Not So Delicate

Funny thing, Jenna walking Makai! Or perhaps the Golden Retriever walking Jenna?! I was browsing through the photos on our share drive and noticed these three in particular. I don’t remember much from that day except for the audible groans and public spectacle put on by poor Jenna (attempting) to walk the golden pup.

She seems to be having no problems right? The docile Golden Retriever walks alongside his trusted friend, fully under her control! HaHa…To be fair to Jenna, Makai is still shy of a year old thus a bundle of puppy energy. I’m glad my dog only weighs 3lbs! If I never blog again it’s because Jenna saw this post! :-/

NYP: “Natalie Port-A-Potty”

There’s no difference between a fire hydrant & a Queen (a Star Wars Queen that is) to this dog. The rambunctious little pup decided to relieve himself on Natalie Portman last week at a downtown dog run in NYC. Oops! Time to visit the dry cleaners huh Natalie?! The New York Post reports she took it all in good fun…I would definitely be pissed (maybe)!

Random Ruffs: Doggy Dental Care


Last week on an inspirational whim I decided to invest on some teeth cleaning tools for my dog, Kylie. Little did I know this seemingly easy task would erupt into an all out war which would end in me lying breathless across the living room floor. Here I thought I was doing a good thing for my baby, promoting good dental hygiene… she, on the other hand, acted as though I was committing bloody murder. I purchased one of those kits with a toothbrush, tooth paste, and a slip cover mini brush that goes over your finger for those “hard to reach places” in your dogs mouth. The instructions were seriously twice the length of this blog title; some thing to the effect of:

1. Remove Products from package

2. Let dog taste small sampling of toothpaste then squeeze onto brush

3. Gently brush dogs teeth and gum line (for hard to reach places use finger cover)

Simple, yes? NO!

I got the first two steps down thinking I was pro. But step 3 didn’t come so easy. The minute I so much as attempted to insert the brush into Kylie’s mouth she made noises that reminded me of the time I tried to clip her nails, (another glamorous event that lead me to forking out the $11 bucks to the vet to do it for me….) noises much like a cat in heat or a really high pitched whining sound. After a few attempts Kylie made an escape for the other side of the room huddled in her bed.

Bekko does Mt. Laguna

Bekko (my teenage Miniature Pinscher) has been to every park and beach in the city and told me he’s pretty bored with it all. I decided to challenge the little guy & take him Hiking last weekend!! Since we live in San Diego there was no better place than Mt. Laguna! (We hiked the highest point in San Diego County)

I was a bit nervous Bekko would go crazy out in the wild and freak out, as Min Pins usually do. I was so happy to see he absolutely loved hiking and was such a good doggy. I had him on a retractable leash, so he wondered a few feet ahead, sniffing everything. He jumped over rocks, climbed in logs, played with a few pine cones, and fought off a mountain lion for me!

He even begrudgingly posed for a few photos. All in All our hike was a success and I could tell the little guy had a great time! He’s only a foot tall, but was such a trooper on the trail, some of which was pretty steep. I’m motivated now to maybe take him scuba diving or bun-jee jumping next!

Calling all Dogs…San Diego wants to “develop” hot spot Fiesta Island

fi

Fiesta Island is San Diego’s largest leash-free gathering spot and now there are ruffs all around San Diego that the city is planning to develop it. Is this a concern for your pup, absolutely? The city is currently working on a plan to “develop” the current leash-free area located on the south side of the island. The goal is to divide it up into three sections and put fencing, roads and parking lots up. This would mean that the large area that was once free grounds for dogs to run leash-free, hike and play with their two-legged and four legged friends could be in jeopardy.

If the city cannot offer a large recreation spot for our furry friends to run free then where are they suppose to go. Currently there are 700,000 dogs calling San Diego home and they need options. We are taxpayers and dog lovers and should have the opportunity to have a recreation area such as Fiesta Island. A place to hang out at and not worry about our dogs not having adequate space to play. The city should use the money on other things and leave Fiesta Island alone…

If you would like more information, go to fidosd.org.

Anyone in Gainesville need Force?


You know you’ve made it big when people are re-selling your products on Craigslist. A nifty individual apparently bought too much Force & needs to offload the extras. He’s put it up for sale on Craigslist in Gainesville, somewhere if your interested?! He says the food is “really awesome” & in “great shape”!! I’ve seen everything being sold on Craigslist, but never dog food…

Tough guy & his dog bring me back to earth

I was on my way to work this morning, trottin’ along with my 3lb dog in tow. Usually everyone stares and murmurs “how cute” and I feel “cool” because I have this cute little dog everyone likes. Well, this morning I was waiting at a crosswalk and another young guy comes up behind me with his dog. Only difference is his dog is 75lbs and poops the size of my dog. There he & his dog are, standing proud, all big and tough. Here I am with my skinny jeans, messenger bag, and girly dog. :( It felt like an eternity waiting for that da*n walk sign to flash. I just wanted to run away and hide under a rocker never to be seen again!!

I suddenly felt self-conscious with my little dog, in some ways less of a man than Mr. Tough guy and his “killer” standing next to me!! :( Of course I love my puppy but some days I wish he was bigger, leaner, and meaner!! Is that bad?!
