“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F.

And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 64 - Your Life As A Dog

What would my life be like if I was a dog?  For one, I would eat more and see better at night.  But now I feel bad for my little babies, because I'm sure the surround system in our house is twice as loud for them.  Hmmm, then again, they sleep soundly when Ryan and I are watching a movie.  LOL.

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 63 - Dog Gets Emotional Watching The Lion King

This video is both adorable and sad at the same time.

Watch this cute pug get emotional as Simba mourns over the death of his father, Mufasa in The Lion King.  This dog may actually bring you to tears.  No joke.

How I See My Dog

The Oatmeal has given us a couple charts on how we see our dogs and how our dogs see us.  They're pretty spot on. Lol.  You can see the other side, after the jump.

How I See My FriendBeast by The Dog

So here's the flipside of the diagram The Oatmeal shared with us earlier - this one is by The Dog.  Want to know how it views it's "FriendBeast"?  Take a look. Lol.

A Very Special Moment - Issue #10: Omelette

This is the cutest and sweetest short film I've seen in a very long time.  And I guess it's even more special because Ryan and I are pet owners.  

For the past 3 years my little Duchess has layed on my chest at night and then snuggled underneath the covers as I fall asleep.  Before that, it was Princess.  And both protected me with their lives; Duchess, even more so.

But this film isn't really about a pet, it's about cooking for someone you love.  You'll have to watch the video to understand.

Must Watch: Spacebound

This short film is about a boy and his small dog who have crash-landed in outer space.  The film isn't so much about what they're going to do with the little oxygen that remains.  But more about what they're going to do together with the time they have left.  Check it out - it's really powerful.

When Death’s door is only a few breaths away, how would you choose to spend your last moments?
The film was made by two seniors attending the School of Visual Arts, Ellen Su and Kyle Moy. [vimeo]

Things That Make You Go Hmmm... Dogs Smarter Than Cats?

 Dogs can understand about a two hundred word human vocabulary while a cat only comprehends about fifty words.
 
"I'll teach my dog 100 words," says the boy in the children's story of the same name. But can he really? Dog owners love to gush about canine intelligence. So it would come as no surprise to them that research supports their beliefs that dogs have a profound mental capacity. But how much of our language do dogs really understand? It turns out that the language comprehension of some dogs rivals that of apes and parrots, not to mention the average 3-year-old. [read more]

Happy Easter everyone!  Enjoy your day and be safe.

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 59 - The Photo Bombing Dog

Our dogs would so do this.  I can't count the number of times our 4 chihuahuas photo bomb our camera while we're recording a video or taking pictures.  Just recently I was posting a video on YouTube and there was our chihuahua, Lady, photo-bombing away.

Checkout this Craigslist apartment listing where this cute dog has managed to photo-bomb every photo in the ad.  Too adorable.
