Dec 15, 2015

Everyone has that friend who’s obsessed with their pooch. You know, the one that rocks pet/owner matching pajamas, posts a million pup selfies and has at least four different styles of winter jackets for their dogs? Odds are you’re probably going to get a stylized Christmas card of them posing with their pet right about now, but what exactly are you supposed to send in return? For anyone stuck on what to send your doggy mom BFF this holiday, these 13 Christmas cards are a match made in doggy heaven.

I Tried A Dog DNA Test On My New Puppy, And The Results Were So Surprising!

I adopted my schnauzer-poodle mix two years ago, named her Lucy, and went through the painstaking process of house-training a puppy...my shag rugs are still recovering. Just as I was celebrating the end of the puppy phase and Lucy was becoming a dog we absolutely adore, my boyfriend Dan brought home a 4-month-old pup. While skeptical at first — puppy PTSD is real — I was smitten as soon as I met the little guy. He was super sweet and gentle with the most earnest of puppy eyes.

We named him Diego after Dan’s hometown San Diego. He also has the personality of a chill surfer dog compared to my slightly neurotic Lucy (above left, wishing she had her giant dog bed all to herself). His genetic origins, however, were somewhat vague. The adoption shelter suspected he was a German shepherd mix with maybe a smidge Boxer. We were certain of the shepherd part as he was always trying to herd Lucy into a corner — an action often met with fierce objection, but they've since grown to tolerate (and even sort of like) each other. Side note: Diego broke his leg falling down the stairs soon after we brought him home. Highly recommend pet insurance right after adoption!

Over the weeks and months, as he started to grow into his actual size (50 lbs-ish), we guessed maybe he had some pitbull in his heritage. When strangers inevitably asked what he was, Dan would jokingly reply, “American Fence Jumper.”

Meanwhile, my daughter was in dog heaven and kept declaring that when she gets old enough to have her own dog she is getting a Siberian Husky (she’s in the wolf phase of kid animal obsessions).

We used the at-home dog DNA kit, Know Your Pet DNA by Ancestry, to crack Diego's DNA code. The test was pretty simple – easier than a Covid test – and required that we just swab his inner cheek for a saliva sample and mail it off.

We anxiously awaited the results and joked about having a breed reveal party (any excuse to gather, right?). We also wanted to know what we were in for in terms of health and behavior issues. Four weeks later, we received the email that would unlock the mystery.

The test revealed his behavioral traits like willingness to share (yes), separation anxiety (nope), possessiveness (not at all), noise sensitivities (calm), and more, helping us understand him a little better or just confirming what we already knew about him. We even met some of his genetic relatives!

Then of course was the biggest surprise: His breed. Any guesses?

Turns out, Diego is 49 percent Siberian Husky! My daughter was thrilled. His breed mix also included American Pitbull Terrier (26%), American Staffordshire Terrier (19%), and Australian Cattle Dog (6%). He's super social and loves everyone and every dog and is pretty much house-trained...except for the occasional shoe and rug casualty. We're working on it. 😉

This 'Landman' Star Just Spilled On Filming Season 2

The Landman season 1 finale left fans with a shocking ending — and plenty of questions. In addition to wondering if Monty made it out alive and how Tommy and Galino could possible work together, I've got one question that feels more important than anything else: Will there be a season 2 for Landman? This is one new TV show I want to last forever!

Here's everything we know about about Landman season 2, including when they could start filming.

The 'Landman' cast and creator are hopeful for a season 2.

We haven't gotten an official Landman season 2 announcement yet, but star Billy Bob Thornton feels hopeful. "Usually shows that are this successful, they’d do it again," he tells The Hollywood Reporter. "So, I can only imagine that they would, but I don’t know for sure."

He also revealed to Entertainment Weekly that if they're able to film a season 2, "it's going to be sometime around February, March, somewhere in there. I mean, we'll see. It just depends on how the chips may fall, you never know in this business. But if we do it, I think [we’re] going to try to do it around that.”

Creator Christian Wallace would love to bring the story into a second season — especially the ever-evolving relationship between Tommy and Galino. "I would be excited to see Andy and Billy continue acting together because they’re just such an incredible duo — both obviously just great actors and so fun to watch," he tells TV Insider. "As far as Andy’s storyline, what I would hope to see is just what it looks like to have in the cartel a very savvy, smart businessman who happens to be in an illegal business, working alongside Tommy in this legitimate business, and both the rewards and the complications that could bring to both men. I think that would be a fascinating thing to watch play out."

And after Demi Moore's passionate monlogue in the finale (and THAT Golden Globes speech), he promises that, "if the show were to go forward, I think everyone involved would love to see more of Cami and more of Demi."

When is Landman season 2 coming out?

Emerson Miller/Paramount+

We're still waiting to hear whether Landman season 2 will be greenlit by Paramount, but if the series receives the go-ahead, they could start filming in 2025! Other Paramount+ TV shows like 1923 and Yellowstone have had two years between seasons in the past so we could have to wait until the fall of 2026 to see new episodes.

Who's in the Landman cast?

The cast for the first season of Landman includes Billy Bob Thornton as Tommy Norris, Ali Larter as Angela Norris, Michelle Randolph as Ainsley Norris, Jacob Lofland as Cooper Norris, Kayla Wallace as Rebecca Falcone, James Jordan as Dale Bradley, Mark Collie as Walt Joeberg, Paulina Chávez as Ariana, Demi Moore as Cami Miller, Jon Hamm as Monty Miller, Andy Garcia as Gallino, and Michael Peña as Armando.

Stay tuned for the latest news on Landman season 2, and read up on the other January TV shows to watch this month.

Thank Goodness — Kate Middleton Just Announced Her Cancer's In Remission!

The world paused when we discovered The Princess of Wales — Kate Middleston — was battling cancer last year. She wasn't as present for public events throughout the majority of the year, focusing on her healing first and foremost. For those of us who have seen how it affects loved ones, it's such a debilitating disease that takes a toll on a person's overall wellbeing. However, Kate Middleton announced she's officially in remission!

Here's everything we know about Kate Middleton's exciting health update — including how her cancer's officially in remission!

Kate Middleton made her surprise remission announcement on X earlier today. She penned a moving post that shed light on her experience. At the beginning of her post, Kate shared she'd received treatment at the Royal Marsden where she has a "new role as Joint Patron." She also stated they received stellar "care and advice," eventually revealing that "it is a relief to now be in remission."

Kate wrote, "My heartfelt thanks goes to all those who have quietly walked alongside William and me as we have navigated everything. We couldn’t have asked for more."

BBCreported the Princess of Wales visited other patients to speak with them and offer words of encouragement. She revealed cancer's not easy to navigate. "It's really tough... It's such a shock... Everyone said to me, 'please keep a positive mindset, it makes such a difference.'"

She also shed light on how she's doing now that she's in remission. "You think the treatment has finished and you can crack on and get back to normal, but that's still a real challenge," she said while further touching on the "more long-term side effects" of chemotherapy.

For her, "it's hard to get back to normal," but she's willing to try. She said she's "focused on recovery" and is "looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead."

And as for Prince William? A few days ago, he shared a beautiful picture of Kate on Instagram to celebrate her. He wrote, "To the most incredible wife and mother. The strength you’ve shown over the last year has been remarkable. George, Charlotte, Louis and I are so proud of you. Happy Birthday, Catherine. We love you. W."

We hope Kate Middleton continues to recover so she can enjoy a great 2025 with her loved ones!
