King Pup's NYC Blog Dog

Brings You All The Dog That's Fit To Blog

NYC dog walkers in Manhattan New York City

Here's the poop. Those wiseguys at King Pup take me for a spin every lunchtime and in return I agree to cast a beady eye over the latest dog related developments and churn out a few words for the perusal of any dog enthusiasts in earshot. It is I feel a quite satisfactory arrangement for the time being and one that I fully intend to maintain until such a time as they've had enough of me, or I become blog-tired and decide to let sleeping blogs lie - whichever comes sooner.

The Last Thing We Need Is More Soap

September 16th, 2008

Dogs the world over received a mortal blow today with the announcement of a new line of - I can hardly bring myself to say it - dog soap.
As if it’s not enough that all of our tireless bestinkification efforts are scuppered once a month when humans bring it upon their sadistic selves to [...]

Chihuahuas Underestimated

September 15th, 2008

There’s a new Chihuahua movie coming out October 3rd and demand for the little scraps is expected to spike as a result. But, says Lynnie Bunten of the Chihuhua club of America, many fans won’t know what they’re getting into.
Chihuahuas suffer from a genetic disorder known as “Napoleon Complex”, which means that they have an [...]

If you’ve ever worried that your dog’s chances of being mugged on the streets of New York were too low, then look no further than these stunning canine crime-magnets. Masterfully crafted by master craftsmen who are masters of their craft, you won’t find a swankier set of dog diamonds for less than $2-million, not even [...]

Woofstock Festival Raises Fears

September 12th, 2008

The two day festival of dog-debauchery at Kenosha, WI, is over…leaving local residents reeling as fears of another era of moral decay among dogs are expressed nationwide.
By all accounts, the event was scheduled to be a civil affair, with owners being advised to keep their dogs leashed at all times. However, like the famed Woodstock [...]

Yet Another Robot Dog Unleashed

September 11th, 2008

There sure are a lot of robots taking the form of dogs these days. Perhaps it’s because robots represent an innate desire in humans to remake themselves in their ideal form, and that ideal form happens to be canine shaped.
Or maybe it’s just because balancing on four legs requires fewer equations than balancing on two. [...]

Dog/Cat Warfare - How To Avoid It

September 10th, 2008

One thing which really gets under my whiskers is the tendency for humans to expend large amounts of effort conducting elaborate “studies” into animal behavior, without it ever occurring to them that all they have to do is ask us what they want to know.
Take this latest study into the relationship between dogs and cats, [...]

Dog Sees Phone, Thinks “Bone”

September 8th, 2008

Nero, a greedy Doberman-Great Dane crossbreed, had a close call recently after he swallowed an entire Nokia cellphone in one of those momentary lapses of reason known as “24/7″ to us dogs.
Not about to let Ozzie the rubber duckie swallowing hound hog the limelight for too long, this precipitant pooch wasted no time in abducting [...]

Robot Dogs Allay Fears Of Dog Draft

September 7th, 2008

Pants of relief were heard all over America today with the news that a dog-draft will not be enforced after all. Rumors had been circulating that the Pentagon was considering the idea of compulsory service for dogs in order to take some of the pressure off of our already overstretched military - the most persistent [...]

Identical Chips Off The Same Dog Block

September 6th, 2008

This is Snuppy, the world’s first cloned dog - soon available at Wal-Mart, Target and participating branches of Bed, Bath and Beyond.
Snuppy was “cloned from adult cells by somatic nuclear cell transfer.” I have no idea what that means, but I should imagine the other dog has to stay very, very still while they’re doing [...]

New iRobot A Washout For Dogs

September 4th, 2008

I was excited as every other dog in America this morning to hear that iRobot has finally released its “Pet Series”, the latest in its line of sloth-enabling dusting droids.
However it quickly became apparent that my excitement was much a-poo about nothing as the new doohickey does not, despite our numerous pawtitions and letters of [...]
