Doggy Moon Shine
Looking for a great dog grooming option in Los Angeles / Silver Lake? Urban Pet introduces their new full service grooming and self-service wash salon, with each pod being equipped with top of the line tubs, dryers, brushes and shampoos. Each pod also is inspired by great artists; Van Gogh, Picasso, etc.
Self service washes start at $20 – a whole lot less than I pay my groomer!
Check out more details on Moon Shine’s web site.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
The Fox and the Hound
Isn’t this a great picture? It is from the Canton Repository, accompanying a story about a fox hunt in Central Ohio, where the goal is only to chase the foxes, not to kill them. As one of the girls involved in the hunt stated, “We want them there for the next week!”

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

So, apparently I lied when I said my dogs only got their regular kibble. Just got a call from the dog-sitter that she accidentally left the pantry door ajar. My dogs had Pop-Tarts and popcorn overnight and are now paying the price. Yuck! Kind of glad I’m not home!
Until next time,
Good day, and Good dog!
Saturday Survey: Your Dog’s Thanksgiving Meal
Did your dog enjoy Thanksgiving as much as you did? We had one commenter say her dog had the “unpleasant” task of saving hot water and energy by cleaning the plates, which made me wonder what your dogs will be eating. My dogs got left at home while we went to Grandma’s for the weekend, so they only had their normal kibble.
