   Walter Penny (Colorado Bed Bug k9) just acquired "Macaroni."

   Since bed bug k9s are still to make it to many areas, I like to make sure we record them somehow.

   Makes me think of yet another project I would love to have the time to spend on, namely using the http://www.bedbugspecialists.com domain to link through to worldwide resources from true specialists in the field.

   I can see a map with paw prints indicating bed bug dog houses and magnification loops for treatment specialists. Joking aside if there is anyone out there with the time to code such a thing please let me know. I registered a lot of the domains many years ago because information projects are also needed and its better to have the names available to people than snaffled up where there is no public access potential (last count it was over 100 domains).

   Thanks for this post! (me being a CO resident) Finally.

   On the one hand, it's great that we finally have a dog; on the other, it's depressing that we need one.

   Huh. The article thinks it's cute the nice doggie is eagerly trying to sniff *dead* bedbugs. Is he supposed to be doing that? I mean, isn't he supposed to ignore dead ones?

   Here is a video clip of Walter & Mac finding a vial of live bed bugs for a local TV station.
