Hey!

P1080567

Meade's dog blog is no longer called Dogging Meade. It got too burdensome fending off the idiotic Brit slang, especially face-to-face with strangers. These are nice people who feel good about nice pictures of their nice dogs. Edginess isn't apt. The new name is:

The Puparazzo!

Get there. Every day. For your smiling dogs. Not posed in somebody's house. But out and captured being dog-like, photographed by the great Puparazzo, the inimitable Meade.

Thank you.

Still need a Zeus cam. Catchin' a pass, smelling some ass and peeing on everything that doesn't move. Here's a good example...

Thank you.

You two sound like Shirley Ross and Bob Hope at the end of the tune "Thanks for the Memories" from the The Big Show.

I stand corrected - The Big Broadcast of 1938.

I have to stop by more often because I truly love the photos. They're as great as the dogs themselves.

A wonderful idea that cheers me up a lot,...

The Puparazzo also takes lovely photos of dogs posed in houses.

Signed,
Poparazza (call name "Poppy")

Cool Blog Meade.

Mr. D said...

I'm a fan -- the pictures are great.

I've been a daily visitor to Meade's 'dog blog' and the images of a day or two ago brought back memories ... one 'mixed breed' pictured is the spitting image of the dog we had when I was in high school and college, decades ago.

A much better name. I was surprised by the choice of the word 'dogging' given it's connotation as a slang word. Perhaps you need to read the dictionary a bit more...

What's better than hanging out outside with your doggy in the green grass with blue sky and puffy white clouds above?

lonetown said...

LOL. I used dogging in a different old sense too.

BTW Meade's dog pics are terrific.

Full of character and charisma.

I hope Poppy escaped any storm damage.

Irene said...

Thanks, Meade. We are fine; the damage is about three miles to the south.

re: name, need to have a naming contest:

How about 'Woof!' or Blog-A-Dog.

Bob Ellison said...

Good new name for the blog!

lemondog said...

Hey! yourself. Is that another tongue tat?

Danno said...

Like your dog pics. Also, what is it with this British slang? One of my favorite alternative bands, the Morning Benders changed their name because a morning bender is some kind of gay slur in Brit. slang.

Ann Althouse said...

The Brits don't seem to need to stop calling cigarettes "fags."

I think we should stand up to their degradation of the language that we Americans are preserving in its original grandeur, but talking to nice strangers about their nice dogs and inviting them to your website that you promise is very nice is not the best place to take that stand.

British English is slangtastic.
