Dog DJ Plans ‘Pet Sounds’ Weekend

Dog DJ Plans ‘Pet Sounds’ Weekend

by Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

Gracie had heard it all – or so she thought. 

The veteran dog DJ was looking for something new to spin when she happened upon a seemingly perfect LP – The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds.

“She hasn’t listened to any of it yet,” says Hank McCaffrey, a friend. “I probably should have told her what it was before she carved out all of next weekend to play it.”

Indeed, the pup plans to spend next Friday, Saturday and Sunday broadcasting the classic album that includes no actual animal sounds. 

“She’ll probably be a little disappointed,” says McCaffrey. “It still won’t be anywhere near as bad as her ‘Who Let The Dogs Out’ marathon last year, though.”

Puppy Really Wanted That Last Piece a Pie

Puppy Really Wanted That Last Piece a Pie

By Anna Washenko, FluffPo Correspondent

Astor, a black lab from Brooklyn with a flair for baking, brought a strawberry rhubarb pie to her friends’ Labor Day picnic on Long Island. The afternoon was a great success, but after the meal, Astor got wrapped up in a game of frisbee and never got a chance to taste the fruit of her labors.

After a thorough investigation, sources revealed that Jackson Jefferson ate the last slice before Astor had a chance to call dibs. The eight-­year-­old had already enjoyed a first slice when he chose to gobble up the final piece, but claimed that he didn’t mean to deprive the lab of his dessert.

“I asked twice if everybody had had some pie,” Jefferson said in his defense. “It’s not my fault if Astor didn’t hear me!”

Astor did not comment on his hurt feelings, but did stare mournfully at Jefferson for the remainder of the picnic.

Dog Has First Driving Lesson

Dog Has First Driving Lesson

by Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

Ripley is what you’d call an “intelligent” dog.

“He started learning things very quickly,” says Ryan Moore, Ripley’s owner. “Even as a puppy, you could tell he was smarter than most dogs. It only made sense to teach him how to drive.”

Though the pup’s size presented some practical challenges, he at least managed to cover the steering portion during his inaugural driving lesson last weekend.

“He was a bit jerky around the turns, but it wasn’t any worse than you’d expect from a dog,” says Moore. “Next week we’re going to try parallel parking.”
