Double Dog Day: Rocket the Australian Shepherd German Shepherd Mix snd Our Friend Henry the Golden Retriever

Posted on July 15, 2026 by Adam Lang

Henry, my dogsitting pal, is in the foreground. Check out Rocket, in the background. I guessed he was part Catahoula, but nope, apparently he’s an Aussie/GSD mix. So pretty!

If you look closely, you can see that Henry has a tennis ball in his mouth.

That’s a patient pup right there!

Dog of the Day: Goldendoodle

Posted on July 13, 2026 by Adam Lang

How did I not get this pup’s name? I’m such a bad boy!

I seem to recall that this was the only way we could get the pup looking in the right direction.

Dog of the Day: Labradoodle Puppy

Posted on July 11, 2026 by Adam Lang

I don’t have any notes for this, but I think that’s a Labradoodle, I am pretty sure it’s a puppy, and I’m absolutely certain that that’s a very happy family right there.

This dog clearly needs lots and lots of hugs. Good thing he’s got such a helpful family!

Dog of the Day: Yoga Corgi Puppy

Posted on July 9, 2026 by Adam Lang

I dropped by the puppy yoga place a while back, and it was corgi day again! (Last time.)

I wasn’t able to get inside this time, but one of the employees saw how interested I was.

That is one mischievous expression right there.

Dog of the Day: Windsor the Irish Setter English Cocker Spaniel Mix

Posted on July 8, 2026 by Adam Lang

Windsor (9) is half English and half Irish. I guess it makes a certain amount of sense that he’s orange, huh?

English Cocker Spaniel Irish Setter Mix
Definitely a first for this combination!

Dog of the Day: Rennie the Korean Jindo

Posted on July 6, 2026 by Adam Lang

Ran into Rennie (10) on the way home from work one day last month. I usually don’t walk home via Huntingdon Square Park, because it involves some rather steeper terrain than most of the other ways I can go, but I think I might start doing it more often. There is always a lovely crowd of dogs and their humans socializing there in the evenings.

There used to be wine-and-cheese get-togethers there occasionally, pre-COVID. I wonder if they’ve started again?

Sunday Switchup: Crow

Posted on July 5, 2026 by Adam Lang

I have had an eventful weekend! Well, sort of. On Thursday I felt like I was coming down with a head cold, which kind of sucks. On Friday afternoon I was washing my hands and I suddenly sneezed so hard that I tweaked my back, which promptly went into muscle spasms. And every time I coughed, sneezed, or moved for the next day it went into spasm.

Getting old! Every day is a new adventure.

My back isn’t spasming any more, anyway. So have a crow.

He was scolding me, so I took his picture. He kept scolding me.

Beast of the Day: Hair Bear!

Posted on July 2, 2026 by Adam Lang

Our last Pride post: I ran into this pup at pride and immediately thought of a 1970s cartoon called Help, It’s The Hair Bear Bunch!

Look at that. Gotta admit, it’s impressive!

Could definitely be in a hair band!

Amazingly calm, for such a chaotic situation, too.

LION of Pride!

Posted on July 1, 2026 by Adam Lang

I have a couple more pups to post from Pride. This one looks suspiciously leonine!

You would think a lion would be more freaked out by crowds.

Totally took everything in stride!
