Hey, everyone! I hope you all had a great St. Patrick’s day, yesterday! There was much fun to be had–parades abounded during the surprisingly warm afternoon and parties simmered all night long! What a wonderful time.
The world over knows to associate emerald green with St. Patrick’s day, and we canine’s are no exception. And, as always, I took the opportunity to find some

interesting fashions for the dog’s of the world. In my searches I came across this interesting article: When Irish dogs are smiling! It’s a compilation of 12 incredible (and incredibly adorable!) dog costumes for the day at hand. My favorite has to be the Rhinestone collar–it’s stylish and beautiful, just like me! Which are your favorites? Or do you know of a BETTER one? Let me know in the comments! I love to see pictures of fellow fashionista pups.
In the midst of all the fun and celebration of the holiday, it’s easy to forget about the tragedies being faced in other parts of the world: the Japanese are suffering intensely in the wake of the earthquake that demolished their composure such a short time ago. But even in such an awful situation, canine courage can provide us with something to smile about: this article tells the story of a loyal dog who stood by his injured companion and led a rescuers to him.
Talk about loyalty and courage! What an inspiring story! If you know of a particularly loyal, particularly inspiring, particularly adorable or courageous or intelligent dog, enter them into our Dog of the Week competition! Send an entry (composed of a few pictures and some information about the proposed pup) to brielle@fuzzynation.com. Au revoir!
