  • Sunday Dog, “Sandy” Loves Boston!

    DSC_7666 - Version 22012-08-28-sandy-beagle-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    … and, Boston loves her right back! Who wouldn’t? Sandy has the sweetest face with a personality to match. Although she only arrived a couple of weeks ago, this 10-year-old Beagle beauty told us she feels right at home.

    A North Shore transplant, Sandy is very calm and loving with a quiet confidence that makes her a hit with everyone she meets– including her new housemate, a meow named Dunhill.

    Sandy exchanging "Hello Sniffs" with former Sunday Dog stars, King (rt) & Poppy (in back)!

    Even though Sandy doesn’t play favorites and thoroughly enjoys meeting other dogs and people, we have to believe that she has a slight preference for friends with leashes.

    Although in the country Sandy had the beach and a big yard, she’s quickly learning that the entire city is her new playpen with exciting, new places to explore!

    We can tell by the look on that face that Sandy is happy in her new, loving home and obviously enjoys savoring the moment. Welcome to Boston, Sandy! You’re now an official, “city girl.”

  • Beware of Sunday Dog! Masked Beauty “Miika” Steals Hearts!

    PMC_5975 - Version 22012-08-11-Miika-sunday-dog-boston-husky-mix-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Too late! We tried to warn you. Masked beauty Miika has stolen another heart and you’re smiling, aren’t you? It’s perfectly okay. We couldn’t resist her hypnotic charm either.

    PMC_5941 - Version 22012-08-11-Mikka-sunday-dog-boston-husky-mix-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    This 14-week-old Siberian Husky mix is getting to know her new home in Boston and winning over everyone she meets! With the help of the Sterling Animal Shelter, Miika arrived in town a few weeks ago and is already adapting to city life.

    PMC_5963 - Version 22012-08-11-Miika-sunday-dog-boston-husky-mix-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    While she’s liking the city, Miika admitted to having been a little scared during a recent, heavy rain storm. But, after making friends with the puddles it left behind, this inquisitive puppy just might be warming up to all that wet stuff.
     
    PMC_5956 - Version 22012-08-11-Miika-sunday-dog-boston-husky-mix-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Her favorite toy is a huge, stuffed dog (almost as big is she is) that Miika likes to sleep with.

    Miika has been quick to learn that only going while outside makes her housemates happy– not a surprising achievement for this highly intelligent breed.

    Thanks for being such a great model, Miika. You’re one special girl. We’re looking forward to watching you grow.

  • Provincetown “Frenchie” with a Stand-in!

    PMC_1248 - Version 22012-04-15Frenchie-provincetown-garden-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    On every Provincetown visit we make a point of checking out some of our favorite gardens. This one, on Commercial Street, had a new addition– a Frenchie sculpture.

    PMC_1253 - Version 22012-04-15Frenchie-provincetown-garden-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Suddenly, the real star emerged from the house, and granted a brief, private photo op!

    DSC_3750 - Version 22012-04-15Frenchie-provincetown-garden-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    And, just as abruptly, returned to seclusion, leaving the stand-in to deal with the next admirers!

    Thanks for coming out to see us, little Frenchie!

  • Tranquil Cloister

    PMC_8507 - Version 32012-03-18-Boston-university-campus-marsh-chapel-area-arches-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    On a quiet morning,

    Sun streaming through the arches,

    Turquoise tiles shimmering in the light,

    Marsh Chapel's cloister was tranquil.

    Sunday coffee with friends

    And, one very good dog.

  • Sunday Dog, Taco – Country Boy Discovers City Life!

    IMG_3959 - Version 22011-11-25-taco-leaves-fall-australian-shepard-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    For a country boy who’s spent his formative “months” romping in the open spaces of north central Massachusetts, Sunday Dog Taco is learning all about city life. This gorgeous, red merle, Australian Shepherd, originally from Ashburnham (about an hour west of Boston), is a very friendly one year old who loves other dogs.

    IMG_0762 - Version 22011-11-25-taco-leaves-fall-australian-shepard-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    This Aussie’s stunning coat is only surpassed by those captivating eyes– very useful for a any herding breed.

    We met Taco as he was sniffing out the landscape…

    IMG_3937 - Version 22011-11-25-taco-leaves-fall-australian-shepard-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    A Little Bit of Country Right Here in the Big City!

     

    Getting to know a new place always takes some time and can be a bit lonely in at first. Taco’s person told us that he loves doggy daycare and has met a number of dogs, which has been helpful.

    Like most Australian Shepherds, this guy is full of energy and needs a lot of activity and stimulus. He loves to play and is always on the lookout for a new playmate.

    IMG_3951 - Version 22011-11-25-taco-leaves-fall-australian-shepard-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Because Aussie’s are very intelligent and learn quickly, it’s no wonder they excel at search & rescue, detection, and as service dogs.

    IMG_0766 - Version 22011-11-25-taco-leaves-fall-australian-shepard-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Taco got to know us quickly, letting us photograph him– almost posing at times. He loved getting the attention as much as we loved showering him with it.

    We left our Sunday Dog with a goodbye pat as he greeted more new friends. I think our country boy is made for the city.
