    Youtube why the heck are you recommending dog agility videos to me?
    So I started using chrome and youtube definitely uses your browsing history to recommend videos to you.

    I also think they put some spyware on my computer for the same reason. They definitely know when I've watched certain movies from my dvd drive and played certain games without ever searching for these things on youtube itself.

    I have never searched for anything related to dog agility. And I don't have any films about dog agility nor do I play Dog Agility Simulator 1 or 2.

    Now I'm sad there's not a Dog Agility 1 and 2 to play

    It's basically this. Youtube shows you what they want to promote over what you might actually want to see

    I enjoyed this article from the BBC:

    Estonians rescue wild wolf from ice thinking it was a dog

    The wolf was covered in ice when pulled from the near-frozen water

    "He was calm, slept on my legs," Mr Kartsepp said of the journey to the vet's office
    BBC wrote:
    Kind-hearted Estonian workers rushed to rescue a dog in distress from a freezing river on Wednesday - unaware of the fact they were actually about to bundle a wild wolf into their car.

    The men were working on the Sindi dam on the Parnu river when they spotted the animal trapped in the icy water.

    After clearing a path through the ice, they took the frozen canine to a clinic for medical care.

    Only then was it revealed they had been carrying a wolf.

    The Estonian Union for the Protection of Animals (EUPA) said the wolf had low blood pressure when it arrived at the veterinarian's office, which may have explained its docile nature after the men carried it to their car to warm it up.

    Speaking to the Estonian newspaper Postimees, one of the men, Rando Kartsepp, said: "We had to carry him over the slope. He weighed a fair bit."

    "He was calm, slept on my legs. When I wanted to stretch them, he raised his head for a moment," he added.

    Veterinarians had some suspicions over the large dog's true nature, but it was a local hunter, familiar with the region's wolves, who finally confirmed it for what it was: a young male wolf, about a year old.

    Armed with this new information, clinic staff decided to put the wolf in a cage after treatment - in case it became less docile once it recovered.

    The EUPA said it paid for the animal's treatment, and that "luckily, everything turned out well".

    The wolf recovered from its brush with death within the day and, after being fitted with a GPS collar by researchers from the national environmental agency, was released back into the wild.

    "We are so happy for the outcome of the story, and wish to thank all the participants – especially these men who rescued the wolf and the doctors of the clinic who were not afraid to treat and nurture the wild animal," EUPA said.

    Estonia is home to hundreds of wolves, only a handful of which have been collared in recent years. As a species, they usually avoid humans.

    It was picked as Estonia's national animal last year by a group of nature organisations.

    Whichever chair is warm because you've been sitting in it will become his chair. Especially if you leave a blanket on it.

    At least he's not sitting on the laptop.

    That's where my cat likes to go, I think largely due to the warmth.

    That cat has a very fitting name. Have you heard their pretty great theme song?

    There is actually a very good reason he is named Leopold, but to tell that story I have to start with my previous cat, Guinness. Guinness and I were buddies. He was the biggest, fuzziest, dumbest animal I had ever seen. He also came when he was called, something I have never managed with another cat. Sorry, no good pictures, this is best I could come up with:
    g88r89y2j4ic.jpg

    Guinness' kidneys failed and he died about a week after developing symptoms. I was pretty sure I would never have a cat again. It felt like bringing a new cat home would be an act of betrayal. Years passed and, out of nowhere, I just needed a cat again. My wife and I checked out the humane societie's web site, found a few cats to investigate, and off we went. Leopold was not one these cats.

    The candidates were all hiding. As I moved from room to room I heard another couple stop, gasp, and say 'look at that one.' This happened several times with different people, and every time it was an expression of amazement. I had to see.

    There he was, holding court from a locked room. He came home within the hour.

    That night I retreated to my basement and this happened:

    1zgb4luae00a.jpg

    and I knew I had done the right thing.

    The name? Well...
