MY PALS: Bandit & Montauk
Well it’s about time! Beagle Man finally took me along to Montauk this past weekend. He’s been leaving me behind in Westport, just because I tend to steal the occasional steak or burger when they’re grilling. (Hello? I’m a beagle?) He gave me another chance, and for the most part, I thought I…
Ricky and Sputnik?
Last week a friend from Massachusetts sent me a cartoon, “Soviet Space Dogs — A Tribute to Canine Cosmonauts (by Scott Beale; see a portion of the cartoon at right). I had totally forgotten about that period during the 1950s and ’60s when the Russians used dogs for space flights, to see how it ev…
MY PALS: Crosby
Ever since that damn reunion in June, Beagle Man’s all “Teaneck High School this” and “Teaneck High School that.” Excuse me, but aren’t you supposed to not talk about something you neglected to bring your so-called “best friend” to? (Even though I hear a certain little Pomeranian puffball named…

Teardown?
Okay, just because I spent $240 yesterday on a new carbon paddle — two thirds the price I paid for the whole kayak a few years ago! — doesn’t mean I’m stupid. You won’t catch me shelling out $20,000 for a Rockstar Puppy custom doghouse equipped with heat and air-conditioning that can be contro…

MY PALS: Smokey
It’s true: Most of my pals are dogs. But not all. I’d like you to meet my new pal, Smokey. Smokey showed up over the weekend at Beagle Man’s friend Mimi’s house in Simsbury. Mimi already has Hooch, a black lab, and Simon, a yellow lab. But she’s a pushover when it comes to animals — she resc…
