If Dr. Frankenstein were creating a dog, this is what he
might end up with. Standing 30 inches
at the shoulder, Frankenpoodle is a giraffe in a dog suit.
I got my start writing comedy. Frankenpoodle got his start as the klutzy
giant of the litter. No breeding for him. Instead, he became a canine muse. Together, we have slogged through eleven
novels; me at the keyboard, him on the worn brown chaise beside me. Both
of us snarfing snacks and looking forward to walk time.
Damn straight, this dog inspires me. Toker, the big black poodle-cross with the
Mohawk hairdo in The Goddaughter’s Revenge, steals the show. He came back for a cameo in The Artful Goddaughter.
But that’s only the beginning. A vigilante group leader who also manages the
local Humane Society? Look for Del and
her dogs in THE B TEAM, a madcap
comedy currently in the works.
This one’s for Frankenpoodle.
Lovely picture. Worthy of a great muse.
ReplyDeleteHe looks dreamy, doesn't he. And content in his role. Of course, the snacks are good.
