Milo was bound to be the dog of the day eventually: he’s the mascot of the Irish music session that Autumn and a friend of hers run at Costello’s Four Deuces (pronounced COST uh low), way out in the Sunset in San Francisco. (33rd and Taraval, Sunday afternoons starting around 4:30). The session is pretty good, some good musicians show up pretty regularly. But on the weeks when Milo is there, things really shine.
Milo is a half-basset-hound. We’re not sure what else he is: maybe Lab, maybe pit bull. Whatever he is, though, he’s a real sweetheart, and one hell of a ham. Check out after the break for a movie and a couple more pictures.
This is the famous 'puppy speedbump' position. Milo has it down pat.
Milo being a total ham. This is from the first week of the session, about two months ago.
And this is from this week, March 21st. It's no fluke: Milo is a born performer.
When I get a dog, I want a dog just like Milo!
