Devoted pet owner and now, devoted pet editor, Judi worked in traditional offices, keeping the books and the day-to-day operations organized. Taking her dog to work every day for over a decade never seemed odd. Neither did having an office cat. She knows what it's like to train a new puppy and she's experienced the heartache of losing beloved companions. Retired, she currently lives with her spoiled dog and four chickens (who are, interestingly enough, also spoiled).

I was asked to write a guest post over at Paw-Talk.net. Want to know what I wrote about?
If you haven’t ventured to that PETS website before, it’s worth a visit. Here’s what it’s all about:
Paw-Talk began in mid 2001. The goal was to fill a much needed niche – a forum devoted to all animals rather than just one or two species. It started
I have. And oh, do I have a treat for you. Please don’t spoil my surprise by clicking away before reading more and please don’t tell me that you’ve already visited the blog that Angela Goza (aka: The Furry Godmother) creates and maintains. I’d like to be the one that introduces you to this pets blog.
I strongly recommend, after reading this review of course, that you check out
Looks like Tom over at Invention Home just might be my new best friend. He’s sent me yet another pet invention alert. And this one I not only have to mention, but would actually stand in line to buy the minute it hit the shelves.
I have two rather large outside dogs so we fill very big water bowls quite often. How cool it would be to
National Geographic has been showing some great Dog Whisperer episode since Christmas. Tonight at 8pm they’ve got a Great Dane and a Lhasa Apso in the line up.
Here’s what their release says about this up-coming episode:
Problems come in all sizes, and in this episode Cesar takes on a massive Great Dane and a little Lhasa apso. First, meet Hailie and Heath and their Great Dane, Bacchus
Nat Geo’s had some really great shows on lately and the fun for animal lovers continues this Sunday (January 4th) from 8pm to 10pm ET. I’ve actually already previewed an advanced screening copy of In the Womb: Dogs. I haven’t yet watched the complimentary copy of In the Womb: Cats — but I have high expectations because the state-of-the-art visual effects and real-time 4-D ultrasound imagery used in the dog
I know, it’ll be a bit longer before it’s official – but since it’s New Year’s Eve here in the U.S. I’m taking the liberty of posting about the Chinese Zodiac’s Rat and Ox tonight. 
Gone is 2008 (the year of the rat) and 2009 (the year of the ox) is upon us.
I’m not very
One of the pets blogs I frequent, Gandalf and Grayson, posted a story about Blackie and Little Jim today that makes my heart sick. It makes my stomach turn so much so that I nearly couldn’t read the original story in the Valdosta Daily Times.
There were 3 cats in the story, one of which had to be euthanized and two of which are alive but have
Tom over at InventionHome.com sent me a quick email to let me know about Barbara McNew’s new invention – the critter litter box. Evidently Barbara doesn’t like emptying her litter box. Does anyone?
Her invention solves the tedious job of litter box duty (pun intended) by making the entire litter box disposable. Hmmm. Interesting indeed.
My first thought was to shun the idea of yet another
I’d recently written about the Dog Whisperer episode that featured Hemingway & Rigby, the English bulldogs belonging to Ashley Simpson-Wentz and Pete Wentz (it just aired last night).
There’s another episode coming on tonight at 8pm that also looks intriguing. It’s all about Tobi and Riley. . .
Tobi
Tobi, the Pinner’s dog, is a sheepdog/collie/lab/akita mix (all of which were bred for hunting). Tobi is overly aggressive
