Plus hilarious tweets from folks like you. • Ellen DeGeneres tells you about her dogs’ intelligence — "I’m smarter than my dogs. Well, smarter than one of my dogs." • Dave Barry advises you on the best dog food for your dog — for starters, be sure you get “brown dog food." • Jerry Seinfeld observes: "On my block, a lot of people walk their dogs and I always see them walking along with their little poop bags. This, to me, is the lowest activity in human life. Following a dog with a little scooper.” • The Onion advises on “Choosing the Right Dog for You” — "First, decide which type of dog hair you want to stick to everything you own for the rest of your life.” • The Onion also offers tips for training your dog — including, "Start with simple commands like 'sit' before working your way up to the more complicated ones like 'fill the gaping void in my life.'" • The New Yorker talks about “Things I Want to Ask My Dog” — such as, "That time I came home and the garbage was all over the kitchen floor, and you acted like you couldn’t remember how it happened because you 'live in the moment,' did you actually remember? Be honest.” • Humorist Jack Handey advises: "Better not take a dog on the space shuttle, because if he sticks his head out when you’re coming home his face might burn up.” And several hundred pages more.

Pets Immediately Available for Adoption
Jason Roeder
Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet! While we can’t guarantee
that every dog or cat you see listed on our Web site will be available at the
shelter when you arrive, there are several members of our furry family
that have been with us quite a while and will almost certainly be here,
eagerly awaiting you. Help give them the love they desperately,
desperately need!
Jake
This three-year-old boxer mix suffered years of psychological abuse at the
hands of his prior owners, in Brooklyn, who named him Terrence Q.
Fluffernutter, Esq., for no discernible reason. Though he is slowly
adjusting to having a real dog’s name, Jake remains understandably
skittish and could benefit from a less traumatically ironic environment.
Wanda
It’s a mystery to us why this six-year-old calico has been here so long,
other than the fact that she sits perfectly still all day — like, totally
motionless. Never moves. This kitty would be perfect for any home that’s
looking for a low-maintenance pet or is seriously considering adopting a
small pile of leaves.
