Yenta is a diabetic dog who is needs to find her way home. It is apparent from her photo that she has a microchip. (You see the yellow collar tag? That is from a Home Again Microchip). This means she will most likely find her way home if she is taken to a veterinarian and scanned or to an animal shelter. Hopefully her owners registered her microchip with their contact information….

This holiday season one of the items on our wishlist was a new bed for the girl. After a few accidents (shh, don’t tell her I told you she is a bed-wetter), and serious bone-burying into the old, round bed, it had nothing left to give. I really mean nothing! The old stuffed cedar-lined ball was in the trash long ago and it was replaced by several blankets. A most lumpy arrangement.
The new dog bed did not arrive as hoped this holiday, so the quest began for a suitable dog bed (a cuddler or nester-style bed) that would not break the bank.![]()

Here was the winner for us (cost: $30, from Target):
Can you tell if she likes it or not? She already broke it in! And by that, I mean she chewed a hole in the pillow.

On a cozy block of 76th Street just off Broadway you can find a new pet supply called Pet Central. I am pleasantly surprised to find that they both carry the dog food I buy and they have the lowest price around! This isn’t to say that all of their prices are lowest on every item, but I can tell you that the service is nice and they have free delivery too (in their area). This Pet Central is the newest of their 5 locations in Manhattan (website currently under re-construction).
Can you imagine shopping in such a crowded store (see photo)? Well, if not, you are not looking for pet supplies in NYC! Pet Central is at 235 West 76th Street. Phone: 212-712-1707

When we spotted little Mika in Prospect Park today, there was something extra special about her. Who would have known she’s already had a little internet fame via Daily Puppy?! Even if we are a little late to introduce her to the world, it was nice to meet Mika nonetheless.
