Breeds, like fashions, go in and out of style. The 40's and the 50's saw the American pit bull terrier at the peak of its popularity as a family pet. Disney's 101 Dalmatians created an international Dalmatian craze.
At the turn of the millenium, we saw a new fad raise its head. This is the designer dog.
I worked on a piece about designer dogs all day today at work... and left my journal there when my shift was up. I'll drive over and pick it up tomorrow, but I'm really angry at myself for forgetting! It's not done yet, but I'm very pleased with how it's coming.
(Today's blog was originally written in my journal while I was at work.)
It's a beautiful day today. For whatever reason, the dogs behave better when the weather is nice, so I've taken out my journal to take advantage of this lull in activity. In a single glance around the room, I can spot a huge variety of dogs, all with different origins.
Everyone is passionate about something. For some people it's something as simple as a hobby, such as baseball or music. For others, it's politics and social liberties, such as gay marriage.
For me, it's animals.
I grew up with animals. I have animals. I work with animals. Every single aspect of my life can, somehow, be traced back to animals.
