Literally, in this photo. This picture of my friend's dogs cracks me up. They don't live in New York (they are from the wilds of the Great White North), but the photo reminded me of all the little dogs I see in the city who have the biggest Napoleon complex.
Ah, New York...where else in the world will you see Lhasa Apsos strut into Bloomie's with their owners, as if it were an everyday dog park? Where else will you actually find restaurants that gladly welcome Fido to the table? Where else will you find doggie spas that'll pamper your pooch for more than I've ever paid for my own massage?
New York is basically overrun by 1) rats and 2) rat-like dogs being carried in big designer purses. And in New York, the dog's life really ain't so bad. I see these pampered Napoleon-complexed yappers all the time. They don't even think they're big dogs; they think they're humans.
And the irony is they've made their humans their bitches. They've managed to turn billionaire bankers, models, lawyers, hipsters, and Upper East Side princesses alike into little more than highly paid pooper scoopers. Their owners will pass by a hundred homeless people without giving them a second look, but are willing to put little more than a flimsy plastic bag between their manicured hands and a steaming pile of dog shit. I've even seen a man with a Great Dane hold a butterfly net-looking thing under his dog's ass to catch the poop before it hit the ground. Even your mother wouldn't do that for you.

I read something about someone paying 5,000 dollars to have a leg removed from a five-legged cat. While the thought of a five-legged cat is totally terrifying to me, paying 5,000 to do anything for such a small animal is slightly more disturbing. Perhaps that makes me cold?
