I'm not really dog-adjacent, but I dream about them sometimes.

Years ago the dream dogs were always aggressive and would attack me, but nowadays they're always friendly.

Back during the nightmare dog attack phase, my therapist suggested that the dogs represented my own anger and violence.

So maybe the friendly dream dogs of today indicate that I have come to terms with my inner turmoil and no longer fear it.

I grew up around dogs but I used to have scary dreams about foxes. For some reason as a child they terrified me; I guess waking up in the middle of the night to the occasional fox shock screams didn't help, and the fact I knew they lived in the fields behind out house, as evident by all the fox holes. I remember once as a child having a dream about being deep down in a fox's lair. bawl

Interesting - I seem to remember that Wendi has reported rather more pleasant dreams about foxes.

Japanese man spends £12,480 to look like a dog

A Japanese man spent approximately 2 million yen (£12,480) on a realistic border collie costume because he wanted to look like his favourite breed of dog.

The man, identified only as Toko, hired a Japanese company called Zeppet, which is known for creating sculptures and models for movies and commercials, to create the costume.

-----

Toko posted a video of himself in his costume last month, where he can be seen waving his paw and rolling around the floor.

When I was a child my cousins had a *copy&paste* chihuahua who lived to about 17 or 18 and had the blue (cataracts?) eyes like that one, and very few teeth.

When a Mexican friend of mine came to London for the first time, a woman out in the smoking section/pavement outside the pub heard us talking and bounded over to say 'Oh, you're from Mexico are you? How exciting. What a coincidence - I actually have a chihuahua'.

For many years I was under the impression that chihuahuas were called chichihuahuas.
