  1. That's a cute photo you used today. I can see why they picked that as the state dog, at least based on the name. Enjoy your Saturday CJ! hugs-Erika

  6. That was very interesting!!!
    Here these dogs still have a rather bad, aka being highly aggressive reputation.
    Now I wonder if "we" have an aggressive breed?
    I´m afraid of dogs per se, but this video - apart from the farting and snoring (!!!!) makes them cute.

  8. From the name alone, I can see why this dog was chosen as the state mascot.
