Paws on the Streets of Allston

Cody and me

Anonymous loveable canine

Allston, the college student-ridden underbelly of Boston, is crawling with dogs. It's one thing I love about living here, even though it has its downsides, like Solo cup street decor and loud, screaming drunk people at all hours of the night on most evenings.

Above are pictures of two great dogs I met in Allston. The first one, which I forgot the name of (yikes -- sorry!) was so sweet, as was Cody, my friend Jess's dog (the big black one). There's even a photo of me hugging the Codester (what a fluffy mess of love).

Puppy Love

Welcome to the Boston Dog Blog! If you live in Beantown (or not) and have a passion for pooches, you're in the right place. Here I'll share all my dog-related findings, photos and more.

To start out with, I would like to introduce Lucy, the 10-week-old black lab puppy that my friend Luke adopted two days ago. Lucy was saved from a hoarder in Alabama and sent to Boston, where she and her siblings were warmly welcomed into the arms of Bostonian dog lovers. To find out more about this horrible problem that is all too common, check out the Animal Hoarding News & Info blog.

Enjoy Lucy's cuteness. She is so small -- her head is the size of a large potato. Also, sorry for the audio in the second video -- my roommate is commenting on Lucy's owners tan-ness. A little out of context.
