TODAY A 'STAR' WALKED INTO MY LIFE - FOR REAL!
Sooooo.... I had this nice long nap in the sun and before you knew it another couple of weeks had passed. I woke up all disoriented and it took me a while to remember that I have a photo contest on the go! The thing that tipped me off was when this super hot mama of a German Shepherd strolled in from the elevator and right past my bed. Yowza! My ears perked right up (well, OK, they twitched at least) and she glanced over at me and told me her name was Star and also that she was too young for me - only 23 years old (I think that's four human years??? Humans - can you help me out on this?)
I played it Dave cool and told her I wasn't no dirty old dog, I just thought she would be very photogenic and that she should get her human to snap some pics of her around the hotel so they could enter the contest. She didn't answer but I could tell by the way her gorgeous brown eyes lit up that she took a liking to the idea. Now that's the kind of girl I could see coming around the hotel more often!
I know I'm being selfish here but I want to make sure everybody gets a good look at this dame and so I've decided to extend the deadline of the contest to September 15th for entry submissions in hopes she and her human can get it together and send in an entry. The submissions we've received so far have been fantastic and I love every single one - I've got a new human helper who is going to post them up on the site soon for you all to look at, and hopefully it gets you motivated to come on down to the hotel and take a few pictures of yourselves. And while you're here, don't forget to come by my bed near the concierge desk and fill me in on all the gossip!
Oh yeah - email your pics to christine.ball@sidneypier.com before September 15th to enter to win some fine fine prizes for you and your humans! Hotel stays, spa and restaurant gift certificates.... and, Star, if you don't have any plans later on tonight maybe we can go for a moonlight stroll....? Really, I'm only 25!
Looks like you're falling in love Dave. But I couldn't believe it. You're 25 years old? That's amazing! I believe you're one of those Golden Retrievers who exceeded your breed's average life span of which I have read about from http://www.trainpetdog.com/Golden-Retriever/about-golden-retriever.html. How did you achieve that? I'm curious.
ReplyDeleteHey Dog -
ReplyDeleteNo offense to the gorgeous golden retrievers out there, but I'm a black lab, through and through. I'm 25 in dog years, which I think is a little more than four human years?? My math isn't so good so if you can set me straight that would be swell. Thanks, Dog!
