As downtown dog owners we already know the joys and difficulties of having <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">DTWN</span> dogs. Now the secret is out and it can only be a good thing. <br /><br /><a href="http://downtownnews.com/articles/2008/12/01/news/opinion/12-01-08-edit02.txt">Adventures in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Petsitting</span></a><br />Life Downtown Changes When You Borrow a Dog<br />by Kathryn <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">Maese</span><br /><br />DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES - My fling with Dexter started a few weeks ago. We'd been on several walks through Downtown together. Some were early morning romps that were playful and sweet, while others lingered late in the evening when the lights of City Hall cast lovely shadows on the grass below.<br /><br />A mix of Shepherd, Akita and Chow, he's a gorgeous specimen with silken <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">blonde</span> hair, warm, amber-colored eyes, and an imposing presence that makes people step aside and stare in appreciation.To be honest, I got a bit of an inferiority complex walking next to him. Not an outing went by when he didn't receive at least half a dozen compliments. He was extremely popular with the ladies, especially the elderly women in Little Tokyo who gushed over him like nothing I've ever seen. Even the construction workers at the new police headquarters whistled at him as we passed.He's quite the alpha male. But most just call him a dog.Dexter belongs to my brother, who's studying at Stanford at the moment and needed a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">petsitter</span> for a few days. I agreed to take care of Dexter partly because he's so easygoing and partly because I wanted to experience what it is like to have a pet in the city. For about a year I tried to wheedle my husband into agreeing to a dog. But now that we have an 8-month-old, we have precious little time.This seemed like the perfect way to see how the pet-owning side of Downtown lives. According to the Downtown Center Business Improvement District, nearly half of the new wave of Downtown residents have dogs. The Central City is extremely liberal when it comes to having a pet, and only a handful of residential buildings don't allow animals. But I've often heard complaints about the lack of pet-friendly amenities like dog parks and green spaces for Fido to run off-leash or do their business in peace.My first few days with Dexter passed quickly, and we developed an easy routine of 6:30 a.m. walks, then a break after lunch to get a cup of coffee and a long stroll in the evening. My husband took him out one last time before bed, often with our neighbor's dog, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Yao</span>, whom he befriended. It was a great break from the computer and a way to get some exercise, and I swear I had lost a few pounds by the time he left.I immediately saw the social aspect of having a dog in the city. I ran into my neighbors more often and finally spoke to people I'd seen dozens of times but never said a word to. Strangers would come right up and pet Dexter, and we'd invariably strike up a conversation about his breed or what kind of dog they had.<br /><br />Other Downtown dog walkers generously shared a few choice spots for taking Dexter to relieve himself, or flashed a friendly smile as our canines sniffed each other. I began to learn which dogs were not well behaved, which owners didn't pick up their poop and which routes to take. I usually traveled north on Spring Street past the L.A. Times parking garage, where a strip of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">groundcover</span> has become a makeshift dog park, and then made my way up to City Hall and into the park on the south lawn.Nothing personal against our lawmakers, but Dexter had a thing for taking his business right to the steps of City Hall, especially if there was an urgent matter on his agenda. After a while, I started to think maybe it was his way of staging a silent protest, urging our representatives to do something about the lack of parks.<br />Our route took us through Little Tokyo and looped back around on Second Street past the wide promenade of trees and landing of sparse grass littered with evidence of frequent use. We'd pass the Higgins Building, where we saw a constant stream of Chihuahuas, weenies, pits and mutts, then back home.One thing I liked about having Dexter with me when I took the baby out in her stroller was the added sense of security. In addition to his <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">blonde</span> good looks, he's nearly as big as a horse (okay, a small pony). He lets kids jump all over him and pull on his hair, but there's the sense that you don't want to mess with him or his human companions. I felt like I could walk more freely Downtown, and even later at night by myself.Thanks to the explosion of new residents and their dogs, there's no shortage of pet services Downtown, from Lofty Dog to Bark Avenue to Pussy & Pooch. When it came time to give Dexter a bath, I made an appointment at <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Muttropolitan</span> in Little Tokyo's Honda Plaza. They have some of the most affordable rates for a dog his size, and he came out looking like a fluffy, blow-dried rock star.By about the sixth day I was starting to see just how much work a dog takes, and I was ready for a break. There were a few times in the evening when I was so tired that walking a dog was the last thing I wanted to do. I thought about how nice it would be just to sit somewhere while Dexter ran around. Some buildings have a rooftop dog park or dog run, but many don't.I wondered how the professionals do it, the walkers I've seen around the neighborhood with six dogs. I called David <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">Cerwonka</span> from Walk Fido, a 3-year-old Downtown walking service, to get his thoughts.<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">Cerwonka</span> says it's simple, really. The urban landscape is one big adventure for dogs, who instinctively want to roam for long distances, explore new places and experience a satisfying sense of exhaustion and accomplishment at the end of the day.It makes sense. The same can be said of all of us, I guess.<br /><br />Contact Kathryn <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">Maese</span>Dog Walk Downtown L.A.http://www.blogger.com/profile/13174195054058223190noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181792220787852487.post-26673745640620940092008-10-20T21:47:00.000-07:002008-10-20T22:16:16.136-07:001st Year Anniversary Party was a Success!!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4HNH0pxhhT-YaqZ4Iwd6fw3BVtxu31hXI4nE2To14zIYdzJAtLKyoWS2E6B0szpXtLxOHCOpwcp5M3AKa2sIEN0uTdWyYz8rLtqV6Qlxyes-s6oX5WOHRoki1DZuVPUaKQNUHOu0nfFgk/s1600-h/IMG_0402.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4HNH0pxhhT-YaqZ4Iwd6fw3BVtxu31hXI4nE2To14zIYdzJAtLKyoWS2E6B0szpXtLxOHCOpwcp5M3AKa2sIEN0uTdWyYz8rLtqV6Qlxyes-s6oX5WOHRoki1DZuVPUaKQNUHOu0nfFgk/s400/IMG_0402.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5259467299169461154" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div>Two weeks ago on Oct. 8, 2008 over two dozen downtown residents and their dogs celebrated our 1st Year Anniversary.

To be more specific, we appropriated the south lawn of City Hall and made it our informal dog park. At night the views from City Hall of downtown are tremendous, not to mention all that grass. Yes, a few <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">rabble-rousers </span>went off-leash and romped around <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">untethered</span>.<br /><br />This brought us to question:<br /><br />1) Why can't we just bring our own gates and erect a temporary dog park on the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">south lawn</span> or any open city space?<br /><br />2) Where can we go next for our walk with so much grass?<br /><br />As for the first questions, stay tuned as we ask City Hall; for the latter, please send us your suggestions of where we can go next on our upcoming walks.<br /><br />Until then, be safe and enjoy the walk.<br /><br />Next walk:<br />Wednesdat March 12, 2008<br />6:00 pm Pershing Square.<br />Route: TBADog Walk Downtown L.A.http://www.blogger.com/profile/13174195054058223190noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181792220787852487.post-72415949065790249732008-01-20T17:15:00.000-08:002008-01-21T22:53:57.040-08:00January Dog Walk Downtown L.A.It was a treat to begin the New Year with new and old friends for the January Dog Walk.

Dog Walk. The merry band of downtown residents first gathered at Pershing Square to share their stories of living downtown. People from all over downtown attended the walk; Little Tokyo, Historic Core, South Park and the Financial District. After a short meet and greet at the park the dogs took to the streets and headed to a farmers market at the Santee Village. While traffic was at a virtual standstill the dogs breezed along 7th Street leaving frustrated suburban residents making their way home wondering what all the commotion was. After an hour later both tired dogs, and their hungry owners parted ways agreeing to meet again at next months dog walk.<br /><div><div></div><br /><div>For all the photos see our "Photo Shop" link.</div><div></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6D1YIYeQMmMHf_9RYs6Nj6A2Is5E2Q-WPpxc-8u3JiwWUKGIXAcc_4z153HyTvbITQUl1B81EyOH-_sjBX_d4APZ7TpY2_BQNxLtlgvMryonCrC9lh212funkUN9aiyL-x-uqg8fRbZ07/s1600-h/Dog+Walk+Downtown+L.A.+11-14-07+003.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132947308529392642" style="FLOAT: left;
