First up is the dog known as the Weimaraner. I said to my friend Patricia that I wanted a dog, and I've been researching it and was thinking about a Basenji. And she's like what about the Weimaraner? I love the Weimaraner, she says. So I take a look and am like, this looks like a ghost of a dog, not a real dog. All grey and washed out and tired looking. Looks like it's been drinking a fifth of vodka every day for 20 years. So, I made this funny (I think!) graphic featuring the Alcoholic Weimaraner brand.

  • Also: Caring for Dingoes: 'The Australian Dingo Handbook' covers what you need to know if you are considering owning a dingo. Published by the Australian Dingo Conservation Association, this book introduces the history of the Dingo in Australia, gives you a description of their behaviour and development, tells you how to care for dingoes and discusses the problems in conserving the Dingo. In the wild, the Dingo gene pool is apparently being lost as a result of hybridisation with domestic dogs. The Handbook explains how Dingoes are different to domestic dogs and why the Association believes Dingoes are unsuitable to be kept as pets. The Association is a non-profit organisation formed to protect the Australian Dingo. Handbook available from the Australian Dingo Conservation Association, PO Box 444, Erindale Centre, ACT 2903, for $13.00 including postage and handling.
