You know you all want my job. Especially when the fact is that I get to spend my days hanging out with little puppies like this one. Meet Buster Brown. He is the newest addition to the Urban Hound. A baby goldendoodle. And I have to say - he is spectacular! When you see him on the streets, be sure to stop and give him some good loving!

Miss Lucy Ross

One of the first dogs I walked when I started working for the UH is Miss Lucy Ross - The sweetest Golden you've ever met. Me and Lucy have adventures all over Boston, throughout the South end, Back Bay, and all the way up through Kenmore Square on nice days. At times I would attempt to "sneak" Lucy into area businesses, often times halted at the door with "I'm sorry, service dogs only, sir", to which I would reply - "She's my self-esteem dog!" No one had taken the bate on that one yet, but we'll keep trying. Lucy is completely food-driven (who isn't?), and we have a ritual on Fridays which I call "Treat day". Lucy has been known to share all sorts of people food with me on Fridays because it's Treat day. Sometimes she'll join me for a (shhh!) cheeseburger at Wendy's or Burger King on Boylston, or sometimes it's sharing a slice of Pumpkin Loaf from Starbucks on Tremont, and we've even been known to devour a bag of Cape Cod Potato Chips from any of the convenience stores around town. I know that she would probably like dog-treats just as much but you just can't help it with Lucy - she's like a person. It's nice having companionship with such a wonderful animal, and at times I truly feel like she is my dog. I love her! Lucy will be welcoming a new baby sister/brother in April, and I have no doubt that she will be a terrific role model for her/him. It's nice to have an older sibling to take care of you.
