This must be a hoax. I’m sure that Obama was recognized today as being the Worlds Biggest Dog.

A man bought two soft ice cream cones one warm summer day, when I worked at a snack bar years ago.
He sat on the bench closest to the store, and then I saw his big black NFL dog.
LOL, that dog was so happy eating that ice cream cone!

A friend of mine has one of those horses. When she runs over and slams into you to be petted you have to back up a step or two.

Im sure that Obama was recognized today as being the Worlds Biggest Dog. You have been reported to the SPCA for putting "Obama" in the same sentence with "dog."

My English Mastiff is way taller than this NFL.
And about 100 lbs heavier.

Blame my students.
I was wearing my FRee Republic jacket in the hallway and a couple of kids in back of me started singing the jingle adding FRee Republic instead of free credit report.

Holy moly, that’s not a dog; that’s an ox!
J/k - mastiffs are sweeties. Why is it Chihuahuas are among the nastiest dispositions?

OK, what's a "Landseer Newfoundland"?
Landseer was a Victorian British painter who specialized in dogs.
A Landseer by Landseer.
In Europe, the Landseer Newfie is a separate breed, but in the U.S. and Canada, "Landseer Newfie" simply means one that is black and white.

MY puppy isn't a puppy any more . . . but she's definitely the most single-minded on shot flyers . . .
Gangway!

They have to act tough. Chihuahuas are small.
Like liberals.

My boss remarked, "Isn't it a shame that that's the last thing some poor mallard's going to see?"
She actually is a sweet, kinda goofy Lab.
Just don't get between her and a duck. The bird boys tell me that (1) she hits 'em like a fullback, and (2) she screams when she hits the duck.
