TOP DOG

ere, Gentlemen, a Dog teaches us a lesson in humanity.

There
were certainly signs, a familiarity, a calling.
Something drew me to Sculpture.

CRIMSON
FLOURISH
First Prize in Sculpture
2007
In
Architecture class I designed new columns
for our apartment building at 15 East 10th Street in
NYC, something more in keeping with the character of
the place. I titled it
after Maitre Rodin's masterpiece.

Painting
was ... messy....
Getting
a well-rounded Arts and Humanities
Education, I read about Felix Mendelsohn, a composer.
|
It's
not all Theory and History. Baby Frida and I
practice singing "a capella" at The DOGHOUSE
during Spring brake. |
I
also studied Drama:
"Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears!"
That's Mister Shakespeare, from England.
"Cleanliness
is next to godliness" means you must be well disciplined in
all you do,
including in your appearance, so I have my special groomer Melissa to
"dude" me up.
She takes care of Baby Frida too, as well as Sophie's mainicure/pedicures.
"No
pain, no gain!" Yeah, sure! Hate Phys Ed but, if you
wanna be TOP DOG like moi, you gotta do what you gotta
do.

Gave
football
a shot but, violent game. Non pour moi, merci!
And I can't say I like all those sick VICK and PIERCE goon type.
I'll get my execise otherwise.... |
Tried basketball but I'm too small. I'm a "mini" Schnauzer,
you know....
Jumping after all the BIG guys leaves me 'xhausted.
I like climbing in the snow.
Bird
Dogging is great in winter too. I'm learning to Bird Dog.
I
prefer summer, though. Swimming is SO-O-O-O-O much more my bag!
SO-O-O-O-O
much more relassssssssssssss....
Come,
Sophie, you'll love it!
