We Frenchies needed a bath the other day and, as you may know, we’re not too keen on baths.  I can’t tell you exactly why, but just the thought of getting one makes me shake like the dickens.  Anyway, Martha thought it would be a good idea to have G.K., the new pup, watch how …

Last week the nation watched on pins and needles as a stranded dog was saved from drowning in the overflowing Los Angles River. Nature doesn’t discriminate among those she affects, and thankfully, neither did the Los Angeles Fire Department.
The dog rescued in that brave effort has become known in the many follow-up stories in the …

The other day was really windy and rainy. As much as we animals wanted to go outside and play, the weather made that rather impossible. Our new brother, Ghenghis Khan (G.K. for short), wanted to go outside very badly, and I had to give him all the reasons why it would be a …

Last week, Uncle Carlos took us to visit his friend, Ann, who owns The Toy Chest in Ridgefield, Connecticut. We love toys and were very excited to go there. What Carlos failed to tell us was that The Toy Chest is full of human toys and not a store for dogs, yet we …

Sharkey and I were exploring the other day when we came upon the nearby Cross River Reservoir.  It was amazing how many rowboats there were upon the shore.  Sharkey told me that she has seen people fishing from these boats and that got us dreaming about a fresh caught fish for dinner.  However, we Frenchies …

As we gear up for the Purina ONE Tour for Heroes in February, I wanted to tell you about a great way to let people know about adoptable animals that also helps feed homeless pets. Just visit MarthaStewart.com/pet-adoption between January 15 and March 31, 2010, find an adoptable pet using the search tool, and …

This past weekend, Franny, Ghenghis Khan, and I traveled with Martha and Uncle Carlos up to the beautiful state of Vermont.  Martha wanted to visit a place called Viking Nordic Center to learn about grooming trails for cross country skiing.  While she was having a lesson about that, Franny and I decided to go off …

The other day, we took a drive to Connecticut with Martha and Uncle Carlos.  It was a very lovely day and the winter landscape looked beautiful.  Suddenly, something caught my attention and I told Carlos to stop the car.  Sharkey and I are always so curious to investigate new things and the display we found …

You may have read on Martha’s blog that she sent Eliad, her tech guy, to the big electronics show in Las Vegas.  He had a great time there and brought back some really cool new products to show Martha.  We Frenchies, being rather tech savvy ourselves, wanted to check out this new technology because we …

As a little girl growing up in New York City I did not have much interaction with horses.  I recall seeing the carriage horses waiting for tourists outside of Central Park and felt a sadness as I knew if they had a choice they’d likely choose to be running in pastures with their kin.
Through my …
