National Pet Week: Make Us Want To Kidnap Your Animal Because Of Its Cuteness

Amelia McDonell-ParryMay 6, 2008 //


Meet Our Office Dog, Lucca from streeter seidell on Vimeo.

It’s National Pet Week! In honor of all things cute and mushy and wrinkly and wet-nosed, we’d like you to send us pictures of your pets (email pictures to tips@thefrisky.com). At the end of the week we’ll post the ten most squeal-inducing so your friends, neighbors, and the strangers on this here interweb can “ooh” and “ahh” over your pets’ adorableness. Since it would be totally unfair for me to include my dog Lucca among the top ten, I will just post this video of her when she was a puppy to inspire you. Keep reading »

Style On The Street: The Best Accessory

Catherine StrawnApril 24, 2008 //

She’s added a ring, sunglasses, a scarf, and what looks like a Chanel bag to her simple black-and-white ensemble, but the best addition to this girl’s outfit, by far, is her dog. Do they carry those at Barneys? [Trender Bender] Keep reading »

More Sexist Puppy Clothes!

Amelia McDonell-ParryApril 14, 2008 //

Ugh! I was out running errands this weekend when I saw two more examples of dog clothes being used to promote lame sexist attitudes. This hoodie says “He Goes To Work…We Shop!”, which annoys me because I can totally see some fo’ realz gold diggers outfitting their innocent pups in it. Your dogs would rather be licking their balls than shopping ladies! The other, after the jump, is more Playmate Of The Year nonsense. I get it — “playmate”, hardy har. All I know is my dog would have an awfully hard time rolling around in the mud in a jacket made for a pint-sized Pink Lady. Keep reading »

A Doggie Wedding Next Door!

Amelia McDonell-ParryApril 9, 2008 //

The Frisky was on the way to lunch when we noticed that on the rooftop of the doggie daycare next door, a photo shoot was taking place! A wedding photo shoot! With puppies! Our reaction was a mix of excitement (me!), revulsion (Emily), and “huh?” (Catherine). What do you guys think of household pets having weddings? Keep reading »

Playboy For Puppies!

Amelia McDonell-ParryApril 9, 2008 //

Last night before The Frisky went bowling (highest scores of our lives, all around, FYI), we stopped by Strawberry, a cheap chain on the East Coast which sells Forever 21-esque garments. And look what we found! A doggy dress with Playboy bunnies all over it! You know, it’s disturbing enough when pre-teens have thongs and Playboy t-shirts at their fingertips, but leave our puppies alone, Hef! Keep reading »

Kimora Lee Simmons’ Doggie Diamond

Amelia McDonell-ParryMarch 21, 2008 //

My dog, Lucca, had to go to the vet today which has got me thinking about what I would do if she didn’t come home — pets are like family and the only thing I love more than her is my fiancé. My mom and brother are third and fourth (sorry, guys!). So aside from contemplating taking a long walk off a short pier, I think I might follow Kimora Lee Simmons lead. Her beloved dog Zoe just died and she’s thinking about having the 18-year old pup’s remains turned into a diamond. Say what? “There is a company that makes diamonds out of your loved ones,” the fabulous Kimora told People. “They make diamonds from a little of the carbon from the ash, so I might do that.” It seems like a better way of keeping your dog with you at all times — after all, my childhood cat, Ribbon, is sitting in a tin in a storage facility somewhere in Southern California.

Can You Judge Man’s Sexual Prowess By Man’s Best Friend?

Amelia McDonell-ParryJanuary 3, 2008 //

She may play an awesome bitch on TV, but Curb Your Enthusiasm‘s Susie Essman told Animal Fair magazine that you can tell how awesome a man is in bed based on his bitch — that is, his dog.

“You want a guy that’s good in bed? Find a guy with a Shih Tzu or a Pomeranian or a little Yorkie. Because if he’s secure enough in his sexuality to carry around a frou-frou little dog like that, that is a guy who’s a keeper. Never go out with a guy with a beagle. I know they’re cute, cute, cute, but they’re dumb, dumb, dumb, and they have no attention span, so you’re with the guy and he might not know what to do – the next night, you have to tell him all over again.”

Crap. My dog Lucca is a mutt, but we (Note: That is, myself and my boyfriend, who parents her with me — and yes I said parent. Deal with it.) are pretty sure she’s probably a mix of Italian Greyhound (known for loving the attention of people), Jack Russell (hyper, much?), and, gulp, Beagle. This begs the question: If a man owns a Beagle with a woman, does that mean they both suck in bed? Catherine and I discuss the issue, after the jump. Keep reading »
