Daily News Staff Pets: May 2008 Archives
It's been awhile since I profiled a fellow worker's pet. What better way to get to know staffers than through their pets. MEET BEASTIE!!!
Columnist and Editorial writer Mariel Garza, who also shares her opinions at fellow blog Friendly Fire is a big animal lover who is owned by Beastie (love that name), a 1-year-old Newfoundland/border collie mix. I had the privilege of meeting this beautiful monster. I say monster in a loving way of course. The adjective definitely describes him because he is a BIG DOG!! I'm waiting for more pics and info about him but I do recall Mariel telling me that she rescued this beauty from somewhere.
This photo cracks me up. It causes me to sing the Twilight Zone theme song. I've got a few photos of my cats like that. In fact here's one of Hershey (DEVIL KITTY!!).

Actually I'll quote it in his own words (which are actually typed by the two-footed can opener who lives in his den as Beastie describes his owner...LOL!). Here you go:
I am Beastie, a 1-year-old Newfoundland/border collie mix from Los Angeles. This means I'm drooly and hyper, large but lithe, and smart but sweet enough to get away with it.
I love bonies and doing tricks for hotdog pieces and barking at people and wrestling with Bella, my little yellow girlfriend.
Go check out his blog and request that he update it more often.
