Dogged pursuit

Happy Friday! The dog days of summer are nearly upon us (in the Northern Hemisphere, anyway)! What better way to prepare than by searching today's possible Blossom words for a six-letter and a seven-letter entry that have to do with canines? As usual, keep in mind these are Toy Group-sized, so they might not be ideal for your 12 "Best in Show" words. Think you've got it figured out? Reply to this email and let us know!
