Living la vita canino in Kitsilano; fetch; moonwalking; our 12k beach runs; fetch; exercising his powers of babe magnetism (only for good); fetch; basking in the sun--and your adulation.

Not being allowed to (a) join in other dogs' reindeer games (Dante's drawn to balls in play) or (b) swim each time he spots water.

The beachfronts of west side Vancouver.

Arrival Story:
Here's the Oscar acceptance speech. Meeting Dante was the winning result of a long search. My sincere gratitude to all the great people who, in one way or another, brought Dante and I together, including the Coquitlam SPCA and Petfinder.org. I've had Dante since April 20th, 2004 and he's already made two national TV appearances (your token vicious pitbull), a glamorous magazine spread and a story in a city daily about his birthday. He's a star, baby, and don't you forget it.

Bio:
When Dante met his vet, the doc turned to me and said, "You've won the lottery." 'Nuff said.

I've Been On Dogster Since:
