      We had to limit ourselves to two Stan slides. Very. Difficult.

      All four Aviary dogs now have slideshow representation. We apologize for the grave puppy oversight.

    I work at Aviary, and I’m not sure if I’ve seen that “Kiki” or “Scout”. Are they real dogs?

      I work at Aviary, and I’m not sure if I’ve seen someone named “Nam.” Is he a real person?

    If the dog of an Observer media power couple makes the list, does that make it a Power Puppy?
