The Leading Lady of I Am Legend
The (other) star of I Am Legend was not discovered on the streets of NYC or at a Hollywood casting call – Abbey, the 3-year-old German Shepherd, who appears in this new film alongside Will Smith, was hand picked (and rescued) from a California kennel. Experienced trainer, Steve Berens, selected and offered three weeks of intensive coaching to the pooch before introducing her to the rest of the cast. While there may have been some "creative differences" at the start (she barked at Will when he first walked up), after a short while, the two became friends and traveled to New York together to shoot this film.

Farewell, Shooka, and Nala: Gosselins' Dogs Go Back to Breeder!
Added to the family less than a year ago, Jon Gosselin already came under fire for past remarks about the sextuplets treatment of their pups . . .
Jon and Kate Plus 8 Do Tell: What's the Weirdest Thing Your Pet Ate?
Ever since the Gosselins' new puppies made their TV debut, I've been tuning into Jon and Kate Plus 8 to see how the large family adjusts to the growing dogs. Not only can I now ace the fun quiz on lilsugar, but it gave me an idea for a post, too. In case you missed the episode, I've pasted a clip where the family sees just what the pooch ate on an X-ray – check it out below.
The Scoop: Trakr's Cute Clones Make Their Debut!
In no particular order meet Trustt, Solace, Prodigy, Valor, and Dejavu. How cute (and sleepy) they are! This unconventional new puppy alert features five German Shepherd dogs recently cloned in South Korea and making a press debut yesterday in LA.
The Scoop: Joe Biden Picks His Puppy
While we've been anxiously waiting for any announcement about the TBD Obama puppy, the "second dog" was just introduced over the weekend. Vice President-elect Joe Biden picked out a three-month-old German Shepherd from a kennel in suburban Philadelphia on Saturday. The lil boy won't join the family quite yet and still remains nameless.
The Scoop: Trade Center Hero, Trakr, to Be Cloned
Meet Trakr, the heroic pup who helped locate the last human survivor under about 30 feet of debris after the September 11 attacks. The German Shepherd (and his owner) were among the first search and rescue teams to arrive at Ground Zero, and I'm betting that's why he was deemed the most 'clone-worthy' canine by BioArts International in their competition offering someone a free chance to replicate their pet; a sample of Trakr's DNA will be transported to the South Korean lab of the Sooam Biotech Research Foundation, and the cloned dog could be ready later this year!While we were divided on whether we'd clone our own pets (at that high price), check out more pictures of this beautiful dog with his owner, James Symington, when you read more
New Puppy Alert! Jon and Kate Plus 8 . . . and Puppies Make 12
I can barely imagine having two dogs, never mind two dogs and eight kids! But, on this week's episode of Jon and Kate Plus 8, the Gosselins add two German Shepherd puppies to their family.
Making their small-screen debut are Shooka and Nala – I know I'll definitely start tuning in to watch the puppies grow, witness how the children adjust, and, hopefully, pick up a few tidbits to share from this show.
