About Romeo


My name is Romeo, and I'm a wheelchair dog with an eye for the ladies and a lust for life.
I'm part poodle, part terrier, and about 4 years old. Some people call me a name-dropper, but hey, this is Hollywood. Some people call me a hipster, and I just roll my eyes. Hipsters are so 2006. My idol is Charlie Sheen--I think he and I see eye to eye on a lot of things, especially the females. I've seen him around at parties but we've never been formally introduced. I'm also a huge fan of Larry Flynt--one day, I'm going to get me a gold-plated wheelchair, just like him. Just watch.
I'm in an open relationship with my mom, Caroline Ryder. She's pretty rad, and she gets that a dog like me was born to be petted by as many girls as possible. Woof.
We live together in Los Angeles, California, and we're always going on amazing adventures together. Sometimes we'll go on walks in the hills. Sometimes we'll hit up some parties, and look for Charlie and Larry. Sometimes we'll do yoga. Downward dog is my favorite pose.

In case you're wondering, I was able-bodied until early 2009, when I suffered a herniated disc in my spine. My mom took me to the hospital and when I woke up, I wasn't in pain any more, but my hind legs were all floppy. Something had happened to my spine. The vets said that intense physical therapy might help me get back on my feet. Maybe one day, I will learn how to walk again, using all four paws!
For now though, I'm happy scooting around Hollywood, making new lady friends, talking to my agent and being Los Angeles' fastest dog on wheels! And guess what, the females seem more interested me than ever before, now that I have a wheelchair. They think it makes me special...and who am I to argue with them?
