The Story thus far...
The purebred dogs of Lincoln Park all share a secret: They were once famous human beings, now reincarnated as canines. LuLu, a beautiful young beagle, recalls a life spent as Queen Elizabeth I of England, and her beloved Earl of Leicester may currently be a Cavalier King Charles spaniel named Spencer, who lives down the street and sleeps every night with LuLu's best friend, Lily, who just happens to be his crate mate. To further complicate matters, LuLu shares her home with two highly disreputable cats with intriguing past lives of their own. (Please see our archives.) The pulchritudinous little beagle also has quite a list of suitors vying for her paw. These include: Benji the bearded collie, the Labradors Rockie and Buddy, Paco the German shepherd, Tanner the cur-dog/beagle blend, Nestle the cultured French poodle, Snoop the schnauzer, Rocko the bulldog, Harmony the boxer, and a handsome mutt of mixed breed named Ziggie.
Lovely LuLu and her four-legged friends manage to find trouble behind every fire hydrant. In October they were racing around Sam Spade's San Francisco, searching for the infamous Maltese Chew Toy. (Please locate under "search" at the top of the page.) In January LuLu found herself embroiled in yet another thrilling mystery, The Hound of the Poconos. (Please see 6/11/2005 in our archives.) Now Morey the Mutt has moved into the neighborhood and signed on as a weekly blog columnist, exposing Lincoln Park after dark, while revealing a few dark secrets of his own. (Please see 12/02/2006 for Morey's first six installments.) Meanwhile, a power struggle may be brewing in idyllic Lincoln Park!
Come join the absurdity of LuLu's Desperate House Dogs. We guarantee you'll bark out at least one good laugh. You might even find yourself rolling around in the grass, hoping you'll come back as a dog the next time around.
Tail wags and licks, your blog hostess, LuLu~

Fine. I'LL comment. Personally, I believe Lulu is being perfectly silly if she sits around and pines for Rockie while he's in Iowa. I thought she was Queen Elizabeth in a past life. Would Queen Elizabeth act like that? Would Eva Peron?
Meanwhile...Fiver, Punkin, Nestle, etc., you can all write to me at this address. I'm NOT a girl who mopes. Oh, and you can get in touch too, Tanner. I'm sure I have more to offer than your current flame, Miss Gracie.
Ta-ta and arf-arf...
I picture you in leather, Asp. Booties, sweater, leash. Black leather. What a girl!
Now, now, now. The ASP is just a puppy, playing with us the way she plays with chew toys. Only a few short months ago I was her age, and know what it's like when you want to grow up fast and be taken seriously. As for Rockie, I am not pining for him, but I miss him. Meanwhile, I'm consoling myself with Buddy, Paco, Alex, Bandit, Benji, Wilbur, Max, and my dear, dear once-upon-a-time great love, Spencer.
Eat your heart out, Eva Peron~
Alex?
Alex and Morey and Bear and Nestle...and now Cory, a sizzling Akita with a tail like a question mark and a double-thick coat. We rubbed noses in the park today, and he watched with dingo intensity while I chased a few sticks~
luv.
Oh, no!
"Oh,no!" is right.
And I'll say it again: Oh, no! is right.
Lu, you repeat yourself. LOL.
Love morey! Too bad the Puppy Wrangler is back. Bets are on it's Ken.
i like the dog on the mat. waz he posed?
Morey thanks you, LaJohnna, and welcome back. Baby Hooey, I'm told that Rocket the shepherd likes to sleep that way. Weird, huh?
i'm otthe pupphy angel.
I am!
HUH? Oh, come on, Punkin. As I recall "Puppy Angel" (Angle?) was with us long before you signed on.
Or are you a Washington politician in real life and into major deception?
Since when did dogs become angels?
u dogs never do nothin but screw ardound and have a good time. i don't believe it.
Please put up more flattering pictures of Lily.
WHAT? What is wrong with the pix of Lily we've got on the blog? Do you want her posing on the cover of Playboy, or what, Karen? Oh, I'll let Lily handle this. After all, you're the president of HER fan club~
As for Baby Hooey -- S'up, dog? You unhappy? Try another blog!
Hi Karen, Its me lily. Should my feelings be hurt?
Hi, Lily....
For what it's worth, I think your pix is very cute. You know your dad wouldn't send me a bad pix of you! Sometimes I wish he would.
Only kidding, of course, my dearest, dearest OLDEST friend~
Lily,
You are the most beautiful dog my sister and I have ever seen. We would never insult you. We only like to see you at your very best. I sorry if we hurt your feelings.
Don't worry, Karen. Something tells me Lily will forgive you.
What is wrong with the pictures? They look fine to me.
Hi Karen. its me Lily. Its ok. You are still my favorite admirer. When spring finally arrives maybe my dad can get pretty pictures of all my friends and me.
Come on, Karen -- toss those bouquets~
You are a bad girl, Lulu, but I know you mean it in fun. I didn't want to hurt Lily's feelings. She is always caring and kind.
Dogs suck.
Go tell it to a doberman, firbwal!
Dogs suck.

Firbawl,
Clean up your act!
Lily,
Is that dog really your aunt?
hi Karen, Its me Lily. You better ask Lulu.
Karen, Karen -- Surely you're not suggesting that it's Lily's uncle?
Hi Karen, its me Lily again. I'm not saying but if you look closely at the pictire I predict you will guess who it really is!
Lily,
You mean it really IS your uncle?
were having pups again.
You've got a fast changing blog here, lulu. A fortune teller and a werewolf named Morey? Punkin left too soon.
We're just getting started, Fiver. Stick around~
Madame S: I am an exquisitely beautiful King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. I am also brilliant. In a past life I was Mary Queen of Scots. In another I was Eva Peron. In yet another I was Lassie. How long will it take for the world to recognize how very special I am and bow to my wishes?
Yours sincerely, The Asp
Madam Spirea,
Will I ever be lucky enough to meet the asp?
Asp,
Some crazy gypsy -- I think it was Bazzazz the Banana Slipper -- once said that Pride goes before a fall in a supermarket (and then a quickie lawsuit). I'm not sure what he was talking about -- nobody ever was -- but you have a tremendously high opinion of yourself and very little humility.
Grow up and get some, or go to Scotland and raise an army -- whatever works for you, dear.
You were weaned way too early, weren't you, Fiver?
Awwww, poor Fiver.
How mahny pups will weget?
Ken, I see four puppies. Try to find good homes for them.
thank you.
Seven chows with attitude.
Lulu is unhappy tonight. She has not seen her boyfriend and is very upset.
And I thought I was such a good girl tonight, Aunt Marta. I didn't throw up once or even attack the cats~
The Eye On The Park:
A perfect Saturday morning, at least for a Hen Fest. Seen in the park: Miss Gracie, looking for Tanner. "He's fast becoming a bad-boy legend," she commented. "He's James Dean in East of Eden. He's the Leader of the Pack. I'm his -- hooked and tethered."
Daisy, the Westie from Centerville, said she was just looking for a few squirrels to chase.
LuLu was there, searching for Rockie, but instead ran into her friend Judah (henceforth known as "Judy"), who gave her a romp for her kibble.
Finally a male showed up: Corky the Yorkie~
"Have you seen Rockie?" LuLu asked, and he replied that he hadn't.
"How about my new leash on life, Tanner?" quizzed Miss G.
"Sorry," he replied, and Gracie growled at him.
"She wants to bensil me!" cried Corky in his cute Yorkshire accent. "I'm off."
"I'm peeved," stated Gracie as she and LuLu settled down to share a stick. "Do you think Tanner's found somebody else?"
LuLu snapped her part of the stick in two, looked pensive, but didn't reply.
Boys....where ARE you????????
THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN
Good site! Great dogs. I'll fave rave.
Thanks, Frenchie. Are you, by chance, a French bulldog?
Tanner is questioning where everyone went tonight. Especially, Miss Gracie, although I like to refer to her as Ellie Mae. That is so sexy! You'll find out I had a little fling with LuLu tonight. Nothing serious, just a tussle. Honest, we had to tussle as it was so cold! Ask Paco!
I think you doth protest too much, Tanner. You did the doggie waltz with Lulu and now you want to try and get out of it. My baby boy would never treat you that way, Ellie May, or you either, Lulu.
hustle & flo. Its hard out here for a pimp.
How did you know?
It had to be, Frenchie. It only followed that you'd be a poodle or a bulldog~
Well, possibly a bichon...
OK, call it a good guess.
LuLu,
You aiming to get my job, kid?
Lulu, did you write one of those scam beagle books?
They're not DISREPUTABLE. They're just sweet little kitties!
Charlie, Ringo, Carmen & Lola
LuLu's out on a date, honey. I'm the one who's home alone on a Friday night, thinking of peeing on the bed. What scam beagle books are you talking about or have you been chewing yopo seeds?
Firbawal is the one who is disreputable.

This is a rather fun and goofy blog, well done!
Thanks, Patrick -- you're in the will~
Dogs suck.
So do you, Firbawl.
There is a cat terrorizing a town in Connecticut. He even attacked the Avon Lady! Coujld this be u, Firbawl?
We understand that Paco may be heading south to Cincinnati for a while, Jimmy, which means you might be on your own. Look at it this way, with both Rockie and Paco out of the way...LuLu, Miss Gracie, the Asp, Lola, Belle, Mags, Sony, and all those other cute female puppies you met in the park today will be YOURS. ALL YOURS, Jimmy Dean.
And since when did YOU need a mentor? I mean, you were so cool in GIANT.
A question, though -- where IS Rockie?
Hi mommacat, its me, Lily. I love your website even if it is all kitties. Do you paint pretty pictures of dogs too? Like maybe of Spencer and me?
I'd like to see a picture of Firbawl!
Dear Lily and Spencer,
Of course... I can paint anything that moves, as long as it's photo doesn't have red eyes and the picture is in color, clear, and at least a 5X7.
Yours truly,
Mommacat
Paint one for Karen while you're at it.
Hey! I've seen some of Momma Cat's work, and she's terrific. A super artist. She would probably be able to make Firbawl look like a cuddly tabby~
Dogs suck.
Expand your vocabulary, Firbawl....before something CATastrophic happens to you.

What's with this cat?
I think Firbawl has chronic rabies~
I think Firbawl is Ken.
Firbawl's not I.
Lily,
Please get in touch with me immediately. We need to talk!
Dogs suck.
So do cats named Firbawl.
Whatever happened to Kittimar or Momma Cat? They seemed halfway canine friendly~
