Dackel
Did you know that the German name for this breed is actually "dackel" and not dachshund? English speakers call them "dachshunds" because this is a combo of the German word for "badger" and "dog", which makes sense. However, if you cross the pond and go for a drink in the Altstadt in Dusseldorf, for example, you will introduce your dog to your friends as a dackel!

Welcome Back to Dog Town!
We hope that everyone had a fun and safe Memorial Day, but we also missed some of our regular furry faces! Today it was back to business as usual. It was so so nice that the weather cooperated also.

La Piscine
That's right, we opened the Big Pool today! The sun was high in the sky and the temperature was climbing, and with our pool freshly filtered it seemed like the perfect opening day. Some of our pups were pretty enthused, and some were...not. As always we maintain safety first and made sure that there were only a few dogs swimming at a time and we had "lifeguards" on duty. We also had a small life jacket for our smaller canines on hand. Everyone had a blast!

This One's For You Snow Dogs
We have all kinds of dogs here at Divine Canine; shaggy dogs, skinny dogs, plump dogs, happy dogs, little dogs, really really big dogs, loud dogs that talk, and quiet dogs that observe- you name it, we've got it. Today was a day for all of our big shaggies. You know, those dogs that like to sleep outside in the snow when it's 15 degrees out. It's the end of May and perhaps these dogs thought they wouldn't be properly happy and comfortable again until November, but surprise surprise, today was a day just for them. See in the snow fort!

'Twas another blissful spring day here at the Divine Canine. We've heard that cold and *gasp* possibly even snow are on the way, so we were determined to make the most of the warmth today. We hope that you did too!

Rainy Thundery May Kind of Day
Rain, snow, thunder, hail- ah, the joys of May! We take it in stride here and still have fun, weather (see what I did there?) we are playing inside or outside.

Welcome to Lake Divine
On these lovely sunny days our pups can't get enough of "Lake Divine", aka the pools we put out. Did you know that Lake Divine also has waterfalls? These "waterfalls" are actually hoses, but the effect is pretty much the same.

Magical, Majestic, Magnificent Mondays
I can understand how so many people hate Mondays, really, I can. I can see why Garfield may have hidden under his blanket and shredded his day calendar. Around here though it just means that our familiar fuzzy faces come back to play. We don't hate Mondays, you see, we relish them. Sorry (but not that sorry) Garfield.

Soak Up The Sun While It Lasts, My Friends
"What's that?" says Oakley. "This lovely spring sunshine is going to be replaced by snow and sleet? Well I never." I know, Oakley, I know. Harsh. We hope all our canine companions and their humans hope stay warm and safe this weekend!

Kisses, Love
It's always a good day when you catch the dogs here at D.C/ doling out the kisses. Sometimes it's Lick O'Clock, and when that happens you had better be ready for a face wash!

AAAHHHHH BOBO'S (BUBBLES)
Ah, bobo's, otherwise known to English speakers as bubbles. What a fleeting fancy upon the wind. One minute they float enticingly past your face and the next minute they splatter all over you leaving you damp and soapy.

Tell Me About It, Storm
Traditionally rainy stormy days are good for sitting inside and chatting, but when it comes to the dogs at the Divine Canine a little precipitation doesn't mean much. Storm, our cover dog, is perfectly happy to lounge in the rain. After all, what is rain to a dog, but an extra bath?

Let's all take a moment to reflect on the awesomeness of ourselves, much like Lucky Potato is doing in this photo.

Greetings Earthling
We here at the Divine Canine do so enjoy these terrestrials that play with us. Although they appear quite ungainly on their two flimsy legs they bring hoses, pools, and toys for us to enjoy. We have decided to stay here and frolic. Please enjoy these images of us that the terrestrials have captured.

If You Have a Dog
Thorns may hurt you, men desert you, sunlight turn to fog;
but you're never friendless ever, if you have a dog.

Twofer
How do you choose between a vacation in Thailand or Australia? Skittles or M&M's? Halloween or Christmas? Bottle rockets July 4th, or ten packs of sparklers all lit at once? Some things are just too hard to choose between, which is why today's cover photo is not one but two gorgeous pups. I give to you for your viewing pleasure Blitzen (and Kili), and Oleg!

Technical Difficulties...Please Stand By
It was a gloriously sunny day. The breeze was brisk and the dogs were energized and ready to go. Our kennel staff waded through the flying fur and wagging tails, valiantly taking pictures with our trusty old GoPro, in order to bring our viewers the images they craved. Unfortunately it was not to be. Due to technical difficulties the pictures have been cruelly trapped on the laptop and cannot be enjoyed by viewers such as yourselves. This is, truly, a dark day in canine history.

Okay, Did Everyone Drink Espresso Today?
So what's the deal dog owners? Did y'all pour espresso into everyone's doggie dish this morning? It may have been cool and overcast but all of our pups here at the D.C. couldn't wait to bound, leap, twist, roll, race, muck about, and generally throw their limbs in every possible direction. I think there will be more than one sleepy dog this evening..

These Puppies Are In Cahoots
Yes, on this brisk but sunny everyone's mischievous side came out. Pictured above are two of our daycare pups, who are clearly up to no good. Can you also see the little snout peeking out at them from underneath the blue play equipment?
