All humans have the right to…

  • Believe that your dog is Elvis reincarnated who deserves to win the next American Dog Idol.
  • Believe your dog is smarter than all the Presidents of United States.
  • Believe that humans should only be tolerated while dogs should be welcomed.
  • Go to the extreme in pampering your dog even if it means breaking the bank.
  • Get in debt to keep your dog on life support.
  • Secretly love your dog more than your own spouse or children.
  • Wish you could have married your dog.
  • Change your plans to accommodate your dog’s needs.
  • Remain silent but if you do many homeless and abused dogs will not survive.
All dogs have the right to…

  • A safe and nurturing environment free of abuse, intimidation and exploitation.
  • Access to medical care and food & water.
  • Be treated with dignity, respect and love.
  • Expect humans to be a voice for the voiceless and fight for dogs’ life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
  • Do whatever it takes to protect man’s best friend from exploitation, abuse and homelessness.
  • Seek justice for acts of violence and exploitation against dogs.

we, the dogs

Patriotic Dogs
                                  “Freedom is the oxygen of the soul.”  ~Moshe Dayan

Happy Independence Day My Fellow Americans,

The three most powerful and inspiring words that make me wag my tail uncontrollably are: We, The People!

Now, as a patriotic rescued dog, I don’t take anything for granted but especially when it comes to inalienable rights, you know rights given to you by God and not the state, and personal freedoms.  I was born to be free, right? 

Seriously, it worries me to see how those rights are being incrementally taken away from my human friends.   For example, did you know that Congress is holding hearings on the Stop Online Privacy Act (SOPA)?   If this bill passes, the Internet and free speech will never be the same.  Also, evidently the threat of Internet censorship is very real and thankfully many caring groups are now
participating in American Censorship Day (http://americancensorship.org/) to protest this bill.

I tell you, if a dog like me, who is programmed to be vigilant with a discerning mind, can get easily distracted by watching too much trash TV, is it any wonder that the voice of many of my human friends is mute?  And we all know what happens when we sleep at the wheel, right?

That’s why celebrating the Fourth of July is such a great reminder of the unique privilege and the enduring power of  “We, The People” to protect the Bill of Rights and the Constitution against any tyrannical government.   In doggie terms, keep your eyes on the prize (your freedoms under the Bill of Rights and the Constitution).

As a passionate dog advocate, I’m naturally constantly looking for creative ways to help my doggie friends in need whose voice can’t be heard.  So, the concept of “We, The People” sparked the idea for me to create “We, The Dogs” and “Cutie’s Bill of Rights.” Imagine, now millions of man’s best friend will be able to enjoy the same inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as humans but especially the right to be free of the horrors of daily abuse, exploitation, homelessness and even death sentence.  Now that’s a novel idea worth barking about, right?

Digg this….

You have more power than you know. So, use it or lose it!

People Power
Also, stay vigilant. Don’t let “We, The People” turn into “We, The Corporations”!

People Power
So go ahead and enjoy your barbecue and hot dogs (no pun intended) and party like it’s 1776, but do as doggies do: don’t let your guards down because if you snooze, you lose!

Want to make it a super pawmazing day?  Use this day as a great opportunity to unite for We, The Dogs and let freedom ring for all.

So, who needs the Constitution? Well, of-course. We, The Dogs!   Now can you say give We, The Dogs a chance?

Forget fireworks to amaze you.  I'm a Lion Dog and you're going to hear me ROAR..I mean ARF ….

Happy Birthday America and have a Woof-tastic Fourth of July.

Hail Cesar MilLan!  A TRUE DOG HERO!

6/10/2014

Dog Hero
Let’s face it.  No dog can live on bones alone.  We all need inspiration and someone to look up to if we’re to make the journey of life worth pursuing, right?

While Cesar Millan’s personal success story of overcoming adversity to achieve mega-success is undoubtly very inspiring, in doggie world the only measuring stick for real success is not the size of fame and fortunate but rather one’s capacity to make a difference.  In other words, you can be small in size but BIG in heart.  Just like me.

How many people, including celebrities, do you know who not only talk the talk but also walk the walk?   That’s because in the words of Tom Brokaw “It’s easy to make a buck; it’s tough to make a difference.“

Believe me when I tell you that having this kind of an all-consuming passion for making a meaningful difference especially in the lives of rescued dogs as displayed by Cesar is no walk in the park.  It’s nothing short of a true labor of love.  I should know because, as a rescued dog myself, I’m proudly obsessed with a similar passion.  That’s why I agreed to use my star power to help end the horrors of abuse, exploitation and homelessness faced daily by millions of dogs through ‘Fur-ever Friends: until no dog is left behind,’ a wonderful campaign organized by One Spirit, One World (www.onespiritoneworld.org).


I know that for me advocating takes up every waking hour of my life.  Well, except for the times when I have to enjoy my treats, play ball, release my inner lion humping on my toy tiger, chase the ducks, hunt for lizards, blissfully sunbath, take long naps, help my mommy run errands, meet and greet important people, attend red carpet events mingling with celebrities, posing for the pawpawrazzi. Woof, woof, don’t stop me. I’m on a roll.   But you get the picture, right?

There is an endearing adage that says: “Mi casa, su casa” (i.e. my home is your home) to express generosity of spirit.  But in doggie terms it translates into “anyone who is a friend of dogs, he/she is also my friend.”

So, for me Cesar Millan is first and foremost a dog hero and a gift to all rescued dogs.  And for that reason, I aspire to follow his footsteps too.

Now don’t you wish they all could be like Cesar Millan? 

Until we our paths crosse again my pawmazing friends! Woof woof!

Ellen De Generes and me: gay pride

There’s so much to love about Elllen De Generes.  From her good looks, amazing talents and winning personality to her generous spirit, passion for making a difference and supporting advocacy efforts for rescued dogs.  Just like me.

But the striking similarities don’t just end there. We are both gay and we make no bone about it.  There I said it!

In doggie world, life is really not that complicated at all.  You eat, sleep, play and love unconditionally, which is our doggie way of helping to make a meaningful difference.  We also live by the motto: live and let live and love the one you’re with.  This is why I’m eager to bring joy to anyone I meet regardless of gender and help end the horrors of abuse, exploitation and homelessness faced daily by millions of dogs through the wonderful ‘Fur-ever Friends: until no dog is left behind’ campaign organized by One Spirit, One World (
www.onespiritoneworld.org).

Seriously, I have a novel doggie idea.  In the spirit of focusing on what really matters – Ellen’s generosity of spirit - let’s not call one of my favorite dog heroes, Ellen De Generes.  Let’s do her justice by simply calling her Ellen The Generous.

Digg this…

From a humble doggie perspective, if somebody throws you a lifeline, why should you care about the person’s skin color, race or gender, right?  Likewise, shouldn’t you apply the same logic to love too?   And if love is color blind, shouldn’t it also be gender blind?

Until our paths cross again my pawmazing friends! Woof woof!

A SPECIAL SUMMER TREAT

6/3/2014

0 Comments

 
Hello My Pawsome Peeps!

I have been very busy with my adventures in Hollywoof in efforts to spread awareness about my campaign, but I wanted to deliver some more thoughts from my pawspective!

As many of us know, it’s almost summertime and school is about to commence. A lot of you have children that are getting restless as the summer vacation approaches, and some of you might even be the very students graduating from junior high, high school, and college, whatever it may be!  What better way to end the school year than to really help out a paw in need?  A lot of my friends want to have the same fun you will have this summer vacation.  And you can make that happen!  Whether it’s volunteering at a shelter or an adoption event, or even adopting a pooch yourself, you will be able to contribute to my greatest passion, helping out my paw siblings who just want to find their fur-ever home!

You may already know that I was a rescue pooch myself.  Since then all I can say is that even just one person can really make a difference in a dog’s life.  My ‘mom’ sure did! I am fur-ever grateful and have not been the same dog I was before, and that’s a good thing!

So what are you waiting for?  Join my campaign, “Fur-ever Friends: until no dog is left behind,” and start contributing to helping my loving furry friends find a loving and fur-ever home today! While you’re at it, adopt one too!

You and/or your kids will have the greatest summer vacation and a wonderful life together!

Until we meet again my pawmazing friends! Woof woof!
