Dogs need to sniff the ground; it's how they keep abreast of current events.  The ground is a giant dog newspaper, containing all kinds of late-breaking dog news items, which, if they are especially urgent, are often continued in the next yard.

Only one White House dog - a Beagle -- has ever made the American Kennel Club's record books:  Greeson's Chum, affectionaly known as J. Edgar (after J. Edgar Hoover), won second place in the Chambersburg (Pennsylvania) Beagle Club Trial in 1966.  His owner was President Lyndon Baines Johnson.

Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend.   Inside a dog, it's too dark to read.

         --Groucho Marx

The first registered champion of the American Kennel Club was a Beagle named Sir Novice.  He won the championship on November 21, 1910.

There are three faithful friends - an old wife, an old dog, and ready money.
