Dogs and National Dog Day
I’ve had several pets in my life but nothing compares to my dogs. They are faithful companions and protectors, they sense when I’m feeling low and try to kiss me, and best of all, they don’t talk back!
Since National Dog Day is Thursday, August 26, 2010, I’d like to honor my dogs and yours with some fun links that can be used in your homeschooling:

I didn’t know that there was a national dog day. Guess we’ll have to do something to celebrate with our furry companion.
My daughter LOVES Dogs 101! She is a huge animal fan. We will have to check out your links. ☺ Thanks.
Thanks for all those links. We have two dogs and I can’t imagine raising my kids without them.
