The animals I work with
Everybody wants to get into the act. The latest attention grabber is Claire Webb, our newest addition to the business desk.
Ok, I lied. I've been begging Claire for weeks to send me pics of her two dogs. YOU try to find something to write about every day!
Meet Shirley and Miles, a pair of weinder dogs that are about the cutest thing ever. I especially like daschunds because they provide me the opportunity to use the joke about always wanting to get a long little doggie.
Here's how Claire describes them:
Shirley and Miles were brought into the house for one specific purpose--to cure my mother's empty nest syndrome after her three daughters left for college. Now they outrank the children in terms of parental affection.
Shirley is the alpha female commanding everyone in the household, while Miles chooses to remain a low-key follower. These little weiner dogs have definitely turned a big-dog loving household into a dashund one.

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

Josh Grossberg grew up with the usual array of animals: goldfish, dogs, hamsters, parakeets and turtles. He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.

How cute they are! I love weiner dogs too. They don't know how small they are and have a lot of attitude in a little package.
