* Catahoula Leopard Dog? Is that some kind of laboratory mutation?
* Easiest to spot after they run away: Great Dane and Saint Bernard.
* The dogs most likely to run away? Try all of them. That’s why we have to tie them up all day.
* Ahh, the Great Pyrenees. You know you’re a big dog when you’re named after a mountain range.
* Saddest name? “Standard Poodle.” It’s about as exciting a name as “plain yogurt.”
