Dog of the Day: Charlie the Finnish Spitz Mix

Another ‘I have no clue’ dog, but Autumn did have a clue on this one: she thinks it’s a golden retriever/collie mix, or maybe an Irish setter/collie. I have no idea. All I know is that I love this dog. … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: French Bulldog

Today’s dog is another first for DoSF: a French bulldog. French bulldogs are another breed that Autumn and I are somewhat conflicted about. On the one hand, they look goofy and not always cute and have the terrible breathing trouble … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: Australian Shepherd

Such cute dogs. But I always feel sorry for them. Seems to me that half the fun of being a dog is having a tail. One more picture after the break.

Dog of the Day: Border Collie (?)

We’re not sure what this guy was, since it’s been a while since we took the pictures, and none of them were much clearer than this one. But I think this one’s awesome anyway. It helps to know that this … Continue reading

Today we have a venerable pup: a 13-year-old Akita. (Akita life expectancy is generally considered to be 10 to 12 years.) She seemed like she was moving a little slower than she used to, but she was still alert, happy, … Continue reading
