It’s amazing what cruises through our "back yard" the Puget Sound. This photo was taken just a few moments ago of HMCS Vancouver (FFH 331).

To the Owner of the Brown Dog
March 7, 2008 by 1 Comment
I am thankful your pup had a phone number that I could call to find you this morning. 
I don’t know what we would have done since I had an appointment I was getting ready for this morning (sorry I didn’t have time to chat).
Our pug really enjoyed your pup and our cats were properly freaked out. 🙂 It was a very fun way to start our Friday (seriously).
It all worked out well. Score another one for BDB helping to connect humans back to their pets.
Just a reminder, if you’re missing or found a pet, please send a photo with your contact info. We’re happy to post it here.
Bikes on Sidewalks
March 7, 2008 by Leave a Comment
I’m always kind of surprised when I see a perfectly capable adult riding their bike on a sidewalk when they could be on Beach Drive. Come on folks, we have sharrows!
Beach Drive is loaded with hidden driveways and plenty of pedestrians too. If a sidewalk-biker believes they are safer than being on the road, I beg to differ.
The nice lady pictured here apologized as she blew past me and my dog last weekend. I can totally understand being on the sidewalk with your bicycle…if you have training wheels.
Ahoy Out There!
