Dog of the Day: Pluto the German Shepherd (Mix?)

Not sure if she’s really a mix or just an unusual-looking German shepherd. I am sure that she’s a big goof, and I know this because she would NOT stop digging in a planter until her mom told her off, which had no effect whatsoever, and then gave her a treat, which definitely did.

She seemed to have decided to tunnel under the sidewalk.

When we finally got her head out of the hole, it was PERFECTLY CLEAN.

Dog of the Day: Wilson the Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Wilson is 5, and, like many corgis, an Olympic-level side-eye expert.

The only thing I think of when I hear the name ‘Wilson’ is the old TV show ‘Home Improvement’. Yes I’m old.

There’s that patented corgi grin.

And that is a patented corgi expression.

Puppy Pile of the Day: More Yogic Dogs

I went by the same spot I did last week, and the puppies were awake!

“I can’t get up because I’m covered with puppies oh my god help help it’s awful” said nobody ever.

Heeeey… that doesn’t look like yoga.

Sunday Switchup: Do Do? (Or Not)

I dunno, I thought it was funny. Maybe it’s the 8-year-old in me.

Caturday Supplement: Cat Town Kitty!

I wandered into the Great Mall last Thursday while I was waiting for my car to recharge. There is, I am delighted to report, a CAT CAFE! Well, not exactly. No food allowed. But close enough! Fifteen dollars for half an hour of kitten-play. I didn’t have half an hour… this time. So I just took a few pictures.

I just wanted to say hi. So unfair.

Puppy Pile of the Day: Dog Yoga

I ran across a sign outside a local art gallery. It said ‘Yoga With Puppies’. So I peeked through the window.

I guess I might need to try yoga after all, huh?

Closeup. Not great quality, but… great subject matter!

Dog of the Day: Dexter the Repeat Customer Beagle Dachshund Mix

I saw Dexter and wandered over to say hello, and despite the fact that neither he nor I have run across him since ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO, she recognized me, and after she reminded me, I even remembered taking some pictures of him, in a Starbucks down town. He was a Macy’s window pup in 2010, so he is very nearly as old as our dear blog.

Dexter has, in the last ten years, aged rather less noticeably than I have.

I can’t tell you how nice it was to see a pup this healthy and happy who has been around as long as da blog!

It was even tough getting him to settle down for a photo. At fourteen!

Dog of the Day: Nico the Siberian Husky

Nico is 1, and quite a goof, don’t you think?

I have a funny noise that makes about a third of dogs tilt their heads. It’s AWESOME.

Huskies really have that ‘puppydog eyes’ thing down pat.

They also have the most ridiculously smug expressions ever.

Dog of the Day: Archie the Sheepadoodle

Archie (1) is a good name for today, because I was just recently thinking about “archy and mehitabel” (the only cockroach-and-cat double act that I know of, at least from the early 20th century, and well worth the read of not just that poem but the rest of their oeuvre as well).

Archie is not a cockroach. He is a floofy sheepadoodle.

Archie is NOT shy. He was stopping traffic for the dog toll as thoroughly as he was able.
