The Blog Show!

Why a dog blog? Because the vast majority of the contemporary dog press is geared to novice pet owners. Great. That has a place. But the person who has an expert knowledge of dogs is left with "news" and "commentary" that has been reduced to the kibble of hundreds of pages of glossy show dog touts, low-level gossip, and corporate glad-handing. Enough!

We are starting this premier edition of caninenewsblog with an overview of the latest developments in the world of Black and Tan Coonhounds. We are reprinting "The Emperor's New Coonhound: Is Your Parent Club Safe?" (with additional commentary) which currently is published at http://www.thedogplace.com. Outside the blogasphere, thedogplace.com appears to be the last place controversial canine articles can be printed anymore. We thank Barbara J. Andrews for going forward with this article and ask you to check out the link to her site.

Your response posts are welcome - Naturally, the word "bitch" is acceptable, but we won't be posting profanity, defamatory or disparaging remarks,or any trivia about your own dogs. We are interested in an exchange of intelligent commentary - relevant and to the point.
