I ran into Walden (3, a boy) the other day, and I saw the nose and though, ‘That looks like the nose of someone I used to know!’ And sure enough, when I asked, “Does Walden need sunblock on his nose?” his dad told me he does indeed have discoid lupus. Fortunately it doesn’t have a huge health impact on dogs, for the most part.
I do not know the story behind Slay’s name, I just know that she’s 1 and the spit and image of our beloved web site’s logo! Oh and also I know that she has an instagram page. The instagram page says that she’s from LA, but who knows how up to date that is. Maybe she’s moved to SF, or maybe she was just visiting.
I ran out for lunch today, and saw a man and an adorable puppy. I asked how old he was, and the man said that he had no idea because the dog had just run up to him in the middle of the Financial District. No collar, no tags. He was taking the pup to see if there was a microchip, but he also said ‘My last dog died a few months ago, I wonder if the universe is telling me something?’
Luca is only 1, but Luca is large! And also calm and sweet.
I was looking at my notes on Thor today and I thought, “Gee, that name actually sounds vaguely familiar for a keeshond.” And sure enough, we’ve seen Thor before! Only now he’s six. Still causing trouble wherever he goes.
We’ve had a couple of sapsaree (sapsali/sapsari) pups before, but it’s definitely not one of my top, say, 200 breeds here, and so it’s always nice to find a pup like Moose (7) wandering around. Especially one with his own instagram!
Penny is a four-year-old foofly wiener in a doggie bag!
Aria is six, and eager to show off her floof! (Aria is such a great name for a dog, especially one that likes to sing, as most husky mixes tend to.)
Nana (nanananaheyJude?) is a sweet adorable 4-year-old German shepherd mix, according to her folks. I am the one who guessed husky but I feel pretty confident, what with that STRIPEY NOSE!!
We’ve seen Alex before, but last time I didn’t have a link to his Instagram. This bun really gets around!
