Lala

I met Lala, the adorable Miniature Schnauzer, running in the green space of Washington Park....right in front of the historic and beautiful Music Hall. She's a city girl...lives downtown.

Lala was given to her human mom as a birthday gift from her boyfriend:)

Lala was a real comfort for her human mom as her  dad was battling Pancreatic cancer.  

The name Lala has many significances:

First, it is short for Lavender the mom's favorite color....(my favorite too) p.s.

Second, it is the mom's best friend's nickname:)

And finally, purple is the color for Pancreatic Cancer Awareness.

No doubt, Lala brings joy to everyone she meets.  

When I met her, she flipped right over onto her back and squealed...."that means she likes you".

This was only the second time they had been to the dog park and it wasn't going so well.

"She jumped into four people's laps.  She's more interested in the people than the dogs!"

And that's what I loved most about Lala...she has so much love she wants to give a little to everyone.

Winifred

You can pick Winifred out of a crowd.  You can't NOT notice her. I saw Winifred at the Madeira Art Show.  She had everyone's heads turning as she passed.  Famous. 

She is the perfect specimen of an English Bulldog....a real solid beauty. Winifred will be 7 this year.

I say, "She should be in movies...she's a gorgeous bulldog."

Her human dad says, "Well... her parents are both champions!"  Well no wonder.

I ask him to tell me something about Winifred...love the name p.s.

"Oh...... Winnie is just Winnie.....she loves to get her favorite peanut butter cookies from the coffee shop up the street. We pretty much can't walk by there without her wanting me to go in and get them for her:)"

I'm thinking he's talking about Coffee Please in Madeira.....and I'm also thinking now I need to try  these famous cookies because Winnie looks like she knows what she's talking about.  

Thanks for the tip Win.....

Theo

When I spotted Theo, I literally drove around the block to swing back around so I could meet him.

He's such a unique and beautiful dog...


Look at that smile ! He's as happy as everyone else in Cincinnati for some sunshine in our lives:)

I asked his human mama if there was any significance to why she named him Theo.

She smiled, "No, I just really loved the name." :)

Theo is a 2 year old rescue....the best guess on his breed is Basenji and Australian Cattle Dog.  

I love the polka dots on his front legs.  

He looks so tough.....like if there was a Navy Seal division of dogs, he would pass with flying colors.  But his mom said, "He's really sweet.....he's super playful and a bit stubborn. 

Thanks for chatting Theo and soak up that sun !

Ethel-Mae

This is Ethel-Mae from Mt. Adams.

"It's spelled M-A-E because she's Irish:)"

What a great name!

Ethel knows everyone in Mt. Adams and where they live.  

She'll wait on her friends' front stoops until they come out and say hello.

Ethel's favorite place to hang out on the hill is Monk's.

\

Ethel-Mae is 16 years old and is as sweet and cute as can be.

Next time you're in Mt. Adams make sure to give her a shout-out!

Romey

This Cincinnati dog has a happy ending kind of a story.

He was in a puppy mill for the first part of his life and unwanted after they were finished with him.  

Puppy Mills are abominable p.s. 

A shelter rescued him and named him Romeo because he was so affectionate...what a resilient little soul.

And then an Angel couple adopted him.

They call him Romey:)

Best guess on his breed is Bichon mixed with something pretty darn cute.

He has the absolute best life now and is showered with love and kisses...and respect.

He loves the other doggy in the house, Poppy, and grooms him everyday.....ummm all day.

His human mom says laughing,

"In fact, Romey is a compulsive licker.  He cannot stop licking, he's obsessed.....he even licks the air."

Bless his heart...Look at that face..100% adorable!

Buckeye

Yes, in Ohio we name our dogs after our college football teams.  #NationalChamps #hollah

Buckeye was rescued by a family who said they "would never get a dog...especially one that sheds."

So what did they do?

They went and got a white dog that sheds every two seconds:)

Buckeye has only had one major penalty so far.

He ate half the Christmas ornaments.

When the vet came in she said, "The X-Ray shows tinsel."  

Thank goodness he was ok even though he did have some shiny poop that night:)....Merry Christmas!

Buckeye is a love bug who likes to cuddle with the two girls in the family and go on runs with Mom and Dad.  And look at those eyes...they are mesmerizing...

It's all about Buckeye. Because that's what

 happens when you get a dog......

One day you swear you'll never get one, and the next day you're on hold with Pottery Barn trying to locate a miniature white chair to get his name embroidered on it.  

GO BUCKS!!!

Mowgli

This is Mowgli the teeny tiny puppy.

He is impossibly cute...truly he is.

I feel like if Hollywood were casting a dog for a new 'Lil Rascals movie, he would get the part for sure......he'd look perfect hangin' in that clubhouse.

So, here's his story.....

Mowgli was found in the East End of Cincinnati with his brother.


Two wonderful ladies who are cousins took them both home respectively to keep forever. The boys are loved very much and get to see each other still.  #whatsupbro


Mowgli's new human mama took him everywhere with her and would ask everyone she met their opinion on a name.  Someone offered Mowgli, and that was it. 

Best guess on his breed is Chorkie  (Chihuahua/Yorkie mix)....What?!?...even a cute breed name...no fair.

He is a big hit in his neighborhood.  All the kids run to see him after school.  And he is so affectionate.

                          By the way,                                        
            His brother's name is Bagheera:)

"Forget about your worries and your strife"....

(from The Jungle Book) 

Bless your little puppy face Mowgli!

thanks!  #dogsofcincy #wagyourtale #puparazzi

*Side note for non Disney gurus...Mowgli and Bagheera are characters from The Jungle Book :)

Poppy

I met Poppy in the suburb of Montgomery.  

He's a 6 year old Maltipoo. 

I think his smile may be permanent.

Or maybe it was because he was on his way to Pet People to get bully sticks.

His human mom said:

"We named him Poppy so we could call him Pops when he gets older:)"

"And watch this trick......Where's dad?  Where's dad? "


And this is what he does:

I can't.......it was just too cute.  

He stood like that forever.  

"He doesn't like for his dad to be very far away," she said

Oh Pops,  you made my day!

Molly

When you just want to take a walk in peace and the puparazzi is stalking you...

I mean, look at that expression. I love it..she's over me before we've even met.  HA!

Seriously though, it was a comedy show.  

Everytime I would kneel down to take a photo she would turn her back.  

So.....I let her be and talked to her cute and super friendly human mom for awhile.

I found out that Molly loves sports.  The family calls her Air Bud.

Her favorite sports to play with the kids are basketball and soccer..she really gets in there with them.

But if there is a turnover and she gets the ball...game over.....she deflates it most of the time.

Kind of like Bam Bam, doesn't know her own strength:)

Sooooooo.....by this time, me and the mom are friends and...... 

  Molly was beginning to think maybe she WOULD like to be on a dog blog and I snapped this pic

Look at that posture...what a beauty!

Molly is six years old. She's a gorgeous American Bulldog.

Thanks for giving me a challenge Molly. Have a nice walk...... I promise I won't follow you:)
