Awesome. I couldn’t possibly explain this any better. I mean, not awesome for the poor dogs tied into costumes and forced to act as humans of course, but awesome nonetheless. Whoever thought of this bizarre mess should have won an Oscar. Named The Dogway Melody, this was a dog-only spoof or parody, or something, of the first all-musical film, The Broadway Melody, released in 1929 and is also available as an extra on the Broadway Melody special edition DVD. Dogway Melody picks up with Mr. Cur, a Broadway producer, who puts on a show and makes a play for the leading lady. Played by various, dogs. So, uh, enjoy?

An inventive pet shop owner in the Netherlands has created an interesting liquid refreshment for her pet dogs, Doggy Beer. Originally as a way to reward their hunting dogs for the days hunt (in Austria no less), the beer known as Kwispelbier, is made out of beef and malt extracts and while fit for human consumption, is probably the most horrid tasting thing ever put into a bottle by a professional brewer. It’s non-alcoholic and costs around 1.65 EUR per bottle.

Now we’re talking. SkyBark, a new upscale club for sophisticated canines and their human companions, is expanding from their Los Angeles location (where else?) with a new location opening in Boston. Offering stylish dog-friendly furniture, music, food and even puppy cocktails, SkyBark will most certainly become one of the greatest inventions known to man and dog alike, as long as they can keep riff-raff like Paris Hilton out.

A brilliant idea turned into a sub-par hoax, don’t go planning a trip to Florida with fluffles just yet. The idea behind Dog Island is that abused, homeless and abandoned dogs of all shapes and sizes have a wide-open, natural habitat free for them to roam around and enjoy the life of a dog. The island has a full-time staff, running an immunization center, an injury/trauma center, and much more. Natural prey are released onto the island as a main source of food, with supplemental foodstuffs being available for the more passive canines. The idea was brilliant (in my honest opinion), this coming from someone who wants to open his own dog farm in Montana, but unfortunately, the doggy island paradise is not to be. Several years ago, Snopes AKA the internet detective agency, ruled Dog Island to be a hoax. They also confirmed that land prices on the REAL Dog Island off the coast of Florida are insanely high.
