Pet Pic of the Day: Willow and Sparkie's Park Playtime

PetSugar — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 06:00:19 -0700

I love this photo for so many reasons (how cute are they!?), but I think that if these pups were to make music, this would be Sparkie and Willow's album cover.

Congrats to Sparkie, Willow, and AP13 for being chosen as our Pet Pic of the Day! Don't forget to submit your photos to our Pet Pics group for a chance to see your four legged pals on PetSugar!

Pet Pic of the Day: Toby's a Fan of Fetch

PetSugar — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 09:30:39 -0700

Although Toby can't speak to us with words, I can totally hear what he's saying in this pic. Something to the tune of, "Please take me outside! It's so pretty, and I want to play fetch! I even have my ball here, see?" I hear ya, Toby. I hear ya.

Congrats to Toby and theonlyjess for being chosen as our Pet Pic of the Day! Don't forget to submit your favorite snapshots to our Pet Pics group - you may see your four legged pals on PetSugar!

Pet Pic of the Day: Mozzy Is a Party Animal

Mozzy turned one this month, and got a super special birthday party to celebrate. I had a seriously rough time picking out just one photo from his party gallery, but I finally settled on this silly pic. It shows us just how much fun he had!

What Do You Know About Maltese?

PetSugar — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 03:00:08 -0700

My new favorite show Greatest American Dog ended this week and while little Andrew didn't take the top spot, the judges said he was the "most incredible Maltese" they have ever witnessed.

Andrew was the highest scoring dog in trial at the annual Town and Country Kennel Club Show and was named the top Maltese in the U.S. Novice Rally Competition so clearly he's a winner of sorts even though he isn't America's greatest. What do you know about his breed? Take this quiz and find out!

Pet Pic of the Day: Milo Just Wants To Be One of the Guys

PetSugar — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 08:00:57 -0700

And when I say "guys" I mean one of Snow White's Seven Dwarfs! He's definitely small enough to fit in with the rest, but personally, I think he's much cuter!

Congrats to Milo and iluvhoney for being chosen as our Pet Pic of the Day! Be sure to submit your favorite pet photos to our Pet Pics group and you may see your furry pal on the pages of PetSugar!

Celeb Redo: A Better Doggie Bag For Susan Sarandon

PetSugar — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 12:00:01 -0700

I love to see celebs getting snuggly with their pooches, so how delighted was I to catch this glimpse of Susan Sarandon and her lil Maltese?! Even so, I'm less pleased to witness the furry-pal-inside-purse phenom later that night.

Granted, the two were attending Longchamp's 60th Anniversary celebration in NYC, so the Legende Satchel was a must-have, but where's a proper tote for her precious pet, Penny? Next time, hopefully she'll carry that metallic trend with an appropriate luxe, gold (dog) bag like these below.

Guess Who?

Hey, that's not Oprah . . .

Two-Legged Puppy Still Going . . . and Rolling!

PetSugar — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 07:00:44 -0700

Hope, a tiny puppy born with only two hind legs has a new way of getting around . . . model airplane wheels! The adoro Maltese was used to getting around by hopping on her two legs, until doctors said that this movement would eventually cause injury to her bones and spine.
Coming to the rescue was Dr. David Turnbill, who built her new prosthetic legs free of charge out of model airplane wheels so that she can "walk" around like any other dog could, and in her natural position. Hope's rehabilitation specialist Cassy Englert says that at first Hope was having some issues adjusting to the new way of walking:

She never knew anything other than hopping like she did. The hardest thing is teaching her a new way to get around that's going to actually be better for her.

Thankfully, Hope is taking to her new legs and is even jetting around at some pretty quick speeds. Good to see she's not letting anything stop her!

New Product Alert! Rage Against the Maltese

PetSugar — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 14:15:59 -0700

Aww, what did that adoro fluffy animal ever do to you?! I'm betting this clever shirt got its name based on the common letters between Maltese and machine, but still I've got nothing but love for the teacup pups. (If rage involves chasing and licking, North has a lot of that . . . toward most breeds!)

Regardless, rockin' company Rockstar Puppy recently tweeted about its new tees, and I had to check 'em out. I'm loving this one best but they've got bands of all genres. If you have any other musically inspired group/breed names or song suggestions, "Whippet good" and share in the comments below.
