Blogging bulldogs


Believe it or not, Dogs, Cats, Etc. is 2 years old today.

The very first post — called The very first post — can be seen here.

And, also believe it or not, this is the very first time (out of 694 postings) my Woyton has allowed me — Kate, with the cheekbones — to write an entry.

Woyton is usually gone during the day, and he always leaves his computer on. So I spend a little time when I'm not sleeping on the Enterwebs.

I just discovered that Martha Stewart's French bulldogs have entered the world of blogging.

That's right. The Domestic Goddess's two pooches — Francesca and Sharkey — now have a presence on the WWW.

Called The Daily Wag, the dogs' effort showcases the life they lead. Recent entries had them flying to St. Louis, Mo., for the day and a face-off with Rufus, one of Stewart's donkeys.

I think there is a bit of deception here on the part of Stewart. The blog entries, while entertaining, are labeled as being "posted by Francesca" or "posted by Sharkey."

Come now, Martha, something doesn't smell right here. And it's not just the March 15 entry where the dogs got skunked.

I talked it over with my Woyton and we both agree. Francesca and Sharkey are not really writing the blog.

This type of amusing fraud has to stop. And if the dogs are going to write about something, at least have them include some recipes for dog treats!

Signed,
Kate, with the cheekbones

P.S.: Martha, please don't anthropomorphize animals. They hate that!

Kate, Woyton might think your cheekbones are your best feature, but I beg to differ.

I believe your trim figure and gorgeous ears are your greatest assets.

Congratulations to you both on DCetc.' s long run!
