EDITOR’S NOTE My friend recently brought home a new puppy. She hadn’t been discussing her favorite breeds, hadn’t fawned over strange pooches walking down the street, hasn’t obsessed over cute canine accessories—all the symptoms of wanting to become a dog owner—but she fell in love with a Shih Tzu-Poodle mix and had to have him. Jimmie has now become our unofficial mascot, accompanying our group of girlfriends on camping trips and to parties, and everywhere he goes, he’s the center of attention. People can’t help but pet him and coo at him in high-register baby voices. Lucky for them, he’s a sucker for attention. Jimmie Being around Jimmie has made me—an avowed cat person—realize the universal appeal of the canine variety, especially in Portland. Maybe it’s the nice weather, or maybe it’s the fact that I live in the Pearl, but everywhere I go, I’m seeing dogs—big, little, sleek, furry, rugged and pampered. They’re something that Portlanders of all styles seem to have in common. If you’re one of these devoted dog owners, turn to p. 18 for our look at all the local dog-friendly spots—restaurants that bake treats, pubs that serve water bowls, even a mall that welcomes pups for a little air-conditioned walk. Whatever kind of animal you call family, all pet owners should also check out our look at local pet shops on p. 52. Of course, we haven’t forgotten about our loyal human readers. Time’s running out for a summer getaway, so workaholics, procrastinators and lazy planners want to check out this month’s feature on quick Northwest trips—just pick your direction and go! (p. 12) And when the August heat becomes unbearable, head to one our nearby swimming holes (p. 58) or perhaps a less predictable place to chill out (p. 62). In the meantime we’ll be slaving away in our air-conditioned offices—perhaps with art director Joel’s lab, Bella, to keep us company—to make PDX Magazine your favorite guide to living in Portland. Let us know how we’re doing. Send me an email or check out myspace.com/pdxmagazine.com. Liz Hummer Editor editor@pdxmagazine.com 6 PDXmagazine.com / August 2006
