Cool Doggie Home Is This Dog House Mansion

Whoa! Look at this great Dog house! I’m lucky I get to live inside … even get to sleep next to Mik, but if I had to be an outside dog, I would love this house!

Maybe Mik will buy it for me as a Summer House … you, know … on those summer nights when all dogs want to stay outside. Just a thought … but think of it when you go to buy your dog a Christmas present.

Available from Target.

When in NY… Do as The NY Dogs Do … Take a Taxi

It’s tough getting around in New York if you’re going from uptown to downtown and while many New Yorkers would only take the subways, many take a taxi.

We had no idea that the dogs in New York thought this was such a great idea until we saw Bixby here riding down the street. Yes … this is the Life! Not sure Mik would pay for my taxi rides … but who knows … maybe if we move to New York!
