  • Sunday Dog, “Sandy” Loves Boston!

    … 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.”

  • Sunday Dog Wilson, the Fastest Tongue in Boston!

    DSC_2487 - Version 22012-03-18-winston-sunday-dog-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Wilson not only has the fastest, but also the most accurate tongue in all of Boston! Of course, you wouldn’t know it to look at this handsome little guy, but when you’re this good, there’s absolutely no need to brag.

    Besides, maintaining a low profile preserves the element of surprise. A “Lightning Licker,” as they’re known in the trade, can be quite the cunning character. This extraordinarily talented actor might pretend to be following a scent, when he’s actually moving into position.

    Or, as Wilson so expertly demonstrates, there’s the classic “Staring Off into the Distance” pose– often employed just before the final set-up. This crafty canine appears to be in a trance-like state, but it’s a sure sign that he’s about to strike!

    A blur of pink extends toward his target as Wilson lunges in for a landing. Notice the body extension and fluid form that propels him toward his destination. You can tell, it’s not his first time.

    And, we have Touchdown! What precision! What grace! (Your Applause, Here)

  • Catching Up with a Favorite Sunday Dog, Riley!

    PMC_8080 - Version 22012-03-05-riley© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    It’s no secret (at least not anymore) that one of our favorite Sunday Dogs is a sweetheart named Riley. We hadn’t seen her in quite a while until a chance meeting the other day gave us all some much needed time to do a bit of catching up. 

    PMC_8056 - Version 22012-03-05-riley-Golden-retriever-boston-back-bay-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Riley was so happy to see us, that she was willing to give up a tasty stick to say hello. We were honored.

    Are you going to show them my baby pictures?
     I’ll never forget the first time we saw this gorgeous Golden. She was quite little and hard at play with a Doberman puppy friend named Lola. They were both trying to dig their way to China– and probably would have made it, if we hadn’t distracted them.

    At 2 ½, Riley has grown into a beautiful and loving companion with an incredibly gentle soul. Her person told us how she’d lucked out with Riley. But, we think they lucked out with each other.
