Le Byblos is Z Best

I can’t remember how many times I’ve stayed at Le Byblos Hotel in St. Tropez but I do know that my stay this month goes down as my favorite.

Check out the new doggie beg and doggie dishes they added. And there is even a room service menu for dogs. But I didn’t get to try any of the items. Doesn’t my mommy know that I get tired of eating the same food every single day? Sure, she gave me a French fry (we are in France, after all) and some bread (aren’t I supposed to be trying to lose weight???) and some of her grilled fish at Club 55, but it would certainly be nice to have room service delivered to ME for once.

On a mission to lose weight

I’ve been to Monaco several times so going again, for the Grand Prix for the second time, was no big deal. What was great was that I finally started getting regular exercise. Isn’t it amazing how some owners go to the gym every day yet neglect their pooches’ exercise. No wonder there are so many overweight dogs.

I vow not to remain one of them! My doc says I have to lose two pounds. That’s about a quarter of my weight but I know I can do it. I huffed and puffed up and down the streets on Monte Carlo. I should have lost a few ounces but I’m not sure.

I was surprised that every time my mommy dragged herself back to our room at the Fairmont hotel, she took me out for a walk. I got to meet a lot of people at 4 and 5 a.m. One guy, an Italian of course, was all over me. He used to have a Chihuahua. I was a bit of a diva but he didn’t seem to care about my attitude. I also saw race car driver Lewis Hamilton leaving Flavio Briattore’s nightclub Billionaire one night, or should I say early morning. He’s barely taller than me! I wish I had my camera so I could have taken a photo with him but at that hour I didn’t. Oh well.

And really, I didn’t have my camera on purpose. I’m a little embarrassed about how big I’ve let myself get so I’m not crazy about being photographed right now.

Fun in the sun at La Quinta

I appreciate that La Quinta Resort & Club, near Palm Springs, provides amenities for dogs but not every dog is the size of a small horse. Look at the size of this huge bed and the doggie dish to the right. Are we in Texas, where everything is bigger?

Still, I got a kick out of the “do not disturb”sign. It reads “Beware of Dog (just kidding — I’m sleeping).” Truth is, I was in the room and the housekeeping staff better watch out for me. Only because I’m afraid of vacuum cleaners. Blow dryers don’t bother me though. Go figure. Maybe because I know blow dryers are making me more beautiful. All vacuum cleaners will do is suck up my tail if I’m not careful.

Anyway, I enjoyed my two-night stay at La Quinta, well, except for the crickets in the room that kept me awake.  A girl needs her beauty sleep.

Welcome to my blog!

I admit it. I lead a pretty good life. And you’ll get to read all about it as I travel around the world, meet interesting people and show that being a dog is not such a bad thing.

For instance, here I am at Esperanza, a resort in Los Cabos, getting a massage on my terrace. Yeah, it’s a dog’s world all right. And I’m loving it.
