It could not have been a better result in the quarter finals of the Ice Hockey World Championship. Mum's home country America beat Russia 8-3. Switzerland continued its winning streak by beating the Czechs. Our neighbour Finland beat Slovakia. Then, in the last quarter final, Sweden beat Canada. The USA will play Switzerland in one of the semi finals. This is good, because it means that either of these countries will be in the final. For as long as the current format of the tournament has...No Competitions Today

The first semi final in the European Song Contest was yesterday, the second is tomorrow. The final is Saturday. The groups in the Ice Hockey World Championship were finished yesterday, the quarter finals are played tomorrow. There are never dog shows in the middle of the week, neither Formula 1 races. All in all, among all of the competitions going on, nothing really happened today, that I am aware of. Some days seems a little more dull than others. This was one of them. It will be betterBest Best in Show?

Hello, Peanut here! As has previously been reported in this blog, Gunde became Best in Show this weekend. I asked my mother which was best: Gunde's BIS at a specialty, where there are judges specialised in the breed, but not many other breeds to compete against in the finals; or Haileys BIS at an international all breed show, but in puppy class? If I would have asked Hailey, she would have held her title in higher regard, of course. Gunde would have said his title was the best. This is just...Unfit for Survival?

There are species of animals that are very endangered, so much so that they are really on the edge of becoming extinct. One such species is the sweet water fish Mangarahara cichlid from a river in Madagascar. It is believed to be extinct in the wild, due to dams constructed by humans, making their natural habitats dry. Three fishes are known to be alive, all of them males. Female fishes of this species are therefore sought after. The hope is that some private fish collectors have at least one...Norwegian Specialty

Paula is with some of us dogs in Norway, for the Norwegian Shiba Inu specialty dog show. Today, our friends won a lot. Gunde (a.k.a. Kokuhou, who was father of my latest litter) won Best of Breed and then also Best in Show against dogs of other Japanese spitz breeds. Gunde also won a Norwegian CAC and thus became Norwegian Champion. On top of this, April's son Javier won Best of Breed Puppy. From home in Sweden, we send our greetings and congratulate our friends. I would have wanted to be...Alleged Attack

In news from California, four animals claimed by someto have been Pit Bull Terriers, have been said to be responsible for the attack upon and death of a 63 old lady who was out jogging in Los Angeles County. The animals were not in the company of any human, and the last one to leave the woman is said to have run of into the desert. The woman died from her wounds on her way to hospital. There is nothing in the news article saying what caused the fight between the animals and the woman. Nobody...Dog Age Calculation

A human scientist has made investigations into the aging of dogs. This is really interesting. The common knowledge is that one dog year is equivalent to seven human years. While this is actually a rather good rule of thumb, it is not completely true. The ageing differs between different breeds, and as no other known animal differ so much in sizes as dogs do, this calls for different calculations for different breeds. I will not waste my time repeating what this scientist has come up with, but...
