I love that photo! The Bodhi (Bohdi?) is so dignified and distinguished — but I remember that puppy pic you posted of him the day he first came into your life, so I know there’s still a playful pup hidden behind that elegant exterior.
Thanks for cute pet pic. Looks like the dogs are taking this meager human gimmick of National Dog Day for granted, as well they should.
And, the tragic saga of Cole trying in vain to get a pic of one of his pets gazing with adoration at their beloved master continues. Some day, Cole, some day, it will happen.

How about a pic of Rosie. And Steve — showing how pissed he is that it’s not National Cat Day.

@Mike in NC: he’s also got a rich coat. A super rich coat. And he dines only on steak,caviar and wild salmon.
@Felonius Monk: Agreed. Every dog deserves a pic on National Dog Day. And need proof of life for Steve. Unless Steve has taken over, like Tunch, but unlike Tunch does not want his pic taken, and if that is the case, Cole should tell us.

@Felonius Monk: its National Cat Day everyday. Steve’s just looking down on these stupid dogs around him who think.they’re hot stuff because they get one day.

I love our dog but thanks to him I’m in the dog house. He persists in being violently aggressive toward another beloved pet who is much smaller than him and very vulnerable. They have been separated to different homes with great effort, inconvenience and difficulty.
And now Mrs. Thunder hasn’t spoken more than a grunt to me in 2 weeks because she regards this segregation as unnecessary in spite of pet-biting events.
Women’s Equality Day is a day proclaimed each year by the United States President to commemorate the granting of the vote to women throughout the country. Women in the United States were granted the right to vote on August 26, 1920 … Every president has published a proclamation for Women’s Equality Day since 1972, the year after legislation was first introduced in Congress by Bella Abzug. This resolution was passed in 1971 designating August 26 of each year as Women’s Equality Day. Source

Thank you. I love how persistent and focused my wife is, but sometimes it’s just plain stubbornness. It’ll pass.
The puppy and I are going to eat some apples now while she sulks in her tent.

@Felonius Monk: Cat day. But dogs are kind of nice. We can give the a day. The rest are for cats :)
@NotMax:
I would make a nasty crack about the two days coinciding, but unfortunate coincidences are going to happen. There are only 365 days in a year, and way more than 365 things that people want to make national days for, so every day is going to be multiply booked. There are always going to be some WTF moments about the things that have their national days on the same day.

What day is national hamster day, and are the hamsters powering the balloon-juice servers doing a work slowdown?
Seriously, has anybody asked mistermix to vacuum the database? Is the problem transfer, cpu, or database?

@a hip hop artist from Idaho (fka Bella Q): Good! Two days in a row. The mid-60’s didn’t hurt at all but I think he’s good for the foreseeable future. Gotta rack it now so’s we can light out in the pre-dawn.

My dogs got very excited when a possum decided to visit our back fence. I’m pretty sure they thought it was the ugliest cat they’d ever seen.
Yeah. Every time people here post pics and tell stories about their dogs I wanna get me one. Then someone starts talking about dog shit or waking up to walls; that’s right, walls having been eaten in the dead of the night. And then I’m like Mebbe Not.
@efgoldman: Only if they shot four or more people.

I am definitely not a dog person, but Thurston’s antics makes me question that all the time.

The dogs are nice and everything, Cole, but are we going to have wait two months to see THE CAT???
