Apparently today is International Dog Day. This means we have an excuse to talk about dogs.

My dog, Cosmo

So… let’s hear about references to dogs in philosophical works, philosophical examples featuring dogs, philosophical work on dogs, and so on.

Also, for-a-limited-time-only-please-don’t-make-me-regret-this, I’ve enabled the photo feature on the comments here, so if you are a teacher or student of philosophy who has a dog (or dogs), you can share a picture and tell us all about them, if you’re so inclined.

The day was initiated to support the adoption of dogs. If you’re in the U.S., you can learn about shelters, rescue groups and other animal welfare organizations near you here.

Happy International Dog day, everyone!
