NYC Beagle needs a home :-(

This poor pooch has separation anxiety which means that he barks all day...are you someone who's at home a lot? Or can afford to pay for psychotropic drugs for the little guy? J/K, that's probably not what he needs...well, you never know.

A Day in the Life of Hrairoo!

Gettin' a little tired...of waiting, people!!

Why don't you give me a holler when you get back, huh?

Now you're talking! Let's get some sand in my paws, sun and saltwater in my eyes...always up for a surfin' good time with my Susan!

Yup, God gave me some fine ass curls! I'm not showing off, you pointed them out!

This is precisely how I like the sun to drape over me while I catch some zzzzzs - sun on my belly but not on my face - wrinkles, you know:

Feels sooooo good, feels soooo good...

Of all the methods of transportation I prefer being in the back of the jeep - it's like being in the back of the bus with the cool kids.

I'm ready for my close-up.

Nantucket05.35.jpg

That's funny!

Nantucket05.38.jpg

When I'm not digging and snoozing, I'm hard at work at my job as the guard dog to my companions in the house behind me...Hey, it's not the most exciting thing but I don't make fun of your job.

Thanks to Susan Short for such a sweet addition to the animal kingdom.

Nantucket Cuties

While on Nantucket last month, on the never ending quest for cute pooches, I did indeed spot the cutest pair.

At first I only saw one but he in all his shadowy darkness piqued my interest!

And then there were two:

Meatball and Matzoball!!!

Modern Pooch has fallen in love with Adam Sandler thanks to his website featuring pictures and videos of his pooches!

Here's a tease:

Check out Charlie's Big Day...here's a sampling (that really shouldn't look like his last moments but unfortunately does):

Picture 1.png

And here's Matzoball, moments before he attacks the couch for the sacred tennis ball:

Picture 2.png

Unfortunately there are no direct links to each video so you've got to dig, dig, dig like a dog but it's worth it because they're cute as is our fellow dog lover Adam Sandler!

Wait, was this post too flirty??!! :-)

IS THIS POOCH THE SMARTEST DOG ON EARTH??!!

It's much easier to claim that your pooch is the cutest as opposed to the smartest...but someone has done it!!! Check out the videos showing genius Sheba answering math and geography questions and you be the judge as to whether Sheba is in fact the world's smartest dog!!

Beware of the first CAT to enter modernpooch.com!!

Update: This was too good to be true! It turns out that "Bertocchini is know by many Comedy Central viewers as the guy who built an electric wheelchair for his crippled cat. April fools! The TV
segment featuring the wheelchair-bound feline was fake; Carlo's cat is just fine. 'Comedy Central wanted to do something funny,' says Bertocchini, "and I came up with the Catbot for them. I intended it to come across as an obvious joke, but they did such a good job editing it together that a lot of people thought it was real.'

Check out this video - should this be created for pooches too??

Screenshots to whet your appetite:

Josey the Extremely Loving

Our dog, Josey is extremely loving, but not the brightest.

There is the time she ran up to a cat (probably to sniff it's butt. She does that to our cat on a daily basis.) The cat hissed and tried to claw her. Apparently, Josey ran away with her tail between her legs, yelping. Later that day she attacked our vacuum cleaner in an attempt to demonstrate her bravery.

Also, whenever we pack our suitcases to travel, she sits among them, hoping that we'll mistake her for luggage and take her wherever we are going.

Thanks to Steve Jacobsen for the sweet pic and stories!

Dog beats most in swim from Alcatraz!

The pair live in San Diego and swim 4 miles a week and bodysurf together, Pokonosky said. And Jake always eats scrambled eggs before a big swim

I'm in love with this pooch. What a trooper.
