Listen.
In the evening, after it cools down, I like to sit and listen. I hear the cats prowling, the flying beetles that look like little tanks, the new baby birds calling for their mom, the lonely frog somewhere in the neighborhood, the splashing of the fountain, a few crickets chirping and that crazy mockingbird once …
Week Wrap Up.
It’s been a very busy week at the studio. Most of my adventures have been in the studio this week. In the mornings, before it gets really hot, I like to play hard with the tennis balls. Then I go to work and chill out in the air conditioning and get lots of pets. I …

No Stinky Dogs Allowed.
I have to have a bath every time I go to the hospital for pet therapy…no stinky dogs allowed! I even have a little doggy breathe mint when I get there just for extra freshness. I have to admit, I am not really fond of baths. Oh, I tolerate the humans drenching me with water …
Fireworks Are Bad.
On the evening of July 4th it was discovered that I, Spencer, am afraid of fireworks. Who would have thought it? This from a dog that sleeps deeply in a sound studio listening to crazy noises from movies all day! I have slept through dogs barking, cannon shots, lightening strikes, car tires screeching and all …
Spencer Therapy Dog.
Well almost…my human mom and I started our processing so I can become a therapy dog at the Northridge Hospital. This week I went to be evaluated. They poked and prodded me and even almost ran me over with a wheelchair to make sure I am not a BAD dog and won’t bite any patients. …

Hi everyone! I am taking a little break from the blog this week because work at the studio is very busy right now. We are working on a lot of movies and television shows. One of them even has a dog in it, just not me! As sad as I am to have to take …
Beach Bum.
Yesterday we went to the beach. Los Angeles has many beaches but dogs are only allowed on a handful, so we went to Leo Carrillo State Beach which is part of a big park of the same name. You can camp and hike in the park and the beach has tide pools and a giant …
A Good Chew.
There is nothing like a good chew to make a dog happy. I like to chew on a special bone treat that is supposed to make my breath smell fresh….it doesn’t work. I have ultra doggy breath. Chewing on the treat is a favorite pastime of mine. When I get the treat I like to …

The Art of the Roll.
Like many dogs, I enjoy a good roll in the grass. It’s even better if I roll over a few tennis balls while I’m at it. To have a good roll first you must scatter the tennis balls near the rolling spot. Then stretch out on your side and push off with your outer back …

I am a dog with a job! I am the official studio mascot for Grind Music & Sound. We make sounds for film and television…well, I don’t make sounds unless they need dog sounds (or growly monster sounds), but you know what I mean. My duties are to greet clients when they come to the …
