With Independence Day almost here, it is time to alert the troops on all the hazards that can harm your pooch. Take it from me, my dog advice comes with age and experience. Also, I love people and want to be with them at all times. When the heavens go boom, this desire for bonding can work against me.

Who loves cooking? Who loves eating? If you answered to either or both, come visit me! BOL Okay all kidding aside, I'm seriously considering entering my PL for this show Master Chef. Why? He's so good at cooking my breakfast and dinner, I know others will like his cooking too. I'm looking at you Gordon Ramsey!

What a week it has been! Today is Take Your Dog to Work Day. This week has been Animal Rights Awareness Week. We had the pawsome Maggie Marton write a three-part series on animal hoarding (check it out next door). She is super talented and a great writer, you'll learn a lot when you read the posts!
This week I got to spend time with my favorite members of Team Cleo while my people went to a party for a senior sweetie who turned 89 years! Hey Auntie Ruthie! Shhh she's doesn't want you to know this is in people years too!
Because I'm all about sharing the love, and because it's Friday, here is a cute photo of my country buddy Bruin getting some serious affection from the darling Francesca. He was at the birthday pawty, but clearly had his own agenda. BOL
The party for Auntie Ruthie was a special one. Dino had the best seat in the house, as you see here he found the spot just beneath the cake table and close enough to Auntie Ruthie so that he got lots of love and "fallen" bits from the barbecue. Smart boy.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?
My idea of perfect happiness is lying on a beautiful beach, with no people in site with a good book
If you could come back as a dog or a cat, which one would it be & why?
I would come back as a cat because they are so naturally graceful and loveable (well dogs are loveable too, but I am all cat lover)
What is your pets most treasured possession?
My pet's most treasured possession is a painting of him done by @Zaziart. It was given to him for his 15th birthday by some very good friends of his on Twitter.
Your proudest achievement so far? My proudest achievement so far? likely watching my children grow up into well rounded, intelligent, articulate human beings.
Who are your heroes in real life?
My hero in real life is my husbands mother. She raised 5 children all on her own- working when she could- and all of those children grew up to go to University and be successful in their own right. when you look at that scenario- it easily could have gone another way. I have the utmost respect for this woman, who is my mother in law. She is a very special woman.
Dear Sir/Madam:
If you let my person bring me to work on June 24, 2011 you have my word that I will be good. This wonderful event is important for both worker and employer because it shows you how trustworthy your employee is. They can show you by the manners of their dog, how they act when not in the office. Isn't that a good thing? Also from a business standpoint, this holiday promotes pet adoptions. I think that is something you as a serious business person can appreciate. Philanthropy is important for all local businesses so that they can be involved in a positive way with their community.

My Father's Day gift this year is to help in the garden. Since PL likes to work outside, doesn't it seem like a good gift to keep him company? I am good at being under foot and in the flower bed, wherever he plans to work on next. Dogs really are telepathic! BOL

San Francisco is such a great city. On my dog walk this week, like many, we got to meet so many nice people. Here is our typical sidewalk encounter between babies, shoppers, folks resting on benches and adventurous dogs. Sometimes the streets do get a little crowded, especially for a big dog like me.
