San Dimas Doggie Park

This is the best dog park--ever! It's only for small dogs and has grass and trees.  Here I am in the picture with Molly, my cousin, and Spanky, a white freckle faced chichuahua mix.

Dog-apalooza in Madison Square Park: Sept 20

Mark your calendars, folks. This Saturday, September 20 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Madison Square Park is DOG-APALOOZA DAY! (Otherwise known as AKC Responsible Dog Ownership Day.)

There's going to be lots of free stuff, all sorts of different kinds of dogs, and hopefully, lots of yummy treats!!!!! Mama's all excited about it. She's making me take a bath on Friday night, so I'll be nice and clean when we go.

Click here for more info about it.

Be there or be square!

Doggie Dress-Up (Part 3)

I'm speechless...

Doggie Dress-Up (Part 2)

The humiliation continues...

Doggie Dress-Up (Part 1)

Since Halloween is coming up next month, you can be sure to see a lot of silliness.  Just look at these poor canines!  

(And you wonder why dogs bite people!)  

Mama is saying she wants to dress me up as Zorro for Halloween. We'll see about that!

Kickin' It in Little Italy

They are having a big party in Little Italy called Figli di San Gennnaro, which means "Festival of San Gennaro." It is a religious festival and it lasts this year from September 11 to 21.  You can read more about it here.

There's lots of food (especially on the ground) and a big parade where they carry a statue of a little man wearing a cape (the saint) to a church. 

"Yo, pasain!" Where's my parade?

Shih-tzu in Pigtails

There are some fancy dogs in New York City!

Dip in the Pool

I had the pool all to myself at the Leroy Street dog run on the Hudson River.

Whoa!  Time to jump out!  It's getting crowded!

Who Let the Pigs Out?

Oink! Oink!

Picture of My Lunch

On the menu today:

Chicken shish kebab and basmati rice with a bit of kibble. It's from Istanbul Grill on 14th Street. Dee-licious.

Ziggy is My Friend

Ziggy goes to my Saturday play group. He's a really cool dude and kinda just happy-go-lucky.   

I like to kid around and say, "Hey Zigs!  The Zig Man!  Zigster!  Ziggy Wiggy!"  Then I'll fall down on the floor laughing while he just scratches his head. 

See, there he is right there (below) having a good scratch at his ear.

I like to wrestle with Ziggy, but he's already bigger than me, and he's only 9 months old!  He's a Bichon/Shih Tzu mix, so he's a big puffball.

 

Happy Labor Day in Brooklyn

What did you do for Labor Day?

I walked across the Brooklyn Bridge and ate pizza at Grimaldis and had strawberry ice cream at the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory.   

I'm glad I'm not lactose intolerant and prone to heat stroke. 

It was fun, hot and sunny.
