Posted on June 20, 2026 by Adam Lang

I checked out an adoption event a few months ago, and got some cute pictures!

I have a soft spot for black cats. They don’t get adopted as often as other color kitties.

Double Disgruntled Dog Day: Staffordshire Terrier And Unknown Mixed Breed

Posted on June 19, 2026 by Adam Lang

I’ve been a bad boy. This week was pretty overwhelming: the pups and I spent a lot of time together, and dog sitting plus work plus having to take care of some of my own life at the same time turns out to be, you know, work! Well, sadly, I am no longer pup-encumbered (I miss them!). This is a good thing for you folks, though, since it means I should be able to get back to my regular schedule again.

I ran across these two on one of the walks I took with my pup-sitting charges. They were very much uninterested in having anyone, canine or human, walk by their house. Shortly thereafter, I ran across their owner, who assures me that they’re mostly quite nice, although the older one is kind of cranky. They’re mostly just very, very territorial.

Posted on June 14, 2026 by Adam Lang

Someone came by while I was hanging out in the back yard at my current dogsit. Well, several someones, but none of my hummingbird pictures came out.

Double Dog Day: Penny the Miniature Dachshund Puppy And Bruno the Cocker Spaniel Poodle Mix

Posted on June 12, 2026 by Adam Lang

When I ran across Penny (6 months) and Bruno (3 years) they were having just an absolute blast. It looks terrifying, though, doesn’t it?

Bruno has an instagram, too! Brunellojones!

A lot of people would have dragged these two apart, and spoiled a perfectly good time.

Most of the time, if something gets too rough, one of the dogs will yip and the other will stop.

Puppy of the Day: Sonnet the Labrador Retriever Guide Dog In Training

Posted on June 11, 2026 by Adam Lang

Sonnet (19 weeks, a girl) is a chipper little trainee guide dog for Guide Dogs for the Blind. Hope she brightens your day as much as she did mine!

She still needs to learn a lot more discipline, but that’s okay: she has plenty of time.

Dog of the Day: Simon the Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Posted on June 10, 2026 by Adam Lang

Simon is only one year old, and consequently has about six hundred times as much energy as he knows what to do with.

Double Dogsit Day: Henry the Golden Retriever and Dash the Supermutt

Posted on June 9, 2026 by Adam Lang

I’m sitting a super pair of pups in Albany, California: Henry is an eight year old golden retriever, and Dash is a scruffly scrappy little pupper (which almost came out ‘crappy’, thank you autocorrect!) with a lot of attitude. Today we went to Albany Beach and played some fetch and had a lot of sniffs, and then we went for a nice hike along the Albany Bulb, which has a very funny name but is just a little knob of land that sticks out into the water.

And then we went on an expedition to Pet Food Express, where we all three of us had baths, although only two of them were intentional.

Dog of the Day: Odin the Pomeranian Repeat Customer

Posted on June 8, 2026 by Adam Lang

Last time we saw Odin, he was only three, and only 60% as floofy! Now he’s seven and approximately spherical! (And no, he has not gained any weight, except about half a pound of floof.)

Kind of glad I wasn’t walking a dog when I ran across him, so I could give him the scratches he deserved.

Double Dog Day: Tiny the ‘Mostly German Shepherd’ and Apple the German Shepherd Malamute Akita Husky Mix

Posted on June 5, 2026 by Adam Lang

Look at these two! Tiny (boy, 3) is the one on the right, and is 3/4 German Shepherd. And Apple (girl, also 3) is half German Shepherd, and the other half just a bunch of different breeds. Isn’t she gorgeous! She’s also been shorn recently. I’d say ‘poor pup’ but I think even in San Francisco that might be a slightly more comfortable way to spend the summer.

I get the giggles when I look at Apple with her haircut. No offense, Apple, you just make me happy!

Posted on June 4, 2026 by Adam Lang

We haven’t had a wheely-pup in a while, so I was glad to meet Miso, a six-year-old Maltese poodle and probably other stuff as well mix, and all around happy gal!
