Hello nairalanders and lawyers in the house, i have a situation that needs urgent answers. here it goes: if i boarded a taxi to somewhere and while en route my destination there was traffic jam, so I decide to come down and trek instead, i pay off the taxi guy, as i was about to open the door, the taxi man told me to wait, which i didn't hear, I opened the door and the door hits another car's head light (mind you the taxi wasn't parked properly, just in the middle of a 3 lane traffic) who is to pay for the damages? the owner of the taxi or the passenger ![]() |

5. “Where’s the food? Are you holding out on me?” This last one may seem like the most obvious, a dog wanting food!? You don’t say! However, a study done at the Institute of Zoology at the University of Zurich, proves that our dogs “need for feed” is more sophisticated than we realized.

4. “Pay attention to me!” Let’s be honest… subtlety has never been known as a dog’s strong suit.

3. “You’re the boss.” When a dog rubs his face around another dog’s muzzle, almost like a face massage with a few licks thrown in there, that’s a dog’s way of giving respect to another dog, or showing submission. Sort of like they’re saying, “Hey we’re cool. I’m no threat, pal.”

2 “Im the boss.” Excessive nudging, that mimics prodding, can be a dog expressing dominance over another dog, or even a person.

1. “Hi!” Dog’s are very social animals. And as all dog owner’s know when coming home to their pup, dog’s are big on greetings. Nuzzling is just one of the sweetest ways they like to say, “Good to see ya!” |

There are many reasons why it’s important to know a dog’s age. From the type of diet he should be eating, to what type of behavior to expect, and to determine if he is suffering a health problem or is simply getting older and slowing down. While it’s quite easy to tell a puppy from an adult dog, many fully grown dogs look a lot alike whether they’re 3 or 13. Fortunately, since our pups can’t speak up and tell us what year they were born, there are a few simple ways to make a close estimate of a dog’s age. Examine the Dog’s Teeth Checking your dog’s teeth is the most common (and easiest) way to know how old he is. Normally, dogs develop all of their permanent teeth when they are about 7 months old. 1. If your pooch’s teeth are all clean and white, it is possible that he is about 1 year of age or younger. 2. Once you see a yellowish discoloration at the back of his teeth, your pooch may be about a year or two. 3. When a minimal tartar build-up is present and if some of his teeth wear off, he may already be about 3 to 5. 4. If your dog shows a more extensive amount of wear, as well as tartar presence on his teeth, then he may likely be anywhere between the age of 5 to 10. 5. Heavy tartar accumulation, severe wear, and missing teeth may suggest that your pooch is more than 10 years old, and may likely need older dog vet care. Looking at the Other Indicators There are other signs that may give you an idea how old your dog is, too. These include his behavior as well as his other physical characteristics. 1. Study the dog’s nose. If he has been developing white hair around his snout and whiskers, then he’s likely to be 7 years old and up. 2. Check his eyes. As dogs age, their eyes sometimes become slightly opaque. If the dog’s eyes appear cloudy (or just not bright and clear) chances are, he’s an older pooch. 3. Finally, evaluate the dog’s behavior. Some common signs of old age would include stretching more often, avoiding going upstairs, and a lowered level of interest when it comes to playing. While none of these indicators are an exact science in and of themselves, comparing several factors will help you come to a fairly accurate conclusion about your dog’s age. With a good guess at his age, you’ll be able to give him the proper level of attention and care

11. Most Steps By a Dog Facing Forward Balancing a Glass of Water This particular pooch may also hold the record for “Most Esoteric World Records.” The Australian Shepard, Sweet Pea can pull off the feat backwards, blindfolded, up and down stairs. The dog also apparently has the record for “Fastest 100 Meters With a Can Balanced On a Dog’s Head.” Yup. That’s a thing.

10. Most Expensive So China’s gone a bit dog crazy in recent years. After decades of little to no dog ownership, the country is finding that the pets make not only great companions, but symbols of wealth and status as well. Case in point – Hong Dong (“Big Splash” in English). The Red Tibetan Mastiff was recently sold to a coal baron in Hebei province just outside of Beijing for an astonishing $1.5 Million. Woah.

9. Fastest Balloon Popper What is it that makes popping things so irresistible? (I’m looking at you, anyone who’s encountered bubble wrap ever.) Turns out that fixation may not be limited to our species. Anastasia, a Jack Russell Terrier who is also an accomplished actor and model, holds the current record for fastest canine balloon popper. Her record? 100 balloons in just under 45 seconds. She’s got me beat…

8. Longest Tongue By the looks of things, this pup must be quite familiar with the taste of… the ground. The male Pekenese, Puggy has a tongue so long – 4.5″ – that it perpetually dangles out of his mouth. This is one area where canines have us humans licked. The longest tongue on a person only reaches a mere 3.86″. 1 Like 1 Share

7. Cutest Okay okay, so this isn’t exactly an official record, but how do you resist? Boo, a pomeranian owned by a San Francisco based Facebook executive, is purported to be the cutest dog ever to grace the surface of the earth. Of course, that’s a bit of a dubious claim, but come on, just look at him! Now tell us what you think. Got a cuter pup in mind? Post below in the comments. 1 Like 1 Share

6. Richest. Ever. Billionaire businesswoman Leona Helmsley left an astonishing 12 million dollars to her beloved White Maltese, Trouble, when she passed away in 2007. That’s enough to buy 28,000 Kobe strip steaks (with tip and change to spare) at the Old Holmstead Steakhouse in New York City. A dog’s life indeed!

5. Shortest Miracle Milly, a (what else) Chihuahua owned by Vanesa Semler of Dorado, Puerto Rico. Milly rises to a lilliputian 3.8 inches tall. To put that into perspective, that’s about the length of a credit card. Three of her standing on top of each other would still reach just shy of the height of a barbie doll and you’d need a dozen of her to reach the height of Zeus, the world’s tallest dog ever!

4. Strongest Whippets are relatives of the greyhound – slender, lithe, and graceful. That only makes this next record all the more impressive. Wendy has a condition that literally doubles her muscle – resulting in a seriously intimidating appearance. If the terminator had a dog this surely would be it. Despite her looks, though, Wendy is reportedly as docile and friendly as any other dog. What a relief! 1 Like

3. Fastest… on a scooter This relatively new record was set by a 3 year old French Sheepdog named Norman in 2012 for “Fastest 30 meters on a scooter by a dog.” The pace? A a blazing 3.4 miles per hour. Apparently Norman can also ride a skateboard and bicycle as well. Personally, I wanna see Segway added to the repertoire.

2)Longest ears: Do your ears hang low? Not like this pooch. Harbor, a black-and-tan Coonhound living in Colorado has ears so big he used to trip over them as a pup! With one coming in at 12.25” and the other at 13.75”, his ears put together are the size of a large bicycle wheel!

1)Highest jump: In 2006, a Holly Grey named Cinderella May (rhyme intentional?) lept an astonishing 5’ 8” into the air. That’s high enough to jump over a refrigerator![img][/img]
