Hey fam! 🐾 Time-traveling Jack here. Just a quick bark-out from your history-hopping hound. I’ve been busy chasing tales through the centuries – from Roman rumbles to dining with queens – turns out my tail’s good for more than just wagging. Planning a “Cena Temporal” back at the Puppy Plate to spill all the de-tails over Beagle Bagels. Pawsburgh’s full of surprises; you’ll hear it from the dog’s mouth soon. Until then, keep your snouts sharp, and your tails high! 🐕✨

Licks and wags,
Jack “The Time Barker”

I never quite understood the whole hullabaloo about time travel until I found myself whisked off my paws and hurtled through eras where treats evolved beyond the wildest dreams of any modern dog. My name is Jack, and I haven’t the foggiest how I got here, but that’s Pawsburgh for you – always has a trick tucked beneath its fur.

Let me paint you a picture; one moment I was snoozing on Lhasa Lane under the forgiving shade of a sycamore tree, feeling artisanal sunbeams warm my belly, and the next, I blinked open to a jarring whirlwind of colors that even Gigi’s coat couldn’t match. You see, in Pawsburgh, some alleys have a bit more… how shall I put it? Woof. And this one had “Doctor Whoof” scrawled in a scent that tickled my olfactory like no other.

In a heartbeat, with a flourish of my sprightly tail – my time-telling rotor if you will – I was transported, not to Harrier Harbor as intended, but to ancient Rome. Fleas and bones! There I stood, plopped amid a hubbub of togas and sandals. Talk about out of place; a bulldog amongst Romans is like a cat at a canine choir practice – utterly discordant.

But, you know what they say, ‘When in Rome,’ and so adapt I did. Where shrieking vacuums fear to tread, I, Jack, tread aplenty. The Colosseum was no match for my stout heart, though I refused to chase their peculiar idea of a ball – it doesn’t bounce; it bloody breaks!

Swift as an unclaimed sausage at a barbecue, my time-traveling doghouse spun me through history; from Marie Antoinette’s boudoir (I had a bone to pick with her take on ‘let them eat cake’), to the groovy beatniks of the ’60s with their far-out chicken-marinated rhythms, and then, with a WHOOF!, I skidded back into Pawsburgh.

By day, that’s a spaghetti sauce I could easily slurp, but by night, Pawsburgh reveals its fantastical back-alley ballet. And despite not taking a dip in Harrier Harbor’s waters (lest we forget my aversion to the aquatic), I can tell you, the stories the waves could spin…

Back in the present, with paws firmly on the familiar cobblestones of Shar-Pei Shores, I realize, my escapade isn’t without craving companionship. Loitering wistfully outside the Puppy Plate, a notion strikes me; what better way to share this bounty of chronology than treat my dear friends to a dinner of fabled feasts?

Thus, “Cena Temporal”, the temporal supper, is born at Pup’s Paella, with Beagle Bagels for dessert – because who needs to respect the traditional order of meals when you’ve nosed through time? My savory soliloquy is interrupted when Marlon, eyes ablaze with his typical audacity, questions the integrity of my tail’s rotor capabilities. I give him the same reproachful snort I reserve for pickles and ear cleanings.

‘Stick to your Nerf ball gun, Jack,’ Mom always says, but oh, if only she knew the vast expanse my paws have traversed without ever leaving her sight. Fetch game in the Colosseum, indeed.

Now, with the aftertaste of historic dinners lining my jowls, I sprawl contentedly in The Pampered Pooch Salon, my fur gleaming like the beacon of an adventure-laden future. Each combed strand whispers of time threads yet to tug with my stubborn might.

So, yes, in Pawsburgh, my tale is no mere wag – it’s a continuing saga punctuated with temporal mischief, and friends both timeless and timely. For wherever scent or sight fails to guide, my heart (and occasionally my tail) points the way. Take note, my furry compatriots; Pawsburgh is our oyster, marinated in mystery, seasoned with spectacle, and just waiting to unleash history, one whimsical WHOOF! at a time.

The End.
