PetPix Today!

Canada gets the kudos this year with Charlie from Ottawa Canada taking the “Pet of the Year” honor for 2009.

This good-natured canine loves people and brings smiles to many at a local seniors’ residence. He also seems to like getting his picture taken when visiting his pals in the local sand pit and dog park.

Pets catch at our hearts and Ben from Seattle is no exception. Ben is the Pet-of-the-Month over at MillionDollarPetPix home of the PetPix Time Capsule.

Duke is still a young pup, but is very well-behaved and engaging. This is his special “worn out” pose which is often seen after one of his extra-long play times! He thinks of himself as a “people-person” which sometimes gets him into some trouble… Be sure to visit Duke’s Corner of Fame and read all about him at MillionDollarPetPix.com which is home to the PetPix Time Capsule for pets.

Pets as People

Today, more than ever before, we attribute human characteristics and personality to pets. This is fun and entertaining, though some cultures find this rather odd and even a bit disturbing. Nonetheless, when one sees the many expressions and mannerisms of their pets, it is easy to think of them as fur people.

Boomers will enjoy this…

A much-loved canine will now be getting his own stamp as the US Postal service commemorates celebrities from the 50’s. The stamp edition is called “Early TV Memories” and the stamps are now being sold. These stamps feature classic TV characters from the 1950’s and one of those being celebrated is the beautiful, intelligent Collie and Hollywood star named Lassie. This quick-witted canine hero entertained Boomers with all sorts of wonderful adventures.
