These dogs definitely won’t come when they’re called. And roll over? Don’t even ask. Adapted from the New York Times bestselling book Bad Dog, which now has over 437,000 copies in print, BAD DOG CALENDAR is a truly funny year of badly dressed, badly groomed, and badly behaved canines. Obedience school dropouts all, these dogs may be man’s best friends, but they sure don’t try very hard. Meet cross-dressing nun Baxter, who warns, “You’d be in for a big surprise if you looked under my habit.” Choca, the shar-pei and reluctant cowboy. A quartet of puppies sleeping it off after one too many drinking games. Plus My Favorite Smells and Bad Dog Early Warning Signs (#94: Dog treats owner’s hairpiece badly).

Pros and Cons,
This review is from: Bad Dog Page-A-Day Calendar 2011 (Calendar)
I've been getting these calendars every year for my mom as a holiday gift, who like me, LOVES dogs. She saves the pages she's torn off during the week so when I come to visit, she shares them with me. Most of the photos are adorable and show just how far a dog will go to please it's owner. My parents and I have many laughs, "oohs" and "awes" looking at these pictures. But sometimes, the captions go a bit too far with inappropriate sexual innuendoes. We try to overlook those and just enjoy the photos instead. Also, the binding glue does not allow for a clean, neat removal of the pages, if you wish to keep any. They seem to tear off very uneven and destroys the top of the page, no matter how far into the calendar you go.
We have decided to get the 2011 version so the cons do not outweigh the pros in whether or not we want to enjoy another year of the Bad Dog Page-A-Day Calendar. I would not really recommend this calendar for young children (who are able to read).

Not "bad" so much as silly, but adorable nonetheless!,
By Love~2B~Raw (Midwest, IN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bad Dog Page-A-Day Calendar 2007 (Page-A-Day Calendars) (Calendar)
Anything with animals being silly is likely to win a place in my heart. The photos are great, the captions are too. I wish the photos were in color (like on the front of the box)... but since these are like "mug shots" for these "bad" pooches, I guess creators thought the black & white to be most appropriate.
