I snapped an unusual duo today when they went thru the drive-thru in Solomon's Island MD. They ate outside and the rider shared his meal. He said the dog has been riding for six years and he rarely takes trips without him. He didn't break out the geetar.

I met Bowzer face to face last year. We did an event an were friends with the guy who put it on so we got front row seats. We saw Danny and The Jrs, Bowzer who can play the piano very well and sing. We saw the guy who sang The Lion Sleeps Tonight and he sounded the same now as he did then. We got to meet and talk to all of them. It was a cool night.

Just trying to figure this out--the dog simply stands on the pillion and has a short lead running from the dog's harness/collar to the sissy bar? That seemed more unusual than a guitar-playing dog--I have two beagles that can pick Red-Haired Boy on a flat-top and a five-string--gonna take 'em out to Branson and give the Osmond Brothers a run for their money

I say take to the Osmonds! Yeah, the dog was strapped in by the sissy-bar to a chest harness. The guy said he has another bike and has a pad mounted to the top of the tank that the dog can stand or sit on. Apparently he likes to be out front better, but will ride on the pillion. I tried to snap a pix of the dog and rider, but another guy with the same dog (wirehaired Jack Russell) and they chatted for a while before he left.

I used to work with a guy whose cat rode on a pad on the tank of his sportster. I saw him at the credit union once and the cat was laying on the pad while he was inside - no collar or leash. As Treasurer, he later embezzled 25K from his union. I wonder whatever happened to that cat?

Probably got a job as the evil HR manager where Dilbert works. 
A long time ago, I had a cat that loved to ride on my shoulder. She would sit by the door begging and, if I said, "OK, come on.", she would run out, climb my pants leg and on up to my shoulder.
