Dog Swears It’s Snow, Not Dandruff

A local pup named Ranger wants everyone to know that the white flecks in an unfortunate picture of him making the rounds on Facebook are snow flakes, and not dandruff.

“Ranger wants to make it perfectly clear that contrary to rumors he does not have a dandruff problem,” said Patrick Landon, a spokesperson for the dog. “He just happened to be out playing in the snow when the shot was taken. It was cold enough that the flakes weren’t melting as they landed on his fur.”

Puppies Finally Find Suitable 2013 Calendar

It has taken nearly two months, but Buster and Chance, two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels from Boston, MA, have finally found a 2013 wall calendar that they both could agree on.

“They share a bedroom,” said Skeeter Winslow, a source close to the pair of dogs, “so it was imperative that they find a calendar they both liked.”

So what did the two pups pick? Predictably, they settled on a calendar featuring photos of other Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppies.

“I’m glad they found something,” said Winslow, “but seriously, what a lack of creativity!”

Area Dog Is ‘Too Big’ for Sink Baths

9-month-old Great Dane puppy Maya has already outgrown the kitchen sink for her weekly bath.

“When she was much smaller, we used to bather her in the sink.  But really, she got too big for sink baths after about a month old,” said Wiley Masterson, a source close to the situation. “Even as puppies Great Danes are huge.”

But Maya is refusing to give up on her weekly tradition that easily.

“She still likes to sit in the sink, hoping that maybe the dimensions will have somehow shifted and she’ll be able to fit,” Masterson said. “But everyone knows that ain’t gonna happen.”

Doggie House Guest Overstays Welcome

Have you ever had a guest who just won’t take a hint? The Murray family feels your pain. They have been trying to get rid of their house guest for the past week, but so far they’ve had no luck in getting him out the door.

Cleatus the dog was supposed to stay with the Murrays for a weekend last month. But then Cleatus decided to extend his vacation and two days quickly turned into five.

Once the dog learned that he’d lost his job back home (apparently he never told anyone he was going on vacation), he pretty much moved into the Murray house.

It’s been nearly seven weeks since he first arrived.

“I need my living room back,” said Jan Murray, the matriarch of the Pasadena, CA-based family. “About a week ago I just decided I’d had enough and I stopped with the subtle hints and just flat out told Cleatus he had to go. Nothing. He sits around watching TV on the couch all day.”

According to Murray, the family even tried moving all of Cleatus’s stuff out onto the front yard while he was out one day site seeing. That didn’t deter him – he just moved in under the porch for a few days and snuck back into the house when someone accidentally left the back door open a crack.
