a lab chief's golden retriever has eight second-author publications to his name.
I've long had my suspicions about some of our authors...
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Hmm, my old boss at Duke used to bring his dog into the lab from time to time, but as far as I know he never put the dog as an author on his papers.

Goldens are like the stoner slackers of the canine world.
You have not met my sister's Golden. There's a reason she is called the Demon Dog. If you don't give her something to do every moment, she will invent something to do, usually something associated with food on the counters, dirty underpants, or footwear.
She is ridiculously pretty, I will grant you; but she's a demon under that glossy coat and big brown eyes.

OTOH, a stoner slacker dog is much more likely to just loaf around in the lab doorway amiably snoozing and much less likely to careen around looking frantically for a Job To Do and ploughing into centrifuges and coolers of dry ice and such.
An organization here, Catholic Charities, maybe?, sent a team of 10 stoner slacker dogs (with handlers) to hang with relatives and victims in Newtown.

brenda m: here's pictures of the dogs.
Made me sniffly. Well-behaved Goldens are the best. (And to be fair, even the Demon Dog has her marvelous moments. She just has too much energy and smarts right now.)

Our wings are not tired
When I was hospitalized for a month a few years ago there was a therapy dog that came to visit, and I can honestly say it really helped raise my spirits.

OK, here is the most bizarre, inspiring thing I've read in quite a while. Apparently my motivation needs me to be sworn at and made to laugh.
6 Harsh Truths. And I'm going off to giggle about buffalo gazing into my soul.

A therapy dog would totally raise my spirits. Can I get one to come visit me at work? Dang, if only my sister would follow through on her plans to take over my basement, I would have her puppy! Guess I"ll have to put in some time cuddling him at Christmas.

I am very pleased with it. There's still a wee bit of purple at the end of my bangs, but it's subtle.
