It looks like former Vice President Joe Biden has a new canine companion. Mr. former VP and his wife had been fostering a German Shepherd, Major from the Delaware Humane Association for several months - and they decided to become Major’s forever home. The Bidens are no strangers to the breed - they are also owned by another German Shepherd by the name of Champ. I’m not a political dog - but gotta like a guy who likes herding breeds. Just sayin.
There’s a cool story about the IKEA store in Catania, Italy. Get this - they allow stray dogs to stay in the store! The store’s staff provide food and water to the homeless dogs - and even help them to find homes! How great is that?! Now this doesn’t happen in every IKEA store - but the company does have a soft side for dogs and cats - reportedly revealing a home collection with pets in mind in 2017. Good thing. You would need us smart canines to help you put it together.
Meanwhile, in Florida, thousand of racing greyhounds will be looking for forever homes, now that the sport has been banned. I didn’t rant last week about animal rights people - but just so you know - they were behind this movement. I hope these dogs can find good homes....
And in this neck of the woods - I reported about the “find the mitten” game yesterday. And someone kindly shared that they (the human) hide and have their dog look for them. Sounds like a great idea. However....we have tried that game and my human has found herself hiding behind a large rock or tree, with no one coming to find her - one too many times. We don’t play that game any more. Truth be told, .we just like to see her come out from her hiding place eventually. We KNOW where she is - so why go and look all surprised?! Seriously.
It’s hump day! And only 10 more Wednesdays....
Have a good one. Peace and paws up.
