The scientific gist is that we find them cute because they share characteristics with human babies: large heads (exaggerated by the big ears), large eyes, facial symmetry, and a fluffy/fat appearance. When you tie it to dogs, it brings out the human protection/nurturing instinct, which makes us want to protect our dogs, just as you'd want to protect your cute little offspring from any threats. It also helps us to be willing to put up with one when it eats your shoes, poops on the carpet, etc. :)

I used to take all the pictures so I wouldn't be in them. Now I don't mind at all!

Hey, you got me researching- thanks! From what I read, the Supreme Court is on the verge of issuing a decision re: rights of corporations to not provide birth control as part of their insurance policies. The decision should be interesting, given how conservative the Court is now.
Hobby Lobby run by evangelical Christians is one of the two main challengers.

I don't see any harm if it is elective. They teach the kids worse things.. If not enough kids sign on it - it will get canceled.. hopefully. if not - means kids want to take that class...

Did you know... that corgis' adorably stumpy little legs serve an actual purpose?
Corgis were bred for herding cattle, and they do their job a little differently than other breeds. Some dogs, like collies, herd by running in circles around farm animals to group them up. Other breeds, like shepherds, prefer to stare down their charges and use the power of intimidation. Corgis, on the other hand, nip at the heels of cattle to get them to move in the appropriate direction.
Unsurprisingly, cows don't really like that. Screw with a cow's back legs and they'll try to kick you in the face... unless you're low to the ground like a corgi! Cow hooves go right over a corgi's short body, keeping them safe and letting them herd to their little hearts' content.
Corgi on, my friends!
