Golden Poodle awards for February

The Golden Poodle awards for February go to three dogs with unusual occupations.

Sophy is a school crossing guard in New York, Dozer is an agriculture inspector in California, and Uggie, the actor, is stealing the awards shows in Hollywood.

I just hope that people who want a Jack Russell Terrier because Uggie is cute as a button will do their research. A lot of JRT’s were dumped in the past because of the popularity of Eddie on "Frazier." They are great little dogs but they can be a pain in the ass if they aren’t given work to do like killing a barn full of rats.

The Lizard Brain award goes to Kristin Lees, 22, the Windsor woman who is incensed that Misha, her 8-pound Chihuahua, has been put on the dangerous dog registry after biting a 14-year-old girl walking down the street. After all Misha is little and looks pretty in pink.

 

The Neanderthal award goes to the bloated national animal bureaucracies that fundraise using cute dogs and cats but do little for their welfare.

YAY! to the Lizard Brain award winner. Fully agree with JRTs too. Sigh.

As for Dozer, I find that a bit sad. What is a pet motel? Is that a nice name for a boarding kennel?

Very good choices for the awards. I do agree with Georgia though, a pet motel is just a fancy word to say, my dog lives in a kennel.

Go Team Sophy! I still think that's just awesome.

Also agree with the Neanderthal award winner. But they are always probably my choice. :-P

my friend Shady Lane used to have a jack russel..he was a funny dog but such a gigantic pain in the ass...they just have so much energy.

Good choices all.

As for little Misha, we had a chihuahua back in the day who would go after animals or humans that she didn't like regardless of their size.

They can be vicious, but, they're also easily intimidated by someone who isn't afraid of dogs.
