egbert + ripi: a pet’s eye view

perspective from a pigeon and a dog

dogs in san francisco

my people were talking about an article in the sf chronicle that talks about dogs in san francisco. they said the article confirmed that this is one of the most dog friendly cities. they also tell me that about paris, but it is too far for me to go there. must be a nice place if people love dogs so much.

let me tell you, san francisco is great for dogs. lots of stores let you in - even if you are a big dog. we went to the apple store a few months ago and i met a great dane that was gigantic. well, he was to me anyway. there he was shopping for computers. my people keep teasing about get me a ‘paw pilot’ - though i have to admit, i have never seen one.

as i was saying, this is a great town to be a dog. people that own stores leave out dog bowls and the retaurants and bars are great. places i have eaten [outside, of course] : la mediterranee [my own personal water bowl brought to my table], java house [the owner gives me some snacks, sometimes], left at albuquerque, cafe neibaum coppola, calzones, kate o’briens, squat and gobble, whiz burger, care abir and atlas cafe. some places even have special hooks out front for my people to hitch me up. at amoeba records, they give me a dog biscuit when i walk in the door!

and the pet stores are great. lots of them put the treats in low bins and tubs so that you can browse at your leisure. i haven’t found a bad one yet. sure, i have may favorites. you can see a few under links, but that is a whole review for another day.

it’s good to be a dog.
