I’ve challenged myself to complete a final drawing or sketch for the children’s fantasy novel I’m illustrating each day this month. For day 14 I drew Lupine, the deuteragonist of the story

One day I saw my black-and-white dachshund and thought wouldn't it be nice if he was bigger and had longer legs? I'm vehemently against backyard breeding, so breeding my weiner was off the table. Then I learned about this new technology that could create gravitational warps so I convinced him to try it and BAAAAM his legs grew threefold overnight!

If any of you have a doxie at home and are tired of him/her being leg-mogged by other dogs, I highly recommend the gravity warp. The only downside is that your dachshund might come out a bit wormy but honestly that's pretty cute.

Hi all, I’m looking for some tips either from experienced owners or breeders on how to maybe get to know the breed before approaching a breeder in the future. I’m located in Germany, and I have a dog (rescue female, mix, part sighthound) right now, but in the future it is my dream to have a borzoi. I don’t want to just get a dog because I think they look cool, I want to do my due diligence and make sure a borzoi would be a good fit for me. So far in terms of research online about their personalities and activity level I think it would be a good match. Does it make sense to go to dog shows or lure coursing events? Where I live there is a Windhundrennbahn that has events and I thought about dropping by with my own dog (she loves to run and chase a lure).

Is it weird to show up to dog shows to just to poke about and ask questions? Borzoi is such a rare breed that I can’t think of any other way to meet people with one other than attending some kind of event.

I’ve done some research on breeders in Germany and there are a couple I will likely contact in the future. But I’m open to any recommendations if anyone has some!
