And you thought we had a lot of dogs!

I get the "Wow you really have seven dogs?" speech at least twice a week, and in reality we have eight at the moment but one is a puppy and hopefully he will find a new home soon. Seven is really not so many if they are only 3lbs each its kind of like having eight very opinionated guinea pigs. heh.

Could you only imagine one hundred and ONE dogs? 101 Dalmations always confused me as a child as though it was one of my favorite books and the animated movie got lots of play time in my household there isn't actually 101 dalmatians if you count Pongo and Perdy the mom and dad dalmatian there are in total 17, 15 puppies, 2 parents. I think they just thought 101 sounds better than 15 dalmatians. Well what I forgot to add is the real reason its 101 dalmatians is thats how many dalmation puppies that would be required to make the dreaded dalmation puppy coat. Lets leave that little point out though for the kids.

The live action 101 Dalmations staring Glenn Close the storyline is basically the same, and its absolutely amazing how much Glenn Close's version of Cruilla actually looks JUST like Cruella so much so that she is actually sort of creepy. Actually the only part of the entire movie that I perfer in the animated verses the live action is the dog nappers Jasper and Norace, I donno they are just too "home alone bad guy" for me. All those uppies though.. sOOOoo cute.

As a dog show person myself I really have to warn parents, all those puppies are absolutely beautiful but please don't go out and buy a puppy only because its cute. Research what is best for your family, or find a breeder in the national breed club and ask them candid questions about the breed. I promise you they would rather not sell you a puppy than sell you a puppy that will be wrong for your family.

101 Dalmations is back on DVD and such a classic story deserves a spot on everyone's dvd shelf! Pick up your copy at Amazon!

I have two copies of 101 Dalmations to give away to our readers!!
