out the box.  Better hide it when I'm away, you never know these two just may figure out a way to open the cupboard! Get your free sample bag of treats and $1.00 coupon when you become a member at mypetmug.com .
