Olive wants to be a Star

Being from Hollywood, Olive and her friend, Oscar, decided to try their luck at becoming movie stars. First they went to a fabulous photographer to have their headshots made:





Then they headed on down to the famous Paramount Studios on Melrose Avenue to try their luck!





An uniformed guard stopped them before they could even get in.



They gave him their shiny 8x10 headshots and their most winning smiles....







...but apparently dogs are not allowed on the Paramount Lot.

Olive Goes to Lassie's Star

Today Olive and her friend, Bear, decided to check out some of the scene on Hollywood Boulevard. They had heard Lassie's paws were in the cement, but all they could find were hands, feet and horsehooves... before too many shots could be taken, they were asked to leave. Well!



Six blocks down or so they found Lassie's star! In the shade!

Olive Goes to the Hollywood Bowl

This weekend, Olive and her longtime friend, Matilda, decided to make another page for the "Olive Goes to Hollywood" book with a visit to the famous Hollywood Bowl.





Unfortunately, the season doesn't really start until June, so no shows were on, and no snacks could be obtained.



Still, it was cool to check out this Hollywood Landmark!

PINK'S goes to the dogs

Olive made a new friend today! Ann Hamilton is in town from San Francisco and she brought her adorable Pug, Bogie, with her.

Olive and Bogie became fast friends and they decided to take a little trip to the Hollywood landmark, PINK'S hotdogs.

















I have actually been wanting to make a book called "Olive Goes to Hollywood" for years now. The book would be about Olive taking her dog friends to various landmarks around Hollywood, and I think I'm going to try to start it now. Those of you who read this blog who know me personally and have dogs that know Olive, be sure to contact me to be in the book!
