  • Good Bye, Sandy

    Sandy, 1999 – 2009

    Last Saturday my friend Adam McLaughlin had to say good bye to his sweet girl Sandy.  She had finally lost her battle with cancer.  He is completely heartbroken.  And again there are no words I can offer, but know that by adopting that abandoned, emaciated, and terrified pup 9 years ago, you gave Sandy an incredible love-filled life.

    I never met her, but I had the privilege of working with her image when your sister Meredith commissioned me to create a collage for you as a Christmas gift (above).  I was so inspired by her beauty and her regal bearing.  But I especially loved the photos of you two sitting on the couch together, so happy and at peace.  That was three years ago, and I remember Meredith feeling a sense of urgency because Sandy had been diagnosed with cancer already.  It is amazing that she was able to thrive for so long.  But she had a wonderful life thanks to you, her devoted dad.  I am so sorry for your loss, Adam.  And I hope that somehow each day gets a little easier.

    Here is the video tribute Meredith made for Sandy entitled The World's Greatest Dog:


    P.S. Adam has my same last name, but we are not related. Although, his sister Meredith is a longtime friend whom my family calls our faux sister. So I guess that makes Adam my faux brother. And Sandy my faux doggie niece.

  • William Wegman’s Weimaraners Baking Bread

    I stopped watching Sesame Street in the early 70’s so I missed some great segments from the later years like William Wegman’s Weimaraners baking bread. Sometimes I think his dogs look like they’re not into the whole dressing up thing, but they look like they’re having fun here, especially the dog at the end. Enjoy!

    Sesame Street continues to amaze.

  • Mickey Rourke Thanks His Dogs At Golden Globes

    I fell in love with Mickey Rourke in Diner.   It’s nice to see him back and it’s nice to see dogs getting the recognition they deserve.

    Rourke has 7 Chihuahuas including Loki, his 16-year-old constant companion.
