Here's a complete turnaround. Former cops reporter Kathianne Boniello, who would start climbing walls if there wasn't a drug bust or killing or fire in the city for a few days, has found a new calling -- as a canine fashionista!
I'm not kidding. She recently bought a really cute ensemble for Roxy, the dog she shares with her boyfriend, Dylan.
In Boniello's words:
"Whatever people have been using to melt the ice in my neighborhood lately, it hurts Roxy's feet. She's been limping when we walk and it makes me so sad! So I finally went out and got her some winter boots.
I'm not sure they fit correctly - our first foray outside, she walked funky, then kind of sideways/diagonal for a while, and then two of them fell off and I didn't know it until we were down the block :-) But, we put them back on and seemed to get the hang of it after a while and there was no more limping.
She looks kind of snazzy, huh?"
Seriously, dude, there's possibility of minting money here. Have you considered becoming a pet fashion consultant? After seeing Roxy's jazzy ensemble, I'm sure you'll have no problems attracting clients and then you can charge them to dress up their pets ...
Just sayin'.
It probably will pay better than journalism. But then, doesn't everything?
BTW, for more on Roxy's ensemble, visit Michael Woyton's blog on PoJo. I'm going to try and link it here - hope it works!

We may think it's "snazzy" but all the other dogs are pointing and snickering. - Michael W.
ReplyDeleteOr, my dear, they're looking at her and going "why isn't she limping around in pain on three feet like the rest of us??"
