Dog Blog

The Dog Blog is a community of ordinary dog lovers who have come together to discuss our extraordinary dogs. Each Monday, a new topic is introduced. If you've got an opinion, share it. If not, look for the current "anything goes" topic and introduce a discussion of your own. On Fridays, weigh in about your training questions and successes.
Your host: Mike Lewis is a little-dog nerd and the proud owner of Eddie and Jillian, a pair of Yorkies who think they're huskies, and Lucy, a sweet Chessie. R.I.P., Rusty. Contact mlewis@adn.com

Entry deadline passes for Howllll-oween Costume Contest

Deadline for submitting photos to the 2009 contest passed at midnight. Check out all the submissions by clicking on the contest at right, then check back later today for a poll to determine the People's Choice Award.

We had a record 36 entries, not counting a costumed Guinea pig, which was cute but didn't meet the species requirement. ;)

Thanks to all who submitted entries. This was our best year yet for quantity and overall quality.

The winner will be announced on Halloween Day.
