The most incredible piece of CCTV video ever

A dog, a lift, a long lead and a man with 30 eggs... what could possibly go wrong?

LiveLeak.com - Dog escapes near death in an elevator


How did 10 eggs survive that?

I couldn't embed that LiveLeak video (does anyone know how to do that now) but here's a brave dog rescue in similar circumstances from Russia.

Rescued after three weeks at sea following the Japanese tsunami



Rescued from floating wreckage some way off the Japanese coast, a small wiry dog who must have been very scared, hungry and thirsty for the last three weeks.

Spot of the day

My post last night of the guilty labrador elicited a great spot from Llew in the comments to the post:
'That reminds me of Gordon Brown's sickly grin which suddenly appeared when he realised the cameras were on him.'

Here's a reminder of the video


Excellent spot Llew.

And here is the video that Llew remembered

What does a guilty dog look like?


Denver the labrador with the strangest look I have seen on a dog's face. It's circumstantial evidence but I say GUILTY.

A severely traumatised dog?


The Telegraph report this automatic dog (and cat) washer dryer as a humerous animal story. However note the dog's frantic scrabbling to escape when the machine door is shut and the way it clings to the handler when taken from the machine; this looks like a very cruel way to treat an animal to me.

Unconditional love


The reception for a soldier returning from Afghanistan from his dog. I think "pleased" is an understatement. Mind you after a long tour of duty I would have hoped for a similar response from my wife...



Thanks to Theo Spark for the spot.

Dog and machine in perfect harmony


A game of fetch made easy by the application of technology.



Thanks to The Speculist for the spot.

The country is going to the dogs, whilst the Conservatives own the dogs

A most contrived title to report that according to the BBC:
"Bob Spink has won the Westminster dog of the year contest with his two greyhounds, Fozzy Bear and Jessie.

Mr Spink, who defected to UKIP from the Conservatives earlier this year, beat off competition from 11 other entries

...

Roger Gale and Andrew Rosindell, both Conservatives, filled the runner-up spots."
Why all Conservatives or ex-Conservatives? Don't Labour and LibDem MPs like dogs?

What is interesting is that I read and then re-read this article to see where the anti-Conservative BBC bias was... and I couldn't find any; which is not to say that it isn't there!
