"The Brussels Griffon is a descendant of the German
Affenpinscher and a 17th century well-defined type of street
dog, very common to Belgian peasants and well known as the
"Griffons D'Ecurie" or the Stable Griffon. These rough and
bearded, shaggy coated, good natured dogs, killed rats in the
stables. The infusion of Affenpinscher blood was thought to
refine this ratting ability. The ensuing dogs were later bred
with the smooth coated Pug resulting in a breed which to this
day, produces two coats, the smooth and the rough coat."

"The report's authors, Darrell Rigby and Dan Haas, picked Best Buy (Research) in consumer electronics; Walgreen (Research) in pharmacy products; Wal-Mart's arch-rival Target (Research) in the discount arena; PetsMart (Research) in pet supplies; and privately held regional chains HEB and Publix among grocers.
The CEO of one successful Wal-Mart competitor was quoted in the report as describing his strategy as the following: "It's like the two outdoorsmen who wake to find a raging bear at their campsite," he said. "One camper slowly stands and backs away; the other starts to lace up his sneakers. 'You can't outrun the bear!' whispers the first."

"It's hard for young children to resist the appeal of a bunny.
They have soft, soft hair, and adorable features - all it takes is a twitch of the nose and wiggle of the ears to fall in love.
Melissa Lajter of La Crosse knows the lure. She had rabbits when she was growing up, but sadly, five of them died by the time she reached the age of 10. Their backs were either broken (they have fragile backbones and rarely survive being dropped) or they didn't survive the winter and loneliness in their outdoor homes, she said.
Lajter and her husband, Jason, have two house bunnies now: Lenci, a 2-year-old Jersey Wooly; and Iszy, a 7-month-old Lionhead."
