Oh, pool boy…

by Not That Mike The Other Mike on July 7, 2008

"When Spencer and Lenore arrive from the Hamptons, tell them I’ll be joining them in the Blue Room for dinner.  And bring me another one of those lovely drinks with all the umbrellas in them."

And when that nice photographer for Vanity Fair shows up, send him here.

Looks like he DOES own the place, Katherine P.

Pass me the skimmer. There’s a big, hairy caterpillar in the pool.

I’ll be the pool boy if the pays good, but the dog will have to go.Just give me the rich widow.

4 lyrical 07.07.08 at 11:40 am

I’ll take the dog! I’ll take the dog!

5 wagthedogma 07.07.08 at 12:00 pm

Is that a peke-a-pool?

6 Gail 07.07.08 at 12:52 pm

Hope Mr. Furry McDoggypaddle is wearing his “Lil’ Swimmers” or there’ll be more than leaves to skim out of the pool!!

Ooooh, he’s gorgeous. I’ve just finished the Terry Pratchett where a pug is the chairman of the AM Bank, having been left all the shares by his late owner….. sooooo Hon Glad….. I might actually take the dog, rather than (in my case) the widower.

That is a adorable photo.

LOL @ hovertext…where’s Scavullo when you need him?

12 eikoleigh 07.07.08 at 8:05 pm

lol, he does look a little like a fuzzy caterpillar. But a cute one… :-P

And you thought your aunt got cranky when her hair got wet.

I don’t think that there’s a big enough lily covered swimming cap in the world.

14 dub1 07.07.08 at 9:47 pm

Trickie Woo!!! or a kleenex-box cover…

15 Theo 07.07.08 at 9:49 pm

Dub1 — heh. It’s “flop-boat”.

16 260Oakley 07.07.08 at 9:51 pm

Dub1 gets the James Herriot reference for the win! I loved the books and the tv series. Trickie Woo and Mrs. Pomfrey were hilarious. So was the farting boxer.

Money.

Oh!! my peke loves doing this. I was in the pool and she followed me around and around. so finally i picked her up and put her in one of the floatees. she loved it.

As a Pekingese owner, half of me is going, “AWWWWWWW,” while the other half shrieks “OMG THAT DOG WILL SINK TO THE BOTTOM OF THE POOL LIKE A ROCK.”

Pekingese: Between the hair, the weight, and the short little legs, SO not water-compatible.

Freya–

I sent the pic in, it’s my friends’ dog, and I assure you they were near him the whole time. They wouldn’t let Mr. Smith drown!

21 abbi 07.08.08 at 3:29 am

that is just like my sisters dog………..so spoiled!!!!!!!!!!

22 Katie 07.08.08 at 3:34 am

I’m glad someone said Tricki Woo before me! I’ve been watching All Creatures Great & Small on Netflix. Let’s hope he doesn’t go crackerdog in the pool!

23 Boomer's Babysitter 07.08.08 at 3:43 am

I’m not showing this to Boomer, he’ll get ideas. Thanks to me, he thinks he’s the best, most wonderful, cutest dog, EVAH… One – I don’t want him to think I was kidding. Two – I don’t want him to think I have a pool! *wish* (BTW – this Peke could possibly take the prize for cutest, just sayin’, don’t bite my nose, Boo…)

24 Liz 07.08.08 at 3:43 am

So adorable! The Tricki Woo reference is spot-on. Hope she doesn’t eat chocolates and truffles…

25 catablob 07.08.08 at 12:48 pm

Oddly this pekingese looks like James Mason.
he’s all about to chase eva marie saint and cary grant around mount rushmore.

26 Laura 07.08.08 at 2:46 pm

I love this. How gorgeous!

27 Freya Lorelei 07.09.08 at 2:15 am

Oh yeah, I figured he’s supervised because obviously someone is THERE with the camera…it’s just kinda a knee-jerk reaction.

By the way, very lovely to see a Peke in full coat–usually you see them all trimmed up like Pomeranians, and while that’s very cute, the full coat looks more natural and “Peke”-like (although it’s harder to maintain…I keep mine in full coat and he sheds enough for two dogs in the summer!).

Oh, and “Mr. Smith”? BRILLIANT.

28 dub1 07.09.08 at 3:55 am

And Mr. T. should get a hamper from Harrod’s for ‘flop-boat’.

29 dub1 07.09.08 at 4:14 am

PS:
ROFL James Mason: I didn’t believe, but voila!

30 slythwolf 07.09.08 at 8:04 am

For some reason I feel this pic should be a video with “Tangerine Speedo” playing in the background…

31 Claire 07.09.08 at 3:09 pm

Looks like Zac Efron in High School Musical 2

32 Yumi 07.09.08 at 10:01 pm

hmmm I wonder if he just has the pool 2 look good or if he actually swims in it hmmm….

33 Erin E. 07.13.08 at 4:19 am
