Oscars' Slideshow: Little Lily Dogs

PetSugar — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 03:00:04 -0800

It's nearly time for this year's Academy Awards, and we're all gearing up for the big night! Buzz has a fun Oscar ballot contest, and Yum already gave us a sweet peek at what they'll be snacking on at the Governors Ball. I love the red carpet . . . especially the glamorous gowns! Even though, most of us wouldn't deck a pup all matchy matchy, there's no reason why we can't aspire to having an outfit for our furry friends that would make even a celebrity jealous! Last year, doggie designer Littly Lily created replica gowns for pets – so see how they measure up to the couture. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next! Check out some of my faves from last year in this slideshow! Source

In preparation for Sunday's show, let's offer early congratulations to the AHA Pawscar winners! (If you've forgotten, the American Humane Association is the organization verifying the line "No Animals Were Harmed in the Making of this Movie.") Of the Oscar-nominated flicks starring animals this year, they honored Avatar, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. I learned some fun facts about the animals used in filming - see how much you know and get started now!

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.

In the Spotlight: 2008 Oscar Goodies For Pets

PetSugar — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 10:15:42 -0800

Every year in February, celebs are gifted with swag beyond my wildest dreams at The Oscars. This year, the mother of all award shows has taken note of the number of celebrities with pets - and apparently recognizing how much we all spend on our little companions - Oscar included some pretty sweet items for Fido and Sassy as well.

With past people prizes generally being electronics, spa treatments, and fancy trips, this year the goodies also included some high-end pet beauty products, clothing, and things that sparkle. Take a look at what was included for those spoiled celeb pups and kitties in my Oscar Gift Bag widget when you read more.

Will Loki Be Mickey's Date to the Oscars?

PetSugar — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 12:00:47 -0800

Golden Globe winner Mickey Rourke stopped by The View today to chat about his pups . . . and joked (or not?!) about bringing his 17-and-a-half-year-old Chihuahua, Loki, as his date for the Oscars. I would definitely tune in to see that since I already melted when he thanked his dogs at the last awards show. No wonder he gives them so much credit – he's got quite a few to keep him company. Check it out below.

Oscar and Friends: A Tribute to London's Famous Pup

PetSugar — Wed, 28 May 2008 13:45:14 -0700

When I got word about the passing of Oscar – dubbed the "Met Bar" dog – I decided to round up a gallery of some of the people that considered this celebripup to be a pal. I was shocked by some of the famous faces – Gwenyth, George, Cher – that stopped for a piccy with this pooch in London over the years. Learn a bit more about his story by checking out this slideshow of celebs and the posing pup!

Cinnabun Slobbers Kisses on Jesse James!

PetSugar — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 11:55:56 -0800

Looks like some pup is surely glad to be home again! I was happily surprised, too, when the West Coast Choppers' shop dog was found and returned last month, and even though the pittie became a bit skinnier during her time away, she's nearly back to normal now!

Both owner Jesse James and his wife pleaded for the dog's safe return, but, as it turns out, Sandra Bullock got Cinny back and won that Oscar (plus a Razzie, too) - happiness all around!

Jesse James Still Misses CinnaBun (and Sandra Does, Too)!

PetSugar — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 12:00:00 -0800

Last week, I brought you the sad news of this pooch's Long Beach disappearance, and she's still on the loose with the offered reward now up to $5,000! Owner Jesse James continues to tweet new pics in the hopes that someone sees the pittie - this sweet one nearly made me tear up.

Even his wife misses CinnaBun, reportedly saying that she'd give anything, including her Oscar nomination, to get the dog back. I'm not surprised, since animal-loving Sandra Bullock is already a great doggie mom to Ruby and Poppy.

Remember, if you hear anything about the pup, call 562-983-6666. In the meantime, see more pittie pics when you read more.
