Tanner McAuley, the owner of Puptopia, was featured on the season premier episode of Doggie Moms. It’s a clip highlighting pet first aid and shows students being certified in Pet First Aid and CPR by Red Cross. Tanner is the one who says “The pace of New York is very frenetic.”  Unfortunately, he wishes that he looked a bit more polished and didn’t wear a hat that day . . . the class was very early in the morning. Lol.

The clip starts at 17:11 and can be viewed here:  Puptopia Owner, Tanner McAuley, featured on Doggie Moms.

On Sunday, December 11, I attended the Blessing of the Animals, and I must admit it was quite fun. It was probably one of the most unique animal events I have attended. There was a Rabbi and a Minister blessing all kinds of animals, including: birds, turtles, goats, insects, and of course lots and lots of dogs. It was quite the spectacle! It’s not too often that you witness barking dogs walking down the aisles of a church while the accomplished Brooklyn Youth Chorus’ angelic voices are floating through the cathedral.  You can see a picture of me above and pictures of the Minister and Rabbi below.  Here is the link for the event:  http://www.aspca.org/Aspca-nyc/blessing-of-the-animals.aspx

The following portraits are hysterical, and in some cases, almost frightening. Lol!  Photographer, Carli Davidson, shot a variety of dogs shaking water off themselves.  The result is a gallery of hilarious photos of contorting dog faces and flying floppy ears.
