Man of Adventure

Nothing can stop me when there are pine cones around. NOTHING. THROW ME A CONE! Um, thanks. CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE CONE Look.  I let you clean my toes.  I wore the potentially-humiliating Flashdance-style sweatshirt.  I’m wearing the damn booties.  GIVE ME MY CONE I do love this snow.  Even though there…

Stop and Smell Everything

Finally… a slogan that I can fully get behind. We should all take a few moments out of our busy day, every day, during every walkie, to stop and smell EVERYTHING.  This has always been my philosophy.  There is no better way to get to know your surroundings, who’s doing what (and where), than this.…

Chilling at Petee’s Lounge

So… this heatwave thing stinks  This humidity thing stinks.  It’s way too hot here in Philadelphia.  If only there were a place that a boy could get a tasty cold drink… Hey look – it’s PETEE’S LOUNGE! Petee is a bulldog.  It’s too damn hot outside for Petee.  So his dads thought it might be…

Hangin’ 20

That’s right, full-on, four-footed surfin’! Yes, this is the window of my favorite store – Just Dogs Gourmet bakery.  They always have fantastic window displays – this one works in some fab flowers from the Philadelphia Flower Show – along with a dog who is catching some big waves. Doggles too, of course.  And check…

Jaunty Shadow Dancer

Mama is obsessed with my shadow.  Obsessed, I tell ya! When we happen to be out at just the right time, with just the right light, she goes nuts.  Picture upon picture upon picture.  She’s a little bit crazy (perhaps you already noticed that), but I do indulge her from time to time.  Today is…

You Know It’s Cold Outside…

When even the mighty Airedale WANTS to wear his sweatshirt. When posing for majestic photos, even a large, juicy stick cannot contain one’s attention. When the penguin statues begin to appear. That’s right, I said PENGUIN STATUES And when it gets so cold that photos of my adorable butt look like paintings.  Welcome (finally) winter!…

Here We Go a Strudel-ing

The Christmas Village has moved from City Hall over to Love Park – and we almost missed it! There’s a big Xmas tree, the giant macaroni-and-cheese noodle, and lots of German specialties.  The tree kind of freaked me out. To get into the proper spirit I tried to yodel – which I could tell was…

Water-y Goodness

Damn, it’s hot here.  This humidity thing is kicking my butt.  This summer is my first real, full summer full ‘o humidity and honestly, I don’t like it much.  Never thought I’d say it, but thank goodness for my aire conditioner, my own personal fans in each room, and a shady, cool spot in the…

C is for Cookie

Everyone enjoys a snack.  These birds and pigeons are partaking of a large loaf (kind of lazy way to feed the pigeons, my human friends, just hurling a loaf of bread into a park).  And they were indeed enjoying it until I came along. Not very tasty.  But I know where to find something better.…
