Dog of the Day: Polo the English Cocker Spaniel Puppy

Posted on November 13, 2025 by Adam Lang

Polo is only ten months old! And if he maybe looks a bit like he was put together out of spare parts, the important thing is that they are adorable spare parts!

Cocker ears. You just want to wrap yourself up in them like a blanket.

Typical cocker goofiness.

Dog of the Day: Bruno the Siberian Husky

Posted on November 11, 2025 by Adam Lang

Bruno doesn’t look 8, does he?

Someone was tied up a little ways away from where his folks were having lunch. I suspect he would have been a bit of a pest otherwise.

Dog of the Day: Tipo the Italian Greyhound

Posted on November 10, 2025 by Adam Lang

Tipo is 5, and he is very very ZOOOOM!

I told Tipo he was a good boy and he immediately went into a play bow, with only his tail moving. You can see: he’s 100% sharp except for blurry tail-stub.

Sunday Switchup: Geary Murals

Posted on November 9, 2025 by Adam Lang

Some pretty good-sized murals on the retaining wall on Geary next to the shopping center at Masonic. And I’m a sucker for the subject matter.

Dog of the Day: Cirrus the Eurasier

Posted on November 6, 2025 by Adam Lang

When I was hitting the Howl-o-ween party, the first dog I saw, I said, “Wow! Is that a Eurasier puppy?” And Cirrus (6 months old) ran over to me and covered me with kisses, so I must have been right!

For a second I heard his name as ‘Cirrhosis’. Quite glad to be wrong.

This is from 45 minutes later, when I ran across him in the venue. He’s always like this!

Dog of the Day: Reilly the Lakeland Terrier Repeat

Posted on November 5, 2025 by Adam Lang

So here’s a funny thing: this is the fourth Lakeland terrier post I’ve made on this site. I posted a picture of Posey the Lakeland on August 5th of this year, and noted that I had seen Posey before, in 2019. And that I had only had one Lakeland before that, an eight-month-old puppy named… Reilly!

Reilly is now eight years old and still just as full of spunk as he was in 2017 when I originally snapped some shots of him.

I have finally given up torturing myself for not noticing repeats until I search for them. My memory was not made to hold ten thousand dogs.

Mariachiuaua! Saw this pup in a shop window, singing the blues.

I hope he wasn’t being too loud in there.

It’s… a surprisingly handsome look, really.

Dog of the Day: Auggie (Ben Doggie?) the Birthday Boy Havanese

Posted on November 3, 2025 by Adam Lang

Whuf! Today was a LOT. On Saturday I broke a crown (that’s a tooth thing that you will find out about soon enough, for you young’ns). Today I managed to finagle my dentist into seeing me at ridiculously short notice and got to her office at 12 for a 12:30 appointment. I was in the chair by 12:15… and at 12:40 a woman who was nine months pregnant with a potentially life-threatening abscess showed up.

I was in that chair until 5:15. I won’t say it was the longest day of my life, because honestly not even close. It wasn’t even my worst vacation day. But it wasn’t something I’d prefer to repeat regularly.

And then! On my way home! I ran across this adorable little fuzzball. Meet Auggie, the one year old Havanese. Well, technically he was one yesterday, but since I didn’t even know he existed until today, I think we can be excused from celebrating his birthday one day late.

By the way, we have had one Auggie (here), two Augies (here and here), and one Oggie (here), so Auggie here is in good company!

Sorry if the pictures are a touch blurry. By the time I got out of that dentist it was already getting dark. (Happy daylight savings, everyone!)

Also it’s really hard to get non-blurry pictures when the dog is as hyper and squirmy as Auggie.

Sunday Switchup: Halloweeny Neighborhood

Posted on November 2, 2025 by Adam Lang

Few pictures of Halloween decorations from my wanders through the, ah, more ridiculously affluent neighborhoods of San Francisco.

I will note that some of the most… thorough of these were being set up as I came by, by a professional party company. Which seems an awful lot like cheating.

Gotta admit, the first one is a favorite.

MANY Dog Day: Howl-O-Weeners!

Posted on October 31, 2025 by Adam Lang

I stopped by a local Howl-O-Ween celebration last weekend. All (almost all?) of the costumes were store bought, but some of them were still pretty funny! Sorry, too many pics to caption or hovertext today! Also, I am trying something new: this is a LOT of pictures, so I’m trying an image gallery instead of individual pictures. Let’s see what happens!

Edit: Hmm. Not sure if I like it. I’ve also added a slide-show below, if you want to see the pictures closer-up!
