		<title>A Statue of your Dog is a Little Creepy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My boyfriend&#8217;s dog has been known to bark at inanimate objects.

		<title>Who&#8217;s her daddy?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a little curious in the past what breeds make up my spunky, personable long bodied chihuahua like dog.
