Mademoiselle Nobs

Post by emily »

So, was she really Ricks dog? I think I was told by someone that she was his dog. If she was (and even if she wasn't, really), that's fucking awesome. I have a slight obsession with sighthounds, especially the Borzoi.

Sorry if this has been brought up already, I didn't find anything when I searched.

I dont know about it being Ricks dog emily, but wiki (yeah, i know :( ) says that the dog 'nobs' belonged to 'Madonna Bouglione (the daughter of circus director Joseph Bouglione)'.

There is an old video of Rick and a dog in the "Point Me At The Sky" promo. It might be on Youtube somewhere. If somebody has the time, they could analyze that video and the Pompeii video to see if it's the same dog. If it is, it is likely Rick's.

I'm not sure if Rick would take his dog out with him to Pompeii.

No it wasn't Rick's dog. Mademoiselle Nobs was simply hired for the job of howling to the music.

Yeah. Speaking of that song, what breed of dog was Seamus?

I would've preferred Cymbaline or The Embryo to Mademoiselle Nobs

I love Borzois.
