One Small Step for Dogs, One Giant Leap for Dogkind!
Dog history has been made once again!
This time, it’s in the cinema field!
Eli, the Chihuahua is one of the very few dogs to have their own listing on IMDB! Too cute! Up ’til now, “they” said it couldn’t be done!
It’s a big achievement when you think about all the dogs who have had starring roles in television and film and so few of THEM are listed on the IMDB.
You might recognize Eli from the small dog MilkBone biscuit boxes. That’s him! Eli has appeared in many in-print magazines gracing multiple covers and fashion shows, “pawticipates” in many charity dogwalks and parades and is generally the “dog-about-town” in the Big Apple!
Eli’s owner, Karen Biehl has long been Eli’s champion and is seeing to it that credit is given where credit is due!
We applaud you Karen, for being such a great advocate for your budding star! And now, you can officially be called a “stage-dog mom”, LOL!
Eli will be appearing in a short film being screened at the New York Latino Film Festival July 30, in NYC called “Dog Run” and Eli himself will be making a personal appearance!
Eli’s message - don’t listen to the naysayers who say things can’t be done. Make your
own rules! WOOF 
We hope to bring you an interview with Eli the Chihuahua and his owner Karen soon, so keep checking back!

And You Think Your Dog Is Smart?
This is too cute! This is Willow The Reading Dog! Seriously.
Willow is an English Terrier mix that can actually obey written commands! He’s pictured below with his owner, Lyssa Rosenberg in Manhattan proving his amazing abilities!
Maybe THAT’S the secret; my dogs just don’t know how to read yet!

Bo Bites!
Our First DOTUS, Bo, the Portugese Water Dog, bites a television camera’s microphone in the Rose Garden of the White House during President Obama’s departure to Saudi Arabia for the first stop on his trip to the Middle East and Europe June 2, 2009 in Washington DC.
I’m starting to think that maybe the First Family should have listened to Cesar Millan awhile back when he gave them a little advice about who the “alpha dog” should be!
Bo Obama is a Beanie!
For all you Beanie Baby collectors, Bo the newest First Family addition, is now a Beanie!
After an initial shipment of 25 of the Bo The Portugese Water Dog Beanie Babies were shipped in April and sold out within a few hours; another shipment hit the exclusive retailers yesterday, Tuesday May 12 and were expected to also be gone by today!
The stuffed dog, comes with a red, white and blue ribbon around it’s neck and inside the swing tag says:
“I just want to jump and play, but I will NEVER run away;
I love my house, it’s big and white, and I can roam all day and night!”
Bo 2.0 comes in the original size and now comes in a larger size and a keychain version. I don’t know about you, but I absolutely can’t wait to get mine!
TY, the producer of the toy donates a portion of the proceeds to local animal shelters!
Siegfried and Roy Celebrate a Birthday!
Siegfried Fishbacher and Roy Horn; Masters of the Impossible, celebrated the first birthday of 5 of their tiger cubs yesterday, May 12, 2009 at Siegfried and Roy’s Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat at the Mirage in Las Vegas, Nevada!
Both Siegfried and Roy look GRRRRRRReat!
The tiger cubs look like they’re having a blast with their presents; wonder what’s inside them?
