FDA Approves New Weight Loss Drug for Dogs
After nearly two years of clinical trials, the FDA has finally approved PupsaTrim, a prescription-only weight loss supplement for dogs manufactured by Pfizer.

Analysts: Humans May Never Understand the Appeal of Dog Music
Analysts: Humans May Never Understand the Appeal of Dog Music
Ever look through your dog’s record collection and think to yourself, “What is this crap?”
You’re not alone. A new study from the Canine Institute of Comparative Culture suggests that the gulf between human and dog tastes in music may never be overcome.
“We have different brains,” says Ronald Stark, who lead the study. “So while humans may like Mozart or AC/DC, dogs will enjoy bands like Butt Sniffers Club or The Bacon Brothers. They have different harmonic structures which will never be amenable to our ears.”

Puppy-Run Newspaper Delivery Service Sees Hard Times in Digital Age
Puppy-Run Newspaper Delivery Service Sees Hard Times in Digital Age
Bullseye Carriers, a newspaper delivery company owned and operated by Jett, a yellow lab from Long Island, NY, is reevaluating its business model after a very tough 2011.
