MRI and CT scanners, a pain rehabilitation center and an underwater treadmill – those are just some of the state-of-the-art facilities pets can benefit from at a new animal hospital in the United Kingdom.

I nearly fell on the floor laughing this morning when Denali gave me a piece of his mind for a near minute.

Eureka! My boys must have some Russian Blue in them.

It looks as if zits are a side effect of doggy kisses.

If by chance my parents are not quick enough closing the door, boom – he’s out like a shot. But the pups are having no part of that.

At 65 pounds and 27 inches at the shoulder (nearly 6 feet on his hind legs), Denali is no lap dog.

She made sure she was always there, with him, so he wouldn’t be alone.

Penny Lane Beglin rolls with the trends, so it wasn’t long before she discovered Facebook. Now she has 72 friends!

It seemed so ludicrous. Our trainer wanted us to brush Denali's teeth. Seriously, she expected me to put my hand in his mouth ... and him to let me? Yep. And she wanted me to do it every day.

Denali's diet has been known to include a squirrel carcass and a runaway apple.

Cody is getting to the point where I can leave him alone while I run out for a few hours, but not in the dark.

I won’t say dogs are stupid … but you get a kitten, show it a litter box, and bam. The cat is trained.

When I checked on her, I saw a green leash leading under my bed and the tiniest sliver of black nose sticking out. I tried not to cry.

Just as I was about to give up, he assumed the position and did his business.

May the happiest dog win, even if its fur is disheveled.

While some of us are afraid for our cats at Halloween, there are those who fear cats even more.
