Autumn and I were out wandering around the Marina and the Fisherman’s Wharf areas today, and we got a couple of surprises. First we ran into the cutest little long-haired miniature dachshund. And when I heard that her name was ‘Chloe’, I thought, ‘Wow, that sounds familiar!’ And sure enough, I found her. She was one of the first dogs I took a picture of, in December of 2009, and was one of the first 50 I posted, in January of 2010. She is just as adorable now (4.5 years old) as she was almost four years ago, I think you’ll agree.
Those ears are just as silky as you think they are.
They really do look like miniature golden retrievers with short legs.
Aww man. Disgruntled dachshund.
I really love seeing old friends.
And speaking of old friends… only half an hour or so later, Autumn and I were sitting outside a cafe and enjoying the sunshine when who should walk by, but our old friend (and repeat star) Baloo!
Last couple times I saw him, Baloo was with a Yorkie named ‘Romeo’. This isn’t Romeo, although I didn’t get her name. Apparently Baloo just likes Yorkies! (But hey, who doesn’t?)
This is the first time I’ve seen Baloo’s serious face.
I think he was headed somewhere important.
Hi Adam,
I just LOVE long-haired miniature Dacshunds, especially this red color. I have ‘saved’ your pictures of Chloe in my iPhoto album. Thanks for posting.
Blessings, Beverly
Yeah, aren’t they gorgeous? And she is an elegant and dignified example of the breed, too. Which is funny, because I would never have thought I’d be describing a dachshund as ‘elegant’.
Three splendid canines!! Great start to the week.
It was for me, too. I love seeing that the pups I saw when I first started doing this are still out there causing mischief and soliciting belly rubs.
