Hollywood Coyote

Photo of urban coyote near the Hollywood Sign

The very adaptable coyote is found throughout North America and often in close proximity to people — very close.  Like bears they scavenge where humans have garbage and pet food outside for them to take advantage of but unlike bears they hide well and mostly go unnoticed.  That is, unless the food they are scavenging …

Photo of Fred, the Littlest Pirate

Here is our friend, Fred, decked out to help us hand out Halloween candy.  It was a safe and delightful holiday at Love to Groom in Glendale, CA with lots of cute costumed kids coming by the shop.  Some even had their dogs in tow.  But Fred was the cutest and had some healthy treats …

I Smell Whale Poop

Dogs at Work - Tucker finds an Orca

You would think it would be a big and smelly mess but surprisingly killer whale excrement is difficult for research scientists in Washington State to locate and collect.  However, with the help of a black labrador retriever that particular obstacle is overcome.  Tucker, shown above at work, uses his doggie nose to locate and point …

One of the great shopping districts of Los Angeles is W. 3rd Street, near Beverly Hills.  One of the fine boutiques to have opened there recently is Show Pony.  Pushkin, an English Bulldog, belongs to Stephanie, the owner of the store, and helps customers select designer clothing and original jewelry along with other fine accessories.  …

Hollywood Cruising Dog

Photo of goggled white dog in a red PT Cruiser in Hollywood

This guy smiled for our camera because he knew how much we appreciated his overall coolness.  Googled and seatbelted he is ready to yowl at the snooty collared bitches walking the sidewalks of Beverly Hills.  We wonder if he got his haircut at Love to Groom in nearby Glendale, California.

Paddlewear for Puppies

Photo of dogs on a paddle boat each wearing lifevests

We saw this photograph on the Sacramento Bee website and thought of our own boating experiences here in southern California.   We work with a luxury tour company (Elite Adventure Tours) that invites families to bring their dogs along to see Hollywood and Beverly Hills so why wouldn’t families also want to take their pups …

Keeping Cool in the Groomer’s Pool

Photo of Bull Terrier being bathed at Love to Groom

There is nothing like a cool bath on a very hot southern California summer day.  This English Bull Terrier is having a very good time and I must admit that when the dogs really enjoy the water we give them a little extra tub time here at Love to Groom in Glendale, California. The weather …

Sweet (and crunchy) Dreams

Photo of puppy asleep in a bowl of kibble

This little guy won’t have far to go to get breakfast.  My only concern is his brother or sister whose bowl he is asleep in.  I sure hope they notice before they chow down.  Thanks to our Love to Groom friend sending this sweet photograph to add to our collection of doggie photos.  Some we …

Getting the Bath

Photo of black Pomeranian being bathed

We thought we would feature an “action” shot today of Darry’s bath and an “after” shot to show how worthwhile all the fuss is.  Actually, our dogs seldom do anything but enjoy all the pampering and attention.  Who wouldn’t?  I think you would agree she is smiling as is her bather.  That’s why we called …

I’m Not What I Eat

Another "bad" dog photograph to make us laugh

All of us who have harbored cats and dogs within our homes are very aware of the attraction of the litter box for the dog.  We have all developed strategies to minimize what is to us a disgusting habit (the cat thinks so, too!).  However, as unsettling as this is there is no real danger …
