The latest meme floating around right now is The Harlem Shake, a song that has sparked a series of dance videos to an instrumental song produced by the artist Baauer. And since I’m never one to miss out on a meme, I decided to do my own rendition.
I bet you are mad impressed with my dance skills right!? I’ve been practicing if you can’t tell.
Anyone else do their own rendition of the Harlem Shake? Let’s see it! Post your favorite ones in the comment section! 
The stars, the lights, the cameras, and the red carpet – The Oscars was on last night – and of course I was in attendance. Ok well sort of (from my couch at least), but that’s the very best seat in the house anyway.
Just because I didn’t get to walk the actual red carpet doesn’t mean I didn’t dress the part.
I wore the always fashionable Silly Buddy Bowtie – and even had a chance to get a little primping done.
I got my hair did!
Admittedly my hair dresser isn’t quite up on the most fashionable trends, but I rocked that mullet anyway.
The oscars provided me with a full night of entertainment as I got down with all the singing & dancing.
It’s almost as if I was actually there!
I also had my eyes peeled all night for one of my celebrity pals, Crusoe (you may remember that we both dressed up as Wile E. Coyote this past year for Halloween).
Crusoe apparently won an Oscar (meyer-weiner) for Best Celebrity Dog (hello, where was my nomination?) – but since the Academy Awards went on well past my bed time I just couldn’t stay awake to see his acceptance speech.
I’m sure he just rambled off a list of thank yous that included his squeaky toys and celebrity stylists – so I gather I probably didn’t miss much. *wink*
Even though I didn’t catch an actual glimpse of Crusoe on the red carpet, I have my own speculations as to why Kristen Stewart walked the carpet with crutches (run-in with a shorter than average celebrity??? hummmm Crusoe?). We may never know for sure!
Next year I hope to be out on the red carpet myself – and I’ve already started planning my outfit! I’m thinking a neon yellow tux would really make me jump out in the crowd!
So what about you, what was your favorite part of the oscars this year?

Since I’ve been laying a little low lately (while mom’s recovering from knee surgery), I decided it would be fun to share some of my adorably cute photos from my puppy years. I didn’t have a blog back then, so these photos haven’t seen the light of day in quite some time. But have no fear, it’s Throwback Thursday time, and I’ve dug through my archives and found some super sweet puppy pictures to brighten your day!
As you can see, even at a couple months old I was quite the athletic guy! It’s no wonder my muscles are huge now. And check out my spots! I bet you didn’t know that I’m actually a red dapple, and at certain times of the year (when the sun hits me just right) my spots are much more visible.
I hope you enjoyed my #throwbackthursday – perhaps I’ll have to make this a regular feature on the blog!
I decided that today needs to be a Super Hero Day! Because what’s more fun than a Super Hero Day?
So I rounded up a few of my recent Super Hero videos on Vine (you can follow me @kyleydiluigi) for your enjoyment today! I hope it makes your day extra Super!

Happy Super Hero Day everyone!
Toys! It’s one of my favorite subjects, and when you’re a dog you can never have enough of them! Since I have quite a few things to play with around the house, mom is constantly combating my clutter by putting my toys into baskets and totes.
I like to think I’m a pretty stylish guy, so when it comes to storing my toys I don’t just settle for any old basket. My most recent stylish purchases have come from the Land of Nod.
Not only are they fun to look at, but since they are soft I don’t have to worry about injuring my neck when getting out my favorite toys.
Of course my toys looked like they were having lots of fun in my new baskets, so I couldn’t just stand by and let them have all the fun!
It wasn’t as exciting as I had imagined in my head.
But it’s good to know that there is plenty of room for lots and lots more toys. (you hear that mom!?)
You can fetch your own toy storage totes from The Land of Nod.
Disclosure: I was not paid or perked to share these products, I just simply thought my new bins were oh-so-fun.
Last week I celebrated the hallmark holiday (v-day) at home with my family. Curled up on the couch, with a small token gift or two, it was the perfect way to celebrate the day!
I gave out tons of free kisses, and mom and dad got me a few small items to show how much they care.

A bottle of shampoo & conditioner from my Friday Fetch Feature, Organic Oscar, and a bag of healthy cheese and bacon treats!
Thanks mom and dad, you’re the best! But do you mind if I share my shampoo with Trooper? He’s much stinkier than I am!
You all know I love a good coat, especially during the cold winters here in Pennsylvania. So when one of the blogs I read (Oscar Ate My Muffin) posted about a pet coat that they absolutely love, I knew I just had to check it out.
The Obtrack coats were designed to protect a dog’s important muscle groups, thus keeping them from injury. Their coats have multiple points of adjustments to tailor the fit to each individual dog, and they even come in Dachshund sizes! These highly breathable, but exceptionally warm coats are nothing but stylish looking – and I certainly have added one to my wish list!
Last two images are from Oscar Ate My Muffin.

Yay, it’s finally here! Valentine’s Day!
Today is the day to share your love with those you care about (although you should make it a point to do that every day!).
I’ve always thought Valentine’s Day is great, especially when you’re wearing rose colored glasses!
I can see things so much clearly now…..
….like how especially good looking you are! *wink* *wink*
But seriously I totally Woof You! Thank you so much for reading my blog, friending me on Facebook, and leaving me nice messages day after day. It makes a dog feel oh-so-loved.
I’m blushing just thinking about all the love!
And because today is Valentine’s Day, I figured it was high time I updated my viral Valentine’s Day Photo, that was taken the very first year I had started my Facebook page, to something even better!
Free Kisses circa 2010

I hope you have a very LOVE -LY day….even without rose colored glasses! xoxo Happy Valentine’s Day!
A few weeks ago I announced the launch of new notepads and fun little doxie pens in my shop, which you can see HERE. Well, mom and I decided why have only two designs when you can have three!
So with a little inspiration from yours truly, we came up with the Hot Dog notepad!
Mom drew the little hot dog shape, which by the way looks so so yummy!
Even the little doxie pen looks oh so fun to play with, but I’m still perplexed at how he can snap in half like that!
You can fetch your own hot dog notepads and pens in my etsy shop HERE. Maybe you can even mail me a love note!
