puptastic loves chachi
I think my friend Yimay's dog Chachi is the most stylish chihuahua I've ever seen -- I mean, check out his little striped mohawk! Williamsburg hipsters wish they were half as cool as he is, but they probably never will be.
You can see more of Chachi on Flickr or his very own website, chachiversace.com.

pet er
Poor Pedro Williams! We at Puptastic HQ wish him the speediest of recoveries.
This photo is from casualsoul's brief but poignant Pet ER set. All the photographs were taken within a few hours in the evening at their local ER vet practice.

a call to arms
Something in Daniel Terdiman's recent Wired piece, "Folksonomies Tap People Power", really bugs me and if you're reading this I suspect it might get you too:
If the photo-sharing site Flickr is any indication, the world of digital photographers is dominated by cat people.
Dog owners would probably object. But because of Flickr's tagging system, which allows the photographers or other users to assign identifying tags to most photos on the service, we know that Flickr hosts 23,081 images tagged with "cat" or "cats" and only 17,463 with "dog" or "dogs."
As both the dog person and avid Flickr user that I am, these numbers make me feel sad, perhaps even sadder than Jarvis in a t-shirt:
Clearly, Flickr's system was not set up to motivate a feline-canine supremacy contest.
Excuse me, but I beg to disagree.
Fellow dog-loving Flickrers, this is a call to arms! Take, upload and tag as many photos of dogs as you can! At least one a day if that's possible, but more is always better. We might've lost the battles so far, but together we will win the war.
