The popularity of mimetic type architecture widely captured the attention of Angelenos, increasing the popularity of Tail O’ the Pup. The original owners, noted dance team Frank Veloz and Yolanda Casazza (of Veloz and Yolanda), sold Tail O’ the Pup in 1970 to Eddie Blake. When a new construction project took over The Pup’s home in the mid 1980’s, locals banned together to keep Tail O’ the Pup open

and found a new home for the hot dog stand on San Vicente Blvd. The cultural landmark had to close its’ doors in 2005 until Kevin Michaels and Brett Doherty partnered with Jay, the grandson of Eddie Blake and his wife Nicole Miller, to renovate and re-open Tail O’ the Pup in 2015. Tail O’ the Pup has been a celebrity hot spot since its opening, drawing fans such as: Aaron Spelling, Sigourney Weaver, Robert Redford, Barbara Streisand, Jay Leno, Robert Wagner, Billy Crystal, Richard Dreyfus, Lily Tomlin, Whoopie Goldberg, Magic Johnson, Jenny McCarthy, just to name a few. Additionally, the landmark has appeared in many movies, including Body Double and L.A. Story as well as Devo and The Go-Go’s music videos.
