Camp Becky loves when we get new campers. This week, Camp Becky welcomes the dynamic duo of Blurry and Meow. These two adorable canines belong to a Creative Department colleague. These are some of the best behaved pooches to sit around the campfire. However, much to my dismay, they refused to spoon with me overnight.

Meet Blurry (who became known as Blur-bear and Blurberry during her stay at Camp Becky) and Meow (whose name became any iteration of saying “Meowmeowmeowmeowmeow” as quickly as possible).

A scene from my kitchen Friday morning:

Bars, babies, and pooches

The tri-fecta: drinking a beer while staring at a cute baby (I don’t hold babies much) and playing with an array of pooches on a bar patio. Thank you, Neon’s!

A few weeks ago, Neon’s re-opened in Over-the-Rhine, conveniently in the backyard of my office. They had a reopening celebration on Good Friday, which I attended with some colleagues and friends, accompanied by their babies and puppies. A stellar way to spend a day off, I say.

Here are a few shots of some of the event, including some sweet baby-on-pooch action.

Gus was reallllly into this lady-pup.

This pup’s expired!

Gus remembered to bring his cute.

Thank you, Neon’s for being pooch-friendly. Dog lovers and friends of Camp Becky, please ignore the nay-sayers. Pup-friendly Neon’s will be a hot spot for Camp Becky this summer.

Yup, yup, Gus Gus

Ohhhhh boy. Sound the alarms. We’ve got another one.

Imagine, if you will, a very stressful meeting at the office. The kind that makes you want to pull your hair out or punch yourself in the face. That kind. Imagine walking out of that meeting to have your stress instantly melted away by this:

Meet Gus.
Yeah, sorta like Gus Gus from Cinderella. You remember him…

As though to torture me with cute, another colleague of mine at the Creative Department adopted this tiny, adorable masterpiece of fur and puppy breath. Gus is a 6 week old golden retriever.

Have you ever seen a puppy on a tubble? No? This is what it looks like:

Perhaps cuter… a puppy sleeping on a tubble…

Office Puppy Party!

One of the things I loved about working at Barefoot Proximity was the open pooch policy. That is how I met many of the campers. When I switched jobs and came over to The Creative Department, I was flanked with pooch loving colleagues here as well, but one of our partners is allergic to pups so there is no open pooch policy.

But when the allergy-ridden boss is away, the pups will play!

Today, there are three delightful little canines gracing our wooden floors:

Penny, the adorable baby King Charles Spaniel

Chloe, the 10 year old Airdale Terrier (she does NOT look nor act like a 10 year old pooch!)

And Porter, the 2 year old Cocker Spaniel

It has been a hard day at work for these pups.

Begging for food…

Checking out everyone’s desks… (look at that BUTT! No tail!!!)

Sniffing each other…

Playing…

Following…

And, of course, napping…
