Hypoallergenic dog claims don’t stand up
Author:Doug
Hypoallergenic dogs don’t actually produce fewer allergy-provoking proteins than other dogs, say researchers who put the claims to the test.
Researchers in Detroit analyzed dust samples collected from 173 homes one month after a newborn baby was brought home to check allergen levels from hypoallergenic dogs and other breeds.The Obamas were offered one of a Wisconsin breeder’s Australian Labradoodle puppies for their daughter with allergies.

Specifically, 60 dog breeds were involved, 11 of them considered hypoallergenic. Researchers found no significant differences in allergen levels in homes where either hypoallergenic dogs or non-hypoallergenic resided, they said in the July online issue of the American Journal of Rhinology and Allergy.
“We found no scientific basis to the claim hypoallergenic dogs have less allergen,” Christine Cole Johnson, chair of Henry Ford’s Department of Public Health Sciences and senior author of the study, said in a release.
“Based on previous allergy studies conducted here at Henry Ford, exposure to a dog early in life provides protection against dog allergy development. But the idea that you can buy a certain breed of dog and think it will cause less allergy problems for a person already dog-allergic is not borne out by our study.”

Let's Share our Google+ names to add each other /r/furry! (Private and Public methods)
Just for the heck of it, because many enjoy meeting new friends and because G+ is new and everyone else is doing it.
There's two different ways you can do it:
Public: You just need to publish a comment with your nick/name and an optional description of yourself or the people you want to meet.
Invitation: Publish a comment with a description of the type of furry you'd like to meet and the type of furry you are. Then wait for someone to send you a PM and ask for permission.

Using Google Plus? You may want to change your Profile Name
Furries – watch your names – if you have names with words like “the” as part of the title, Google may suspend your account till you change your name and verify you are indeed a real person – It just happened to The Hypnotic Beast to Charem the Charmeleon (Caleb Scott) . If your account is suspended, you will have to change your name and go through a telephone verification process and then wait till Google reviews your account. This will include your gmail and youtube account if they are all under the same Google Profile.

BDBC Meeting 012: ‘And the Moon Outside’ by cubetriangle

The night has its special properties, of course. For as long as literature has been written the darkness has been a time for plotting schemes and raising trouble. If you’re a werewolf, and the moon is full, this is especially true. cubetriangle has for us a story with undertones of alienation and revolution, and it all takes place under the subtle…

Zookeeper Film Verdict
07/14/2011
By: CraftyAndy
Zookeeper I’m sure it would be easy to talk about how stoopid this movie is so I won’t go there. It’s better then Dylan Dog and Green Lantern. I’d say it’s on par with Transformers 3. I agree with Roger Ebert, “Look, a great movie this is not. A pleasant summer entertainment it is.”

Fuzzy Logic Podcast Episode 11 – It Begins
Author: admin
We’re up to five e-mails this time, almost enough for two for each person – it’s a landmark we’re really looking forward to meeting! This time, we’ve managed to keep the episode down to just a little over an hour, too!
For now, we’ve got questions about anger management, how to find people who are into the things you’re into, and stories about how several people got into the fandom! There are peals of laughter as Istanbul busts out his horrible Indian accent, and there’s discussion about the new anti-streaming law, among other such hilarity!
Also, since we neglected to link it last time like we said we would, click here for the My Little Pony horror game. Just don’t play it in a darkened room!
Next episode is about goals! What do you want to do with your life? Do you know yet? Do you need some advice getting there, or do you just want to discuss your plans for the future? Write in and let us know, and don’t forget, we’re always here to answer your non-topical questions as well!

Further charges laid in Krypto1701 animal abuse case
Author: Higgs Raccoon
Two more counts of animal cruelty have been added to the charges already faced by Peter Bower, known in the furry fandom as Krypto1701.
In May, Bower was charged with two counts of animal cruelty after authorities discovered that he had had sexual relations with his three-year-old shepherd-mix dog, Aurora. New evidence suggests sexual activity with a previous pet, a German shepherd named Maggie.
While examining items confiscated from Bower’s apartment, Richland County (Ohio) Dog Warden Dave Jordan discovered “diary letters” to the 11-year-old pet. One dated April 4, 2010 detailed a physical encounter with the animal. Maggie and another (male) dog were euthanised five days later. Maggie was reportedly suffering from pyrometra, an infection of the uterus, which Jordan said “could have been caused by the use of lubricants”.
Police are still investigating Bower’s online activities, and a pre-trial hearing is scheduled for 9 a.m. on Monday in Shelby Municipal Court.
Although thirty states in the U.S. have laws prohibiting bestiality, Ohio is not one of them. The Bower case has prompted Ohio state representatives to draft legislation that would explicitly outlaw such acts.
