“I guess she’s a Border Collie or an Aussie Shep?”
That’s a good guess. We think she’s either or both and so does the vet. She is DEFINITELY a herding dog – likes to put other dogs, cats, etc. in order and guard the perimeters.

By the way, here’s a video of Bella running in the snow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy91GI6JNO8

And here are some neighbor kids (and my nephew is in the mix, too) building a snowman: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvkQjIu2JO8

PS – Did you know that cute, little puppy Joe Biden just got came from a puppymill? Here’s the story: http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/harrisburg_politics/Kennel_where_Biden_bought_puppy_is_cited.html

Tomorrow, the Saturday before Christmas, is the busiest puppy-buying day of the year. Even though 2/3 of Americans say they think Obama should adopt his dog from a shelter rather than buy from a breeder, millions of Americans still buy dogs from pet stores (pet store dogs almost always come from puppymills). If you want to help stop that, please get involved tomorrow: http://www.vegansoapbox.com/adopt-dont-shop/

Love Bella! Especially the 2 tone eyes! I guess she’s a Border Collie or an Aussie Shep? Good luck with her!

We just posted a couple of new Jilli Dog video’s! Animal Planet did a really nice segment about her, and the Japanese TV show came to NY to film her again, it seems that she’s very popular in Japan! A famous Japanese TV/movie star came too, because he wanted to play poker with Jilli Dog! The vid is behind the scenes of the taping, was good fun!

Also, if you want to teach Floyd and Bella how to push a wagon, I just posted that lesson at JilliDog.com Try it, it’s pretty cool and simple…

Best regards, Rick Caran (video linkls below)

I love the photos. Generally, bloggers don’t include them, and they are a nice touch imo.

Ed, if you need to cancel Christmas in order to get that book finished, please don’t hesitate to do so.

Ever since my father Sima Tan’s passing I have been unable to muster up the requisite energy to find the appropriate superlative to describe this much-anticipated book. Also, I’m a palace eunuch, so I may have lost my “zest” for many things.

Sima Qian, how do you define awesomeness? I mean, we know already that it will be awesome, so what superlatives could we give him to narrow the range of awesomness … super-awesome? terrifically-awesome? awesomely awesome? black-belt-awesome? AA-awesome? Royal-flush-awesome?

“Unfortunately, every time it feels like a book is almost done, it always takes a few more months from that point before it’s actually ready to go to print”

Is this due to adding more content or refining what you have? Any comments on the length of the book or what subjects it will touch on or how awesome it will be?

As I have mentioned over on Stox, I think the blind stealing videos have been going extremely well. They really are doing a great job of taking the topic and building the information from the ground up. A very thorough series so far and I’m sure that will continue.
