North's Big Adventure: Day Ten
Home at last! Although I am extra happy to have my lil' fella back home after ten days away, North seemed to have other ideas about this morning's end to his wild adventure at Wag Hotel. When I arrived to pick him up, I could hear him before I could see him .
North's Big Adventure: Day Five
Do you miss hearing about North? I sure wished I knew how he was doing so I gave San Francisco's Wag Hotel a call yesterday to check in. My crazy pup is playing with their number two group – good for dogs that aren't super active.

This will be the very first Christmas I have spent without North . . .

"Boston Terror" Chronicles: North Vs. TubNub (and Microfiber Towel)
Although I like to think North is pretty neutral to bath time, his pals at Wag Hotel tell me he loved the hydromassage he got on his last stay. In an attempt to recreate that at home, I tested out the FURminator TubNub ($13) on my pooch. A rubbery tool with nubs to massage a pet, work in the shampoo, and stimulate hair follicles during bath time, North seemed to enjoy this easy massage and it left my other hand free to hold him steady.
Four Chloes, Six Delgados But Only One Papi!
I totally enjoyed Beverly Hills Chihuahua (did you?) – so here's a tail-waggingly good tale about one of the film's heroes, the lovable and macho Papi. The bat-eared Chihuahua mix named Rusco was rescued for the part from the Moreno Valley Animal Shelter by a trainer who's now the pup's proud parent, too.The lil guy was a fast learner (just like another rescue-turned-star pooch I remember) able to quickly acclimate to a role in front of lights, cameras and action. His fave rewards during the learning process .
Do Tell: Speakerphone + Pets Equals . . .
Though North now spends my mini vacays at Pet Camp or Wag Hotel, when I lived in NYC, I'd usually just bring him up to my parents' house to stay with Gamma and Gampa. The first time I left him was on a long trip to London, and I called often (and I mean often) to check up.
One day my mother put me on speakerphone to talk directly to North – I guess my silly pup ran all around the room from the phone and to the door looking for me!
Send a Pooch Packing for Summer Camp?
Besides Wag Hotel, I know I've mentioned before how much I adore Pet Camp here in SF where North stays when I leave town. And after reading the current issue of Modern Dog Magazine, I want to send him to a real pet camp now, too!
The Double Dog Ranch was featured in this season's issue of MDM, and I can't get enough of the happy pooch pics on their website!
Do You Leave Music on For Your Pets?
Not only are pets great companions, we now know what good therapy having a pet can be. Petting our furry friends, or even just watching our fishies swim around their tank can lower our blood pressure and reduce the risk of a heart attack. But as much as pets benefit humans, I can't help but wonder how we can help them in return.
