My dog, Milton…and other ugly dogs
A lot of my boys have brand new English Bulldog puppies. I showed them a picture of my puppy who's almost a year old now; Milton is his name. I emailed it to everyone and the responses I got back really hurt my feelings.
This is my little boy. Yes, his left eye is crazy like the guy off Mr. Deeds sometimes. And he's tiny and he really can't exercise for more than 5 minutes, but all those things are the things that make him the tightest dog ever.
A newer photo of Milton:
This is Milton in his younger days:
But that’s not what this blog is about. It's about ugly dogs. Everyone in Portland has a dog. If they don’t, they did, or they will, or they have a pet of some sort. It's just what Oregonians do. They have pets.
Whenever I go eat around the Pearl, people are walking around with their dogs all the time. It's hilarious to see some of these dogs dressed up, fancied up, wearing clothes. Shoot, some of the pets get better treatment than humans would at the Benson. Hey, to each their own, but what I want to know is if we can get some pictures of either the ugliest dog you can find or a picture of a dog so dressed up it should be at the Emmy awards.
Welcome to my new Blog
Well hello, this is Channing Frye here. This is officially my first blog so bear with me. I have to kinda give you a little background on why I want to do this and what I’m gonna be talking about.
As you all know (and if you don’t I’m gonna tell you), I play basketball for the Portland Trailblazers - an NBA team. This is my 3rd year in the business. I went to the University of Arizona - the greatest college in the history of colleges, so go there and be the coolest person ever.
I was drafted by the New York Knicks, played 2 seasons, then got traded to Portland. Which was a great thing. I love Portland. I appreciated everything that New York did for me, but because it’s a business, thankfully they moved me to the good ole Northwest.
Well enough about that. Let’s talk about my blog. I’m not going to be writing about basketball stuff every day. I’m gonna talk about the real stuff. The stuff that matters, like what’s the funniest video on the web today or the best movie ever or my favorite spots to eat drink and be merry in PDX.
Shoot, I might even give you an opinion on whatever you want. But also remember that it’s just my opinion so if I offend anyone it’s not on purpose, it’s just my point of view.
Hopefully we’ll never get to that part though. Well, have fun reading this. Hopefully you’ll learn nothing and smile a lot. LOL

My dog Lilly…
I have two Bull dogs. The older is a girl named Lilly. The younger is a boy named Milton. I am positive you will see plenty of pictures of both as I continue to post more. Stay tuned!
