  Southpinellas: Grease in sand proves fatal to dog
The St. Petersburg dog's death at age 8 stunned his owner, Sigrid Diane Cartier, and she is now hoping other dog owners won't have to suffer the same experience.
Losing a dog never is easy, but it is especially difficult under circumstances as tragic as Woody's, said Connie Brooks, shelter manager at the Pinellas County branch of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
Owners have to watch dogs' environments very closely, just like children's, she said, but in Cartier's case, there was probably nothing else the owner could have done.

 Frank Black and the Catholics: Dog in the Sand - PopMatters Music Review
Dog in the Sand is the kind of album that gain converts in droves.
I was a fan of the Pixies, not a devoted worshipper like some, but their brilliance and impact was obvious to me. I only caught snippets of Black's solo work, and missed entirely the previous albums he recorded with the Catholics (Frank Black and the Catholics and Pistollero).
From the opening bars of "Blast Off" to the closing moments of "Dog in the Sand", this is an arresting album that doesn't let go of your attention.

There's a moment on Dog in the Sand (Sonic Unyon), the latest long-player by Black and his blessed Catholics, that seems to capture the embattled rocker's attitude perfectly.
Many of the songs on Dog in the Sand evoke the image of an itinerant cowboy riding bareback across a rugged and -- this being Black -- bizarro landscape, drifting from town to town with a duty to no one and guided by nothing but his own unflappable instinct.
One of the delights of Dog in the Sand is the return of erstwhile Beefheart/Pere Ubu sideman Eric Drew Feldman, who last collaborated with Black on his finest post-Pixies effort, 1994's Teenager of the Year.

His concert at the Tune Inn last Sat., Jan. 20, was trapped in the past, with the crowd mainly feeding off old Pixies favorites for their energy.
On their own merits, his first two solo projects were wild pop masterpieces that left me bouncing around my room and feeling like the coolest middle schooler around, and I will forever be fond of him for that.
But good ol' Frankie lost the majority of his fan base after his music ceased to be experimental, and Dog in the Sand is a weak attempt to recapture those glory days.

 - Clicks and Klangs - Pixies Complete B sides and Frank Black and The Catholics - Dog In The Sand
Dog In The Sand sees Frank reunited with Joey Santiago and former Captain Beefheart and Pere Ubu keyboard player Eric Drew Feldman for the first time since Teenager Of The Year (incidentally another former Magic Band luminary, Moris Tepper, also appears on a couple of tracks).
Yet far from simply being an attempt to recapture lost glories, this seems to indicate that he has taken his bearings from the point at which he apparently got blown off course and lost his bearings, and to be sailing forth on an even keel and making some real headway at last.
It will be a shame if the world is not prepared to allow Dog In The Sand to reach a wider audience than just old Pixies obsessives; even if that is almost inevitably a significantly smaller audience.

And while neither as polished as his self-titled debut or as sonically diverse as its follow-up, Dog in the Sand adds a much-needed freshness to the proceedings.
Dog in the Sand plays as a true classicist rock 'n' roll album, without resorting to cliches or sounding reactionary.
The main reference point seems to be Exile on Main Street-era Stones and early Bowie, and all the tracks share a rootsy feel, accented by Rich Gilbert's frequent use of a pedal steel guitar.

Perhaps by way of grudgingly acknowledging this, Dog In The Sand finds Black enlisting Pixies' guitarist Joey Santiago for the first time in his solo career.
In Turn, the tracks "Robert Onion" "Stupid me" "Ill be blue" and "Dog in the sand" are highlights, and as seems to be the case with most Frank Black Lp's are tracks that rate next to the best of his work - not necessarily better or worse, but different, and all the better for it.
Secondly, as with all his other appearances, his impact on the overall sound of the album, as with Teenager, is negligible.

 RTE.ie Entertainment - Frank Black and The Catholics - Dog In The Sand
Since they imploded in 1992, he has gone down the solo route, rarely hitting full speed and often buckling under the weight of the quartet's brilliance - either sounding like he wanted to bring every Pixies fan with him or trying to pretend that godsend albums like 'Doolittle' never happened.
Which is why 'Dog In The Sand' ranks as one of the great comeback albums in some time.
And by the time album closer 'Dig In The Sand' rolls along the rebirth is complete, with Black sounding healthier than he's done in years, the line 'This is your new home' sums up the spirit of the entire album.

 Nude as the News: Frank Black: Dog In The Sand
Even more so than the 1999's Western-tinged Pistolero, Dog brings to mind the purity of American music as it's experienced driving a car through the vast expanses of the Southwest plains.
Black's canny lyrical inspirations on Dog include "The St. Francis Dam Disaster," a retelling of the tragic 1928 bursting of said dam, whose wall of water rushed through the Santa Clara Valley to the ocean in the dead of night, destroying everything in its path (including over 500 people).
Dog In The Sand isn't going to launch any revolutions or kick-start any more young Cobains, but it's nevertheless a lovely slice of music, with strength in its implication: Frank Black is a survivor, and his existence makes today's music scene just a little bit tougher.
