Dog of the Day: Border Collie

Posted on January 26, 2012 by Adam Lang

Because we haven’t seen one in a while. An anecdote I ran into on reddit recently (here): Yeah, my border collie totally gets that I control the car. On days when I come home without the kid, she gets concerned … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Pity (Pitufina) the Chilly Chihuahua/Rat Terrier Mix

Posted on January 25, 2012 by Adam Lang

Pitufina apparently means ‘Smurfette’ in Spanish. The things you learn, running a dog blog. Anyway, it’s been a pretty chilly few weeks in San Francisco, and Pity isn’t liking it much!

Dog of the Day: Buddy the Adoptable Smooth-Coated Fox Terrier

Posted on January 24, 2012 by Adam Lang

I find several things about this post hard to believe. First, that Buddy is still adoptable, and nobody has snatched him up yet. He’s so sweet and friendly! Second, that this is not just the first smooth-coated fox terrier we’ve … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Shamus the Skye Terrier

Posted on January 23, 2012 by Adam Lang

It’s getting harder and harder to find dog breeds that I haven’t covered yet, but when I do, they’re often pretty ridiculous. Like this young (well, three-and-a-half-year-old) pup, with ears that … well… I’m not sure what to say about … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Ceili!

Posted on January 22, 2012 by Adam Lang

Some wintery pictures of the honorary Dog of San Francisco, Ceili the wonder pooch. These came from Christmas in Indiana, where Autumn’s family (and Ceili) live. (Actually, a couple days after Christmas… it wasn’t snowy on Christmas.) Ceili loves the … Continue reading →

Double Dog Day: Fletch the Great Pyrenees and Zoë the Akbash Dog

Posted on January 20, 2012 by Adam Lang

Ran across these three (two dogs and one man) in South Park, last September. I might’ve caught them on a bad day… they all seemed a trifle testy, although I did a couple of smiles out of Fletch eventually. Still, … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Paddington the Pomeranian/Dachshund Mix Puppy

Posted on January 19, 2012 by Adam Lang

Pretty cute! The breed mix is a guess, based on head shape and ear floof, and that a similar-looking puppy pupped… er, popped up here a while back. Similarly adorable, I’d say. When this picture was taken (last September) Paddington was … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Fergi the Terrified Australian Cattle Dog/German Shorthaired Pointer Mix

Posted on January 17, 2012 by Adam Lang

Poor Fergi. Someone was pretty mean to her at some time in the past, and she’s still scared of everybody. Dogs like that make me want to hug them and tell them that everything’s going to be all right, but … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Argos the Kerry Blue Terrier

Posted on January 15, 2012 by Adam Lang

Argos is named for Odysseus’s dog in the Odyssey, the one that was the first to greet (and recognize) Odysseus when he finally returned home. What an awesome dog name! (Although Autumn maintains that, as an Irish dog, he should … Continue reading →
