Librarian's Index to the Internet CA A non-profit organization sponsored by the Library of California, The Librarian's Index to the Internet (LII.org) provides an incredibly rich resource for researching just about any subject in depth. The advanced searching capability is rich, yet easy to use and can drill down to exactly was you're looking for. Don't miss subscribing to What's New This Week so you can find out about new sites as they are added (too bad they don't have RSS -- that would be nifty: this would be a great addition to Syndic8.com).

A search on "dog, canine, K-9, veterinary"  came up with 76 sites, including VetInfo, Woof - Training and Understanding Your Dog, Digital Dog (a site devoted to dog breeds, so you can know what to look for in your choice of breed) and Dog News:  weird, inspiring dog tales (a recent addition). If you know of a resource that you'd like to see included, be sure to make a suggestion when you visit and be sure to suggest your weblog if you focus on  a subject indepth.

The RSS configurator  From the "Learning and Teaching Network" comes a very handy tool to preview different styles of RSS output to html right on the web and it's really easy to use. I prefer Dave Winer's macro for RSS output (and his explanation was really good too), but this is really convenient and foolproof (if you're like me, you need fool proof) [syndic8.com]
