  1. ENY- I love boxers too. My cousin used to breed them from one of the championship lines. They had the sweetest faces and great personalities- just uber-exuberant. But as a group my faves are the sight hounds. Don’t know if that’s the right term but a friend whose father bred championship beagles used it. And I think one of the most beautiful dogs I’ve seen are the Norwegian Elkhounds.

  2. And my favorite part of the article:

    “Some shoppers are asking cashiers at high-end stores to put their purchases in plain white paper bags. Others want their expensive clothes and jewelry shipped home so they can walk out of the store without any bags at all.
    “There’s a sense of there being a gaucheness in spending in excess and coming home with a Louis Vuitton or Chanel bag,” says Lucyann Barry, a personal shopper and stylist for New York’s ultra-rich.”

  3. Continuation of the ‘Bash the Rich’ movement:

    “So New York’s very wealthy are addressing their distress in discreet and often awkward ways. They try to move their $165 sessions with personal trainers to a time slot that they know is already taken. They agree to tour multimillion-dollar apartments and then say the spaces don’t match their specifications. They apply for a line of credit before art auctions, supposedly to buy a painting or a sculpture, but use that borrowed money to pay other debts.”

  4. “Either her or the Scottie who I think threw it away it when she peed on the carpet to the Awwwww of the crowd.”

    Whoa! I missed that!! Yeah, that’s a dog show no-no! You can’t pee on the rug and win the Super Bowl of dog shows. BAD dog! Maybe she/he was nervous.

    I liked “Stump” too! He is a deserving winner. Great expression, beautiful color. That Giant Schnauzer is a lot of dog!
