Additional update: I have received a written (email) apology from one of the editors of the KARK (news station) website. Apparently they had my image in a bank of photos they use for stories. (and who knows how many other images not in the public domain). They took down the picture. The story about the dogs in the forest has gone national (do a Google news search on dogs national forest if you want to follow this).

To the editors of ArkansasMatters re: a terrible story about the mayor of a local town having dogs from a local shelter turned loose in a National Forest and disbanding local shelter facilities. Not only is the story bad enough - the web site editors STOLE MY IMAGE without permission to use on what they are calling their top story.
This is a followup to the original story.
Here is what I wrote to the news website.
Concern: I would like to inform you that you are using a stolen image on your top story(6-16-08) about the dogs turned loose in the National Forest. Not only is this a terrible situation for the dogs, and speaks badly for the autorities in your region, you yourselves are setting a terrible example by using copyrighted material on your website. The dogs in the image are my dogs - from my rescue. I took the photographs and made the collage myself - I hope you will publish my comment with an apology. I also want people to know that the dogs in the image have either been adopted into safe homes, or still reside at Dogs Hope where they will have a safe and healthy home for life.

Dog racing is a whole new world to me. I expected it to be much slower, quieter, more expensive and less smokey.
I also expected the dogs to touch the ground.
....uoooh, uoooh sweet nothings. Not my doggies but two cute chihuahua crosses who came to visit today. They spend their time grooming each other when they're not racing round playing!
Last Monday Mr Chiots and I stopped by a local orchard to buy some apples to make applesauce & apple butter. It’s a great little orchard that is as organic as you can get and still have apples. They use the bare minimum of treatments on their trees. They also try to keep their business small and do things the way they’ve always done it. It’s such a cute little place, when you drive up you’re greeted by 5 dogs that are very happy to see you.
All the apples are stacked under a huge tree beside their house. The owner explained to us that he could buy a second cooler, but then he’d have higher electric bills and then he would have to work more. So he just stores his apples outside and sells what he can before they all go bad.
They had cats patrolling the crates the crates for mice and I’m sure the dogs kept the deer, opossums and raccoons away.

Someone commented this weekend that Rundle is always smiling. It is true. He is such a happy. social boy and he really does always have a smile on his face. Now if he can only learn that he can be happy with all four feet on the ground as not everyone appreciates a smiling but leaping and bouncing Berner puppy :)

A rule of photography is "dont inundate your viewers with never ending shots of your pets. You may find them cute, but others may not " ...piffle ! This dog is my best friend; Scrappy-doo may be 13 but is so full of life and fun; so very handsome loves me unconditionally and vis versa, even when he stinks, which these days, is mostly all the time :0) Cant be without him. Its a good job he cant speak, he knows all my secrets. The black terrier I think is a Skye terrier, lovely dog with flowing locks, who joined us briefly today. The light today was awful and particularly tricky, so Canines its was xxx
