It’s time to get clever! A picture is worth a thousand words, but those messages vary from person to person. This is so cute, but I can't even imagine how they got these puppies to sleep like this — what do you think? Suggest quotes or captions for this photo in your comments below, and I’ll do a roundup next week of some of my faves.
Woohoo! Muttropolis just added a whole mess of new markdowns for their Labor Day sale – do you shop these? – with savings of 50 to 75 percent on all sorts of pet gear. The best part about this event (other than the money saved): many of these items are Muttropolis exclusive!
I've already ordered five toys for my pooch, but there are plenty more sweet items to savor. If I knew anyone with a new puppy, or if Samson was just a lil younger, I'd totally pick up one of these Ulti-Mutt Puppy Toolkits as a gift – they're 60 percent off at $9.50!
See more of the designer duds, top-of-the line toys, and beautiful beds in the widget below (or check out the entire sale on the Muttropolis site).
This week on PetSugar, we learned some common signs of a deadly disease that can affect your pets, mourned the loss of one of the tiniest dogs ever, and brushed up on our sidewalk dining manners.
What else did we discuss this week? All of the answers to this quiz can be found in this week's posts!
Pet Fashion Week's over 'til February, but New York Fashion Week starts soon! I can't get enough of the Lifestyle Innovation Awards from this event, and you may recognize several of the designs from past posts on the site (like Whiner and Diner, Tigrito, and Kevy K.). Even though, the grand prize winner, HugX, is stunning, if you had to choose with money as no object, which style best fits your home's décor?
My fave competition at Pet Fashion Week is the Lifestyle Innovation Award offered to the company that has the top product design in a different category each year. This year "pet dinnerware" was displayed and this super-cute bowl won. Learn all about it in this slideshow!

I was at a recent event where a group of doves were released as a symbol of remembrance. A friend who attended with me was appalled that this was still a common practice, since she thought it was inhumane to raise doves just to be released – where did they go afterwards?
I did some research and found it's not all bad news for the doves. Indeed doves are very fragile in the wild, and since they aren't known for their survival skills, would probably starve or get eaten by another animal before finding their way back anywhere. As a solution, it's standard practice to use white Homing Pigeons instead of doves, since they bare a striking resemblance to peace doves, but are capable of finding their way back to their nests from up to 600 miles away!
