a thing in 63 photos in 2013 dogs showing 2013 only · show all years ...managed to finally lick her wiggly toenail loose! Ewwww! (It grew back) All three! On the very first morning of 2014, Piper & Edie helped keep Ellen cozy while she waited for... Mer came over to my place a little after 9pm, and we walked with the dogs over to the West Village... Biggy and Maddy also got to spend some quality time together. Smash them all together! Dog pile! The Hosts with the most....dogs! Hahah. ...and we tried to get Edie to pose with her new, creepy friends. ...with my terrifying pack of Halloween Hell Hounds! I brought home a new bag of treats from the pet shop and Maddy was very interested! Turns out she was really into... Dachshund infestation! While walking through the park, Maddy got her head stuck in this box while trying to catch a squirrel! Nap time with Teddy! Great Dane puppy! On the walk home, Maddy ran into her doppleganger (dapple-ganger?), Esther! You guys look like ME! They are always so excited to see each other! Squad. Bunk buddies. Sleeping between feet! Took these ladies for their evening stroll. ...put this little dingle in the car... ...snuggled up. Got home to find these guys all... In addition to the big lawn they also have... Husky chilling in the dog park like. Walking the ladies. Woke up Tuesday morning to find these two rough-housing on the couch and making weird goose-honking noises at each other. ...and then she pulls her head out and attacks Edie! Repeat times one-hundred. Maddy likes to play this game where she buries her head under a blanket (she can't see anything so she thinks she's invisible?)... Finished up early enough to take a late-afternoon nap with these two bozos. Bookends. I tried to make Edie green! Later that evening, Edie came over to stay for a bit. Follows the afternoon sun as it moves across the couch. Sun is slowly melting my tiny dog brain. One of my favorite things is watching Maddy settle down into a sunbeam, all squinty-eyed... ...and then watch her try her hardest to stay awake. What wants? Is sleepy! Huh? Maddy lazily half-burroughed under blanket after her morning walk. Where is the face? Yes, hello. Who lives here? Pigeon fly away. Maddy has a very specific dirty look she gives me when she's ready for a walk. Spotted this lesson in advanced dogwalking (six!) from the window of a client of mine on Bond Street. ...with this squidgel. What a hunch-whistle! ...."Ok, I'm ready for you to pet me now." ...and then fall onto her side. This is her way of saying... So hard to know it and not smash it with love. Awww, this little cuddle bear. When you walk into a room and pay attention to Maddy, she'll look at you... ..a little speckled wiener dog who wasn't entirely sure if she was ready to forgive me for leaving. "IS BACK NOW?" Made another dog friend. Aw, beardy! ...and took turns hugging this GIANT PUPPY at the dive shop dock. Dog friend number two. Nice to sit on the dock with these guys and feel at home on the earth. Two of the local beach dogs followed me out onto the dock and kept me company. After checking out of my terrible hotel, I tried one last time to make friends with this chocolate dachshund, but she didn't want to have ANYTHING to do with me. So barky! ...that loves to drink Coca-cola! (Don't worry, he only gave him a sip). The bartender (owner?) there has a little white dog... ...and suddenly, I had an entourage! (They were both low and wienery looking and made me think of Maddy). Back on land, I made friends with these two roaming beach dogs! A few kind words and a scratch behind the ears... Ran into Maddy & Edie's winer twins at the park Monday afternoon.
