A coworker made a special request: his family’s dog just passed away, and he wondered if I could post a few pictures of her as a sort of ‘goodbye’. Not exactly the sort of thing I’d envisioned when I started … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: Bull Mastiff Smooches

Dog of the Day: Rex the Russian Spaniel Mix

Алло, да, это собака! It’s nice that my four years of Russian class hasn’t left me utterly helpless in the face of Russian-ness. For example, when I meet a beautiful Russian woman of mystery on the streets of San Francisco, I know … Continue reading

Double Dog Day: German Shepherd Mix and Chow Mix

German Shepherd Mix? Almost definitely. Chow mix? Who knows. Distinctive as heck though! (Had a good-sized post I was planning on for today, but business-lunch took more time than I expected, so you get a short one. Soon though.) Edit: … Continue reading
