Happy New Year's Eve!

Tonight's the night.  Big anticipation.  Most of us will be getting together with friends and family to usher in the new year.  Some of us will be randomly hoping to hook up.  Others, going to sleep early.  Whatever you decide to do, make it safe, okay?

Ever see the movie "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective?"  The one with Jimmy Carrey?  I did and I thought it was awesome.  Even the sequel.  The reason I ask is because we happened to find an article that features a real pet detective and thought you'd find it interesting.

CLICK HERE to check it out.

Also, we want you to get your calendar out.  Whether its old-school or electronic, get it out, okay?  We'll wait.  Not all day, though.  C'mon!  Got it?  Okay, mark this date down: January 18th, 2011.  Got it?  Excellent!


We're going to be having a big comedy fundraiser on the 18th and we want to see you there.  Its going to be a lot of fun and will help make a lot of needy dogs happy, so please do what you can to be there.

CLICK HERE for details on the event and how to get tickets.

Okay, 2010 is almost in the can.  Let's make 2011 count big time, guys.  Lets make a difference.  Have fun tonight, but be smart and be safe.

See ya next year....

Michael Vick: Presidents Praise? Huh?!?

Good morning, everyone.

I have good news....its going to get warmer.  Seriously...its going to be in the 40's in the next few days.  Goodbye snow, you bastard. 

Sorry...had to get that off my chest.  I like to get my emotions out.  Speaking of expressing emotion...I have a video for you to watch.  It involves our President, Mr. Obama, and some things said about Michael Vick. 

Bernadette Pauley will be on our next comedy fundraiser (January 18th @ Gotham Comedy club in NYC)! Watch her here argue on fox news about whether obama was right about commending the eagles about vick.  CLICK HERE TO VIEW VIDEO.

What are your thoughts on what was discussed?  We'd love to know.

Also, try to make our upcoming Stewie get together coming up on January 6th.  For details, CLICK HERE.

TTYS,

Drinking for Stewie! (say what?!?)

Good morning, near afternoon, everyone.

Besides getting loads of Christmas cheer and some crazy food passed my way this Christmas, I also received a gift that I'm unfortunately unable to return...a massive head cold and sinus infection.

That being said, I apologize for the lateness on the blog, but hey, I'm a trooper.  Snow, nor sleet, nor immense congestion can stop the plight of Stewie, so get ready for a sweet announcement.

If you like fun, good company, and enjoying some choice spirits, you're gonna love this event.  Sound good?  What if I told you that your patronage would be aiding in our mission to help dogs in need?  Even better, right?

I'm glad we're on the same page.  Its like magic or something.

Here's the Event:

Obama and the Eagles (not a new folk band name)

Morning all. 

I have an up to date weather report for you.  It's cold.  There's a lot of snow on the ground.  Its not going anywhere.  There you go.

Seriously though, Harris (founder of Stewie to the Rescue), posted this article on our Facebook page, but in case you missed it, I thought I should put up a link for you. 

Its involves our president, Mr. Obama, and a certain call he placed to the Eagles.  You can view it HERE.

What are you thoughts on this?  We'd love to know.

TTYS,

Stewie

Jack Frost has a sense of humor....

Good morning, everyone.

 If you live in the NYC area then by now you'd likely know that we've got a bit of snow on the ground this morning.

Snow.  Used to be the best thing in the world when you were a kid.  It closed school, it gave you an excuse to throw snowballs at people, and some would say it's "pretty."


As a grumpy adult, my opinion of snow has significantly changed.  Its cold, it prevents me from getting where I need to go, and I have to break my back shoveling it because I don't want to get sued when someone falls in front of my house.



Another challenge snow presents is by restricting your dog's mobility.  Now we all know dogs come in all shapes, sizes, and breeds, but some of the smaller dogs are really effected by the elements, especially several feet of snow.

We've been posting tips as how to safeguard your dogs from the elements (see prior blog entries) and urge all you dog owners out there, especially those will small dogs, to get out there with your pooch, shovel, and make their lives easier.  Keep an extra special eye out.  Jack Frost has been naughty.

Stay Warm,

Damn it, Santa, not a blizzard!

Morning to all.  Hope everyone enjoyed the holidays (and hope you still are if they're still going on for you).

For me, the last two days have consisted of hardcore family get-togethers and eating an abundance of food.  Way too much food.  Italians don't play. 

If you are ever invited to an italian family's house for dinner, pace yourself.  Never, ever, clean your plate quickly or you will be subject to berating and peer pressure to have more.  Even though I'm italian, I do often overlook this rule and still for whatever reason think I'll get out unscathed.  The very definition of insanity.  Too much food. 

Anyhow, if you've been listening to the weather reports in the NYC area, you'll know that we are theoretically due to get bombarded with a snow storm.  Generally, I take weather people's predictions with a grain of salt, but they are barking very hard about this one.

So, with the impending weather, I found a safe guard list to protect your pets from the nasty weather.  You can check out the article HERE.

Stay warm and stay safe.

TTYS,

Is My Dog Sick?



Morning, everyone.  We're bearing down on Christmas and I know many people are scrambling for last minute gifts, getting their dinner menus together, and taking the next flight out of town. 

Bottom line:  everyone seems to be busy, even if you're not necessarily celebrating the holiday.  There's a rush of busy in the air.

With this kind of mode, we can very well overlook things in our immediate environment.  One such thing that we must pay close attention to, is our dog's health.

I know our furry friends do take up a good deal of our time, but sometimes if you're not paying attention, they could be trying to tell you something...like they're sick.

What am I saying?  Take a break and check out your dog.

I found an article that highlights some signs that would indicate that your dog is under the weather and I wanted to share it with you HERE.

Check it out.  Keep your eyes open.  Love each other.  Love your pooches.  Love your holiday cookies...not too much though...you still need to fit in your pants.

Happy Holidays,

- Stewie

Take a look...

Good morning, everyone.  Hope you're all having an awesome day. 

First off, want to thank the fine folks who came down to the Comic Strip Live last night for our comedy fundraiser.  We appreciate your help, but we still have a lot of work to do, so please tell your friends...tell you family...tell your co-workers...even tell a complete stranger by approaching them in a non-threatening way identifying yourself as a friend.

Anyhow, thanks again.

For those who might not have visited our site lately...shame on you...I've attached a link of some means of helping us with our mission and some pups who desperately need your help.  Click here to view.
