my grandma sent me a picture of my dog with his new xmas present and i need a fucking inhaler LOOK AT HIM

oh to feel a fraction of the unbridled joy he is experiencing

I can’t stop getting emotional about how tenderly a shepherd caresses his dog’s face on this marble sarcophagus from the third century

The dog’s face is just so lovingly crafted and it’s much more finely detailed than some of the other animals in the piece. The expression is pure contentment and devotion. This scene is a tiny portion of a huge elaborate sculpture but I really feel like the artist was trying to capture a specific emotion with these two. The way that you feel when you look at your dog is thousands of years old.

Does anyone have any good resources on dog-dog resource guarding in multi-dog households?

I'm looking for force free resources of any kind, so videos, podcasts, books, blogs, whatever, as long as it's sensible and useful. Please, and thank you!!!

Navi has always been a typical little herding dog who takes it upon herself to "enforce rules" and it was usually not problematic at all, it was moreso a quirk. However, she's tried to guard her bowl and a cardboard box (love that for her) in front of Maisie and a friend's dog in the past month. I'm pretty convinced this is linked to her being in heat, since it's been a tough one for her, but I think we'd benefit from working on this regardless. Don't want it to escalate and create conflict with other dogs and I also don't want her to feel unsafe with her food etc. I already do a lot of things to manage it, and I know how to work on resource guarding between dogs and people, but I honestly don't have that many resources on dog-dog resource guarding and how to effectively manage or solve it.

Excuse me I’m just going to cry proud tears that my unconventional breed beat out all the goldens and labs and Aussies and shepherds to win highest scoring dog in trial on a count back and speed with a perfect score of 100 at the master level

Also @fjordfolk @nefja your drinking game joke reminded me of something

Cannot recall if someone’s done this before (probably yes) but how about… Crufts Bingo

Here are some suggestions for the boxes

- “good substance”

- “fit for function”

- “not too exaggerated”/“free of exaggeration”/general inappropriate use of the word “exaggeration”

- justification for show cut (bonus if it makes zero sense)

- Unpleasant adjective said like a good thing (ex: “greasy” coat)

- Frank says a slur

- Poodle in the shortlist

#Please reblog with more this was literally just what I can think of #also very easily adaptable to a drinking game #crufts 24 #image description in alt text

you know what I would love: a way to have multiple dogblr cruftsblogging posts synced to the video so I can see them all at the right time and be amused (I would say a dogblr only crufts stream but I can’t reblog stream comments unfortunately. Also not all of us are watching this at the same time)

#too many of you are funny and I cannot keep up #also hello yes I am a little bit back from the dead AKA taking a break from finals/grading papers to cruftspost #crufts24
