Likes: Very people oriented. Pita loves to be fed with a fork. Pita will almost always during a walk; stop to smell the flowers on her path. She truly enjoys flower aromas. Loves to chase skateboards, bikes & squirrels. Must sleep on the bed and cuddle!
Pet-Peeves: loud noise
Favorite Toy: large stuffed Pikachu & dad...especially Jake...loves to lick him to pieces!
Favorite Food: MERRICK's All Natural Gourmet & CALIFORNIA NATURAL kibbles. AND, Bob cooks boneless chicken breasts/thighs just for me & I love carrots, strawberries, avocados and gourmet steak everytime we go to restaurants. I love to eat daddy's eggs and toast.
Favorite Walk: Everywhere. Most favorite place is the beach. Pita loves to dig a hole at the shoreline, lay in it and play tag with the waves.
Best Tricks: Loves watching the world through mirrors. Pita has quite a selection of mirrors to choose from throughout the house and always lays in spots wherein she can see our bed, kitchen area, front door through mirrors in different rooms. Most unusual trait!
Arrival Story: Thirteen years ago (1996), PITA was a rescue; or should I say; she adopted me. When I met her, I took her leash to walk her. She immediately tangled the leash around my legs and plopped herself down on my feet and began to smile and pant! That was it! I belonged to her! I was adopted by (renamed - PITA ).
Bio: Pita is mascot and inspiration for our non profit 501c3; People In The Arts Foundation, Inc. (Pita Foundation) The website is currently undergoing a face lift and mission statement re assignment AS WE ARE TRANSITIONING OUR MISSION STATEMENT TO WORK MORE EXTENSIVELY WITH ANIMAL RIGHTS, RESCUE AND FOSTERING. Making a donation to this non profit will assure that films of relevence to our society will be a matter OF FACT TODAY and not lost in the backpages of yesterday! Feel free to contact us regarding any donation inquiries and we shall be happy to discuss our mission and how you can contribute and be a part of our endeavors! Our dog PITA, works as a Service Animal and is a natural cure for all who come into contact with her. PITA seems to have an ability by her presence, to change and transfer negative energy into something positive. As the guardian of this very unique creature, I can attest to her natural/holistic influences on the lives she has touched from children to seniors. Our lives belong to her whims. I do not believe in magic; however, I do believe in the power of love and physical reinforcement. This unique animal has the ability to make anyone in contact with her make their situation better and easier by virtue of her contact with the individual. THIS Dog, PITA, is a unique creature ~ and a "God Send". PITA has been instrumental in bringing children out of severe depression, given seniors a reason to smile again; and effective in her pre warning abilities with heart patients. Pita has very recently, November 2007 gone 90% deaf. Yet she continues to do her job and I believe her other senses were heightened as a result of this. She is to be loved and admired forever. Only God truly knows how much our Pita is loved and respected!

The Last Forum I Posted In: Have you ever ate your dogs food
Special Skill/Ability: About six months after PITA acquired me, it came to my attention that she got distressed when around a human about to undergo angina/heart attack. She was consistent in this. She was certified by the State of California as an Assistance Dog. And just for good measure, on August 3, 2007 Pita was evaluated by the American Kennel Club and received her Canine Good Citizen Certificate and tag. We are very proud parents of Pita!
Travel: Because of her certification, PITA travels on planes, trains etc. She goes to the opera, movie & studio sets, restaurants; everywhere. The public is certainly getting an education in Service Animals due to her presence all over LA and her travels.
NEW ARTIST: I just have to bark at everyone about my new DOGGIE- pal JESSIE and her daddy - JARED. Jared is an exceptionally gifted artist and has just finished an OIL PORTRAIT of me! Wow...you can check out his incredible work at www.jaredseff.com Can I get more famous than this? Jared, and his dog Jessie supervising, paints people and pet portraits. Even PAUL McCARTNEY and PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON got their portraits done by Jared! I am humbled! Barks and Paws to everyone...look for MY portrait by Jared in my Photo Gallery. WOW! When your parents decide to get YOUR portrait done by JARED, be sure to tell him - PITA sent you - (www.jaredseff.com) Remember, a portion of the proceeds from each portrait go to Animal Rescue funding a project of PITA Foundation.

MY message to ALL song..Take a Listen...:
A Christmas Message from our hearts!:
MY new SISTER: A few days ago, my dads and I went to the Harbor Shelter in San Pedro, California and through a friend, found the most wonderful, loving older Chow Chow/German Shepard mix one could ever imagine. I am sorry for whoever abandoned her but we are thrilled that she was held off the REDLIST for euthanization as she is just a brilliant, loving dog that is the perfect companion and friend for our Pita and ourselves. We have torn up our Christmas list as we got what no one could ever give us...the Gift of Life through a tremendous 4 legged creature who absolutely abounds in love! Our message to all is: Adopt! It will fill your heart more than any thing on this earth! Happy Holidays, Bob, Jake, Pita and our newest family member, LAYLA!
AS you all might imagine, Hollywood is just a mess. Jackson's influence was very far reaching regardless of his personal problems and issues. He was quite the super star. The Boulevard in front of Graumann's Chinese Theatre was supercrowded with well wishers etc.
Since my other daddy Jacob used to be in the entertainment industry, we decided to take a short road trip together. ( Strange how death brings together people even when there is a rough patch in their personal lives. ) Just the four of us; together again if just for this once. We drove out to Palos Verdes at the coast and they had coffee and teddy and me had ham steaks. Yummy! We just kind of sat around and they talked about the influence that Jackson had on everyone. My dad Bob remembers watching them when they were the Jackson 5 and Jake got turned on to MJ in the 80's. Very multi-generational wasn't he. Our spot was crowded today and it seems as though most everyone was talking about and reminiscing about Michael.
Bob said that everyone of course remembers and loves Thriller, Beat It, We are the world etc but said HIS favorite video and song of his from long ago was a very cool one called LEAVE ME ALONE. You should check it out.
Aside from that, we had a good day. It was very warm at the coast, the sky was clear and the ocean somehow brought us some peace. For once Bob and Jake did not have cross words to say and it went well. It made me and Teddy feel good and we enjoyed the extensive car ride. We got to see a bunch of other doggies there too and spoke to a lot of people. Daddy got to hand out his business card to many. Always thinking of business. He really needs to give it a rest and relax before he has a heart attack. BOL
If you guys have any comments about the passing of MJ we would love to hear it. Thanks for listening, your friends in Hollywood, Pita and family.
Been there done that almost all the time but my brother Teddy has never been - so daddy loaded us up on Rimadyls and off we went in our new van. We made a pile of stops and if you go to Teddy's page, he has a lot more to bark about this whole day. I just wanted to check in and let everyone know that we are OK and had a great day. Especially Teddy - he is so cute when he revs himself to go on a barking spree. Sleepy bye time - Love Pita and family
Well we just decided to read some stuff on the Dogster home page and ran across something new that Dogster HQ did to make our lives easier on Dogster. We downloaded the new program that they put together and since we use Firefox anyway, it made sense. Daddy experiemted around with it and made it also the homepage and are very pleased with it. Once again, Dogster had taken time to make their clients and friends more accessable. Thanks HQ. 5 PAW job of course. But then, you guys always do what you can to make our lives easier. I highly recommend it as a new used of the program. Bob and the kids.
