Kelly Modzelewski, check out her great tips on our Daily Dog Tip blog, went to a fundraiser last weekend filled with information from shelters and rescues and anti-fur groups, etc. At the event she saw something she had never seen before and wanted to share it with us, dog kissing booths.

Kelly told us the French Bulldog was adorable and the pit bull was such a great example of his kind – funny and friendly. And he’s a therapy dog, too.
What a cute idea, would you kiss a dog? Give me a bark.

I seem to be going through a French Bulldog phase. This week’s contest features one of my favorite French Bullies — a great little guy named Rockie — and his Labradoodle friend, Taffy. It’s been a while since we’ve tried a dual quote so impress me, Dogsters. Make your quote suggestions by commenting on this post by next Monday, March 2, when the winner is announced and given the 50 Zealie prize.

Remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I thought Sheba, my Neapolitan Mastiff (see #4), was the prettiest girl in the world, though plenty of people say Neos look like monsters. Rubbish!

Poor little Alfred has some confidence issues. Like many others in today’s body-conscious society, he’s a little obsessed with his appearance—specifically, his nose. He can’t rush off for plastic surgery, though, as he’s an adorable little French Bulldog.
A new book by Vivienne Flesher, Alfred’s Nose chronicles one doggie’s journey to find the perfect, true-dog nose. He tries costumes and masks, and ultimately comes to accept himself for the perfect pooch he is. The book will induce giggles and inspire children, but it’s plenty of fun for grown-ups too, with its homegrown photos of Flesher’s dog in a gaggle of fake noses (elephant, cow) and disguises.
This book is short and sweet. Take a peek at Alfred’s own website: alfredthebulldog.com.
