Don't let them do this -- or worse -- to you, fellow Dogster dogs! Run and hide 'til midnight!
Kim and I were immediately drawn to a friendly Leonberger, only to find that one of the women in the booth lives not five miles from my home and recognized my name. The upside: The next time she breeds, I get to go snuggle big furry puppers. Awesome. Pictured is Gunther, who is “still growing” at 130 pounds. If I could have snuck him into carry-on luggage, I would have. What a sweetheart he is! (The light isn’t great in the Long Beach convention center, so everything ends up a little blurry when you’re not that good a photographer and you’re shooting with a smart phone).
