Question about Dog/s...
So...there's the little mini-dog, or I guess what's called a "toy" dog, who is super-de-duper popular right now. Whatever happened to the hundreds or so other dogs that have been running around for ages? Why is one particular type of dog considered "cute" if they are small enough to fit in your purse, but not the dozens of other dogs that are the same size? What's wrong with a full-size dog like a golden retriever, and why are some dogs so drooly?
If you ask me, Beagles and Labs are the bees knees. FWIW, I'd like to keep this conversation civil and relatively cat free. I know, I know...I love cats, and cats are pets too. Still, please try.

I just got a golden doodle. He'll end up about 50 lbs., have qualitites of a golden, and not shed like a poodle. Win, Win for me.

Speaking of dogs, five internets go to the first person who can spot the dog in this picture.

this seems like a random thought, if only we had somewhere to post those...

As far as the drooling goes - it's a function of the loose skin around the mouth on those breeds of dogs.

So you're saying that the drooling is just a part of the dogs genetic makeup? I wonder if the types of dogs that drool all the time would still drool if they were raised in a non-drool culture.

Wait...that looks like my bathroom closet. Why is your dog raping Garfield in my bathroom closet?

While you were in the closet, did you happen to find JimGA? I hear he's due to come out any day now.

Yes. It has to do with the shape of the mouth/muzzle.

Merging two threads, Netflix has a National Geographic special on the Science of Dogs that covers all this ground...
