When I look at this pile of wood, I think “winter fuel”.

When others look at it, they think  “lots of fetch sticks”.

According to dog owner Greg Stroke, he knows exactly what his dog did while he was sleeping.  The ever helpful lab-hound mix, Oscar allegedly ordered up 5,000 Xbox points (at $62.50), for him.  What a pal! Amazingly, Oscar managed to chew the remote control for Greg’s Xbox in exactly the right sequence to order up the points.  According to Oscar’s owner, the credit card information had been programmed into the remote.  Riiiiight….  When Greg was a kid, did his dog frequently eat his homework?

Montréal dog-walker cuffed by police officer

police_dog_storyA Montreal police officer has been suspended for five days for handcuffing a dog-walker for no apparent reason.  The police officer admitted to “using insulting language, making a wrongful arrest and handcuffing.”  Montreal Gazette.

In other cities in North America and Europe, the police see dog-walkers as their eyes and ears in the community.  From the British DogWatch program:

Dog walkers tend to be out in the early mornings or evenings when other people are more likely to be indoors. Because of this, they might see and hear things relating to crime, anti social behaviour or other suspicious activity that we may not know about.
