The ruler of rue de Buci

He may be a small Toto-like dog, but he's a big (and familiar) presence at Café Le Conti where  his owner is the patron.

Orson the dog rules over rue de Buci with a benevolent paw. His café is at a busy intersection of five streets: rue St. André des Arts, rue Dauphine, rue Mazarine, rue de l'Ancienne Comédie, and rue de Buci with fast traffic, big buses and motorcycles zipping around. Yet the little pooch navigates it all safely. As a serveur said, "Il part et il revient" (he leaves and he comes back). He trots off down Buci with a busy look on his  face as he patrols his neighborhood.

 

And after he inspects his territory, Orson's back at his café, peacefully surveying the hubbub of cars and pedestrians.

 

 

 

 

Long Live the King!
