(scroll to the bottom to find the answer!) | | | Annie's Adventure of a Lifetime
Annie was a 19-year-old Black Labrador who went on a yearlong bucket list trip with her two fur moms before passing away in June. Best friends, Lauren and Lisa, adopted Annie on June 21, 2022, and were told that she only had about a month left to live. The friends created a bucket list of dog activities to do with Annie before she passed. She ended up living another year and three days.
In Annie's final year, she was able to check so many things off her bucket list and feel love from all over. Activities included a birthday party, a DNA test, a photoshoot from a professional photographer, a Christmas in July celebration, a hamburger tour, an appearance on the news, helping on the field at a Texas Rangers baseball game, and painting a picture.
Lauren and Lisa gave Annie the most incredible gift in her senior years and they were with her when she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. What an incredible story. It's easy to see why so many people fell in love with Annie and her story. | | | Image courtesy of Dogington Post. | | A Paw-fect Investment
Last November, Paul Allen's historic art collection shattered the record for the largest-ever sale in auction history.
The fact that the blue-chip art market is still setting records amid major drawdowns in financial markets, and macroeconomic turmoil, highlights why it can be such a strong alternative diversifier. In fact, the high-end art market also remained resilient through downturns like the dot-com bubble and the Great Financial Crisis in 2008.
But this time around, it's not just billionaires benefitting.
Thanks to Masterworks. This award-winning investment platform allows people to invest in shares of multi-million dollar art by names like Banksy and Picasso. So far, all 14 of Masterworks' sales have been profitable, the last 3 realizing 17.8%, 21.5%, and 35%. net returns respectively.

If you've ever considered adopting a deaf dog but are worried about training, have no fear. Dogs adapt to their hearing loss and utilize body language and scent to communicate. With training, you don't need verbal language. Dogs pay more attention to hand signals and body language to understand what humans say.
Training tips for a deaf dog - Be clear about what you are asking your dog to do.
- Reward them for the correct behavior.
- Try a few sessions with a professional trainer.
- Keep your expectations consistent.
This is great news if you hope to bring home a dog with hearing issues. They are definitely trainable and will enjoy a wonderful life! | | | Image courtesy of Dog Time. | | Is a Tibetan Mastiff the Right Breed for You?
Tibetan Mastiffs is an enormous dog that is known for their big, booming bark. The breed is dominant, so it takes an experienced dog owner to train and raise a stable dog properly. The breed has a sturdy bone structure and grows to be slightly longer than tall. Their weight is between 70 and 150 pounds, depending on whether it's male or female. Their double coats are typically brown, black, or even blue-grey.
Tibetan Mastiffs are incredibly athletic, so it's important to have a strong six-foot fence to help keep the dog safe in the yard. Their temperament is usually calm and quiet unless provoked. They were bred historically to guard livestock. Tibetan Mastiffs can be aggressive towards some animals, so they require carefully supervised socialization to spend time with other dogs and animals.
These Mastiffs have a life expectancy of 10 to 12 years. It's common for this breed to have hip dysplasia and eye problems, which you can test for when they are younger. Obesity is an avoidable issue with this breed to be aware of as well. | | | Image courtesy of Dogs Best Life. | | Did You Know:
Answer: True! In 2003 Dr. Roger Mumford invented the "Wagometer," a device that claims to interpret a dog's exact mood by measuring the wag of its tail. | | Final Bark
