Hot Dogs for Breakfast

All Star Dawgs              10:30am            3.16.2012   

I’d be a hypocrite if I said I’d never had hotdogs for breakfast but it’s not necessarily something I, traditionally, encourage.  After wrapping on an early morning shoot out Rob Parker’s All Star Dawgs in Detroit, Rob insisted we try the ‘merchandise,’ so to speak.  I’m pretty loyal to Koegels but Rob’s got something special here.  Sabretts are pretty much everywhere in New York but, up until our shoot, I hadn’t come across one around here.  I’ll spare you a long-winded review.  They’re good.  They’re super cheap.  And you could do a lot worse for breakfast.  Trust me on that.

Canine to Five commercial hits air

My friend Liz Blondy owns Canine to Five a doggie daycare, boarding and grooming facility in Midtown Detroit. I’ve been trying to get her to do some cable advertising. Well a couple of weeks ago she agreed to take the leap and so Velocity Cow quickly produced an ad for her that starts running on Comcast on Monday. I really hope it works. By the way, Canine to Five can pretty up your pup before the holidays. Give them a ring.
