Cuteness Continues on the Set of Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2

PetSugar — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 03:00:20 -0700

Hola, Papi! The loveable, rescued star of the original movie is back on set to film Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2! I can only guess what trouble the tiny pups will nearly escape from (fingers and paws crossed) this time, but I'm willing to bet there still won't be any scrimping in the fashion department.

As you may remember, even though the other main canine stars like Chloe and Delgado had many furry understudies, just one pooch - real name, Rusco - played Papi who found a new friend and forever home with one of the flick's trainers.

Check out more pics of the bat-eared pup and his lil costars in a gallery when you read more.

Name That Movie: Horse Edition

PetSugar — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 09:00:49 -0700

What little girl doesn't love horse movies? I know I did when I was young (who am I kidding, I still love them!), and so did my fellow Sugar Staffers. I asked them to send me their favorite movies that star horses (or ones where horses play a big part in the film), and we came up with a pretty big list of must-sees for any horse fan. Now it's time for you to find out how well you know your equine flicks in this quiz!

Question 1 of 12

Will You Go See Disney/Pixar's Up?

PetSugar — Fri, 29 May 2009 15:05:08 -0700

I got the chance to screen Up along with my pals, BuzzSugar and lilsugar - after all, the movie included the super cute Dug, so I was there. Without giving any major plot points away, my favorite things - the "cone of shame," a walker's tennis ball used for fetch, and the collar translator for stream-of-consciousness pup voice - outweighed the negatives (some birdie abuse, "bad dogs," and one scary scene for animal lovers). All in all, the 3D graphics were stunning, and it's an animated film, so no creatures were actually harmed in the making! Check out some of my favorite movie pics below - will you watch?

Breaking News: Dug From Up, the Palm Dog Winner at Cannes!

PetSugar — Fri, 22 May 2009 10:20:51 -0700

Four paws up to the super cute Dug, can you dig it? The animated star of the upcoming Disney-Pixar 3D animated caper captured this year's Palm Dog award at the Cannes Film Festival! The flick, Up, features several hilarious dogs - and a ginormous bird - and I can't wait to see this pooch in action, especially after what my pals BuzzSugar and geeksugar had to say about their sneak peek and interviews with the director and producer.

I guess you can't give an animated dog a treat, but here's an e-bone for you, lil guy!

Brush Up on 2009 Oscar Animal-Related Trivia With This Quiz!

PetSugar — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 07:15:14 -0800

In my opinion, there are never enough furry friends in Oscar-nominated movies, even though one big winner in 2008 included a gruesome dog scene. I took a look at this year's nominated films and nominees, then tried to come up with as many wild facts as I could about the actors and the movies in question. If you think you know a thing or two (or seven) about the 2009 Oscars, take my quiz and see if you really do.

Will You Go See Hotel For Dogs in Theaters?

PetSugar — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 15:20:52 -0800

The Hotel For Dogs isn't a swank, professionally run facility, but instead one started by two driven children (Emma Roberts and Jake T. Austin) who let their imaginations run wild when finding an abandoned hotel on a quest for a safe home for their pooch, Friday. I got a sneak peek at this film – opening Jan. 16 – and must say: I. Loved. It.

First off, you've gotta go in with an open mind (obviously, this couldn't really happen), but I can't remember a film with more insanely cute dogs doing insanely cute things (kissing, pouting, posing, etc.). This is definitely the one time to round up any children in your life and use them as your excuse . . . if you need one. Most of the dogs were discovered (read: rescued), then trained to be actors in a noisy crash course – check out a behind-the-scenes clip below.

Name This Movie Cat!

"Like a seeping mist, I will creep into the dogs' center of power, and make them quake in fear at the very mention of my name!" What is this movie cat's name?
