WHOA, Freaky Synchronicity: A couple of hours ago I unpacked my collection of old bOING-bOINGS and SF Eye mags. Issue #15 of the latter (the last issue, damnit) has a review I wrote comparing Olaf Stapledon's _Sirius_ and Bakis' _Lives of the Monster Dogs_. I reread it with those snappy looking doggle-dogs in mind. (I liked both books, but think _Sirius_ was more honest. Also horribly tragic.)

You shouldn't have bought her the Beef Jerky flavored doggles, Jer.
But seriously, why not complain? They should make a yet smaller size...

I purchased a pair of these for a small Jack Russel Terrier about a month ago. They were the smallest size they make - peewee size. Not only are they a bit too large for pooch's head, but the second she got a chance she put her chin on the ground, her paws behind her head, pulled them off, and began seriously devouring them.
Doggles beware

I also ran across these in the Doggie Bloggie over at Bonnie's Grrl.com, which you dog lovers might enjoy. It's in the July archive. Has anyone gotten a picture of a dog in MiG goggles (you know, Cory-style)? Edited 08-13-2002 01:49 PM

Now my mom's little bug-eyed boston terriers can pursue a life as frisbee dogs, just as they've always dreamed of. And they can become world famous and care for her in her old age, and I won't be forced to leave her at a greyhound station with a one way ticket and no id.

Who would have known dogs could be so damned cool!, They should audition for men in black 3.

My dog has something similar to these - he wears them when we go walking. Or at least, he used to.
I was walking him through San Francisco recently when a bigger dog - one of the ones that hangs out on the corner by the hydrants all day sniffing butts - walked up to him and asked to try them on...

I don't trust a dog, I can't look in the eye.

There's something both adorable and mildly disturbing about those Shade-wearing German shepherds.
