A while back, we posted about the incredible Amigo Dog Wheelchair concept designed by Nir Shalom. Not surprisingly, it was one of our most popular posts and generated a lot of great conversation about pets with disabilities who still live full, active, and — most importantly — happy lives! That’s why we were ecstatic to come across this photo series of Disabled Pets by Carli Davidson.
There’s a great little article in the current issue of The Bark about William Steig (1907-2003), award-winning cartoonist, illustrator and sculptor. If his cartoons look familiar to you, it might be because his drawings graced the pages (and cover) of The New Yorker over 1600 times. Steig, who just so happened to be the creator of the character Shrek, often depicted dogs in his illustrations — dogs who often seemed perhaps a bit too human for their own good.
Hey! An entire year has passed… how did that happen? Since this is the first full year of Dog Milk, let’s take a look back at the best posts of 2011 — from dog house planters to our exclusive interview with the world’s cutest dog.

Her work was seen as so brilliant that Lady Gaga commissioned a hair hat of her very own, making artist Nagi Noda a hair sculpting sensation. Our Dog Milk favorites? The hair hat dogs of course!
