You should be at BARCStoberfest.

That’s where we are — at Patterson Park, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Get your dog and go.

And don’t forget to stop by the ohmidog! booth — for free goodies (courtesy of Lucky Lucy’s Canine Cafe, K-9 Kraving Dog Food and Love of Dog Bakery), Ace’s (at your own risk) Kissing Booth and Dog Breath Emporium, exciting carnival-like games (except you don’t get ripped off), and a chance to get your dog in ohimdog!, both literally and online.

All money raised by the ohmidog! booth is going to the Franky Fund for sick and injured animals at BARCS (Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter).

An orphan monkey at a Chinese Zoo was being bullied by bigger primates, so zookeepers gave the little fellow his own personal guard dog.

Keepers at Jiaozuo City Zoo said the monkey was always being picked on, and that they had intervened to save his life several times.

“So we put a dog in the monkey cage, hoping he can protect the orphan,” a zoo spokesman told the China News Network.

The zoo said the dog, Sai Hu, does his job well.

“Whenever the baby monkey gets bullied, he dashes up and drives the others away. And the baby monkey is also very smart. Each time he smells danger he runs to jump on the dog’s back and holds on tight.

“The alpha male monkey has been really unhappy since we sent in Sai Hu. He tried to organize several ambushes on the little monkey, but they all failed because of the dog,” added the spokesman.
