Timeline photos
Our hearts are heavy today as we let you all know that our beloved German Shepherd, Champ, passed away peacefully at home. He was our constant, cherished companion during the last 13 years and was adored by the entire Biden family. Even as Champ’s strength waned in his last months, when we came into a room, he would immediately pull himself up, his tail always wagging, and nuzzle us for an ear scratch or a belly rub. Wherever we were, he wanted to be, and everything was instantly better when he was next to us. He loved nothing more than curling up at our feet in front of a fire at the end of the day, joining us as a comforting presence in meetings, or sunning himself in the White House garden. In his younger days, he was happiest chasing golf balls on the front lawn of the Naval Observatory or racing to catch our grandchildren as they ran around our backyard in Delaware. In our most joyful moments and in our most grief-stricken days, he was there with us, sensitive to our every unspoken feeling and emotion. We love our sweet, good boy and will miss him always.
This is what the final result of training the Really Reliable Recall looks like. This demo is with an Afghan Hound. Afghan Hounds are supposed to be impossible to train to come when called because they love to run and as a breed were designated as the most difficult of any breed to train in Stanley Coren's book: The intelligence of dogs. The link to learn this method is in the first comment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lgPAwif0qk

Dear Ms. Peregoy,
I spoke this morning with your manager, Angelo Miranda, who provided me your business card. Hopefully he told you I would be emailing you.
Attached is a video which shows an individual walking a dog past the person of interest in the FBI’s pipe bomb investigation, stemming from the pipe bombs placed at the RNC and DNC on 5 January 2021. This dog walker is clearly not in trouble, but the FBI wants to identify this individual as a potential witness in the investigation. Any assistance your staff can provide in potentially identifying this witness would be outstanding. They were very eager to help when I stopped in, and I appreciated their time and efforts. If you could please circulate the video among your dog groomers, and if anyone is able to identify this potential witness, please let me know. Thank you so much for any further assistance you can provide!
Best regards,
Special Agent Benton Larsen

After years of warnings about too many dogs come worries about too few
BERNIEDOODLE
This beauty is nesting by the grooming salon. Not an albino - " The white squirrel is actually a genetic anomaly due to a mutated gene from the common Eastern Gray Squirrel. It is called leucism, which is a condition characterized by reduced pigmentation in animals caused by a recessive allele. Unlike albinism, it is a reduction in all types of skin pigment, not just melanin."

This never gets old for me - wandering the acres at my brother's house and showing off our Really Reliable Recall (RRR). The RRR is an immediate, emergency "come when called" trained with a new signal word, but the HUGE BONUS of training the RRR, and following the rules, is that training the new word makes the "everyday recall" you are already using so much better, you actually never need the RRR. The whistle you hear is just one of my "everyday" recall signals. Afghan hounds are generally believed to be impossible to train this behavior, but don't tell mine!

When you’re a famous politician like Vice President Joe Biden, everything you do is newsworthy and will be judged. It’s rare for him to receive only positive reactions to anything he does, but it happened recently. Biden and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, adopted the shelter dog that they had been fo...
Remember, if a dog was the teacher you would learn things like:
• When your loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
• Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
• Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy.
• Take naps.
• Stretch before rising.
• Run, romp, and play daily.
• Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
• Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
• On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
• On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
• When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
• Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
• Be faithful.
• Never pretend to be something you’re not.
• If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
• When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.
That's the secret of happiness that we can learn from a good dog.

“Just released this episode of The Bitey End of the Dog podcast show!
I chat with Sue Sternberg, a world renowned dog behavior expert who has devoted her personal and professional life to helping dogs and people live together happily.
We talk about the street dogs we had the pleasure of observing when we were together in Valle De Bravo, Mexico, and the profound difference in behavior with dogs in the United States. I also pick Sue’s brain on her fascinating insight into dog body language and red flags for aggression, and we dive deeper into the reason why we might be seeing an increase in aggression cases overall.
Hopefully, this episode will generate some much needed conversation about how we are getting dogs and bringing them into our human lives.”
" . . . This year in St. Paul, Minn., not far from where George Floyd was killed, news reports celebrated the retirement of “Havoc” and his visits to hospitalized children. Not mentioned alongside images of cupcakes with pawprint frosting was that Havoc’s day job was to bite people upon command. Or the review showing that St. Paul K-9s were “routinely used on nonviolent offenders who were nearly always fleeing or hiding instead of threatening harm or displaying weapons.” Or that most people bitten were young black men — even a 12-year-old boy. . . .The extent to which we have normalized — and subsidized — police departments’ use of dogs to attack human beings should be chilling. The fact that we fawn over those same dogs at community events — without a thought of whose bodies those dogs have bitten — should be more chilling still.
There may be a place for search-and-rescue bloodhounds and explosive-sniffing dogs in a rational public safety system. But “criminal apprehension” dogs used to find and bite whomever the police tell them to need to be part of the national conversation about ending unnecessary force. . . ." https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/07/06/police-dogs-are-problem-that-needs-fixing/
How K-9 units are used needs to be part of the national conversation about ending unnecessary force.
