Going to the dogs: Dog yoga at Twilight; “Bassets” in a contest

DOGA AT TWILIGHT: Got word from Twilight Artist Collective in The Junction that Barking Buddha Doga is headed their way; Brenda Bryan will teach a special class in what Twilight has dubbed its “lovely back gallery” on November 20th, $20, with part of the proceeds supporting Twilight and the arts. Space is limited; sign yourself and your canine companion up ASAP — you can do it right now by clicking the button at the bottom of this post on the Twilight blog. Speaking of dogs:

“BASSETS FOR OBAMA” UPDATE: We told you last week about that sweetly goofy little campaign video made by Westcrest Park Off-Leash Area volunteer steward Stevo McElhenney, starring his basset hounds Barkley and Buddy. Now we get word from Stevo that the video has made the Air America Top 10 video contest this week, with a $500 prize up for grabs – but he, Barkley, and Buddy need your vote; go here and look for the voting box in the lower right sidebar.

  5. I sent this video to a former co-worker. She was so tickled, she showed it to her co-worker. Her co-worker sniffed and said, “That’s just silly.” But as she turned back to work, she was humming, “Bassets for Obama, Obama, Obama…” LOL

  9. Sorry, “lower right sidebar” as I wrote means pretty much what Sue said. Definitely not intuitive.

  11. I must’ve been in the fog. I didn’t see where to vote; its not as low on the sidebar as I thought but in fact less than half the way down the page.
    My vote has now been entered. More votes needed!

  13. As I sitting in my shop casting my vote about twenty minutes ago I happened to look up and watched them cruise down California Ave. Now if only I could do that with lottery numbers.
