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.

Fur Richer, Fur Poorer

June 28th, 2009

Old folks love a wedding. And I suppose that once you reach a certain age it doesn’t really matter who’s getting married just so long as you’re invited.
All of which explains this frankly bizarre spectacle at The Riverside Care Center in McKeesport last week.
As I’ve already explained, there’s not much point in dogs getting married. [...]

Dr. Strangedog

June 23rd, 2009

Some dogs don’t even need a mirror to take issue with themselves. I’ve heard of bone envy but this is ridiculous. Or is there a more sinister explanation? I’m reminded of Peter Sellers’ role in the seminal movie Dr. Strangelove, in which he played an ex-Nazi physicist acting as scientific adviser in the President’s war [...]

Hang Eight (Claws That Is)

June 22nd, 2009

Note to taxonomists: Californian dogs do not belong to the same species as New York Dogs. To me, getting wet means one thing and one thing only - a $100 grooming bill. If you should see me 30 yards off the coast of Imperial Beach standing knees-a-tremble on a slippery surfboard waiting for an ominous [...]

World Holds Breath as Dog Spotted on Roof

February 12th, 2009

As reported by the Associated Press yesterday, the U.N. has called an emergency meeting after a dog was spotted sitting happily on a roof in North Dakota, in what must surely have been one of the slowest days for news in world history.
People across the world stopped what they were doing in stunned amazement as [...]

Holy Dog Flaps

December 2nd, 2008

I haven’t been this excited since I saw a cloud in the shape of Lassie.
Obviously bored of appearing on towels, mirrors, shrouds, pancakes, tortilla chips, baby’s ultrasound scans, bathroom ceilings and piles of grass cuttings all over the world, the image of Jesus has decided to try something new, by appearing on Roger Bowman’s dog [...]

All Dressed Up and Nothing to Hump

November 8th, 2008

I’m referring to the one on the right. Perkins, a randy Jack Russell terrier from Shrewsbury, England, is driving his owners crazy with his incessant howling — so they posted his picture in the local lonely hearts column in the vein hope of finding a dog owner crazy enough to be searching the local lonely [...]

Puppies Asked To Mind Their Own Business

September 17th, 2008

The O’Sullivan puppies of Lanford, IL came under fire again Tuesday as neighbor Ralph Peterson asked them once more to mind their own damn business.
The meddlesome litter, who are rarely seen attending to their own affairs, peered over Peterson’s fence for the last damn time as he attended to various chores in his yard - [...]

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 [...]

An Easy Mistake To Make

September 1st, 2008

Shillelaghs were on standby in Belfast, Ireland yesterday as members of the public mistook a stray dog for a lion and panicked. Police have not yet said whether Guinness was a factor, but it is believed to be one line of inquiry.
I for one have no trouble believing that such a mistake could be made [...]

“I Poo”

August 23rd, 2008

For the most part, dogs don’t get married. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that we have anything against the institution itself - it’s just that there’s about as much point in two dogs getting married as there is in taping two pebbles together.
For humans, love is a temporary insanity that’s curable by marriage, or [...]
