You look like your dog

You look like your dog. I said this to a woman who lives in my building the other day. She had bleached her hair all white and she looked just like her dog, a Samoyed. I was like, You look like your dog!

She was complimented. (It was meant as a compliment.) Who wouldn't want to look like their dog? Happier, skinnier, healthier, less stressed out … Yeah! Dogs are smart.

So, the next time someone tells you that you look like your dog, just smile and say, "Thank you." It is a grand compliment.

Dogs are expensive. Can you afford a dog?

Before you get a dog, consider what it's going to cost you.  Rescue shelters and societies charge an adoption fee.  That can be a couple hundred bucks.  Then there's shots, food, regular care.

How much do you make per hour?  Are you willing to spend an hour per day exercising and training your dog?

Even a small dog needs attention, care and at least a short walk a couple of times per day.

I'm not saying not to get a dog, but if you do, know that it is a responsibility and honor to own a dog.  But it is a lifestyle choice, almost as significant as deciding to have offspring, and it requires your time as well as your money.

THE HAPPY HOT DOG

Pokey Reaches for the Mustard! 

He's a HOT DOG (with Pickled Relish and anchovy breath).

CLICK HERE FOR AN AWESOME FUNNY DOG VIDEO!!!

It's almost Halloween, which means that you need to find a halloween costume for you and the dog.  Hot about a hot dog with a big jar of mustard?  If that sounds cool, I got the hot dog for you!

I was grooving on this costume because it is a tip of the hat to the Cheezburger Comedy Network.  Would I really have put a hot dog costume on my Chihuahua but for the Cheez?

I bought this little costume from a nice lady in a dog store on SW 23rd in Portland, Oregon.  We were both geeking out on this pretty bad.  We were both like total doggy dress up freaks. Ha Ha

The Crooner from Chihuahua, the flamenco enfuego.  Watch as Pokey rises onces again to belt out a solid rendition of the "Woofy Woof Arrrooo Song."

The toast of Chihuahua, and a hero to his puppies, Pokey lays vocal tracks like a freight train.

The good news is we've trained the dog to sing.  The bad new is that now the Chihuahua wants to sing all the time.

Chihuahua SINGS! Pokey's First Singing Gig!

CHIHUAHUA CHIMES!!!

WATCH AS POKEY does his best Frank Sinatra.  Wowing the audience like Sammy Davis, Jr.  Fake-sloshed like Dean Martin and strumming a banjo like Steve Martin.

Actually, yeah, should we do the Letterman or the Tonight Show?  The choices are out there ... or is it just me?

hahaha

Anyway, click the video above to see the King of Chihuahua, the Don of Song, Pokey!
