We saw this guy outside a cafe on Polk Street and were bowled over by his sheer awesomeness. Is he a dog? A bear? A Scottish Highland cow? A Scottish Highland dogbearcow? We asked his owner, and it turns out … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: Standard Poodle

Confession time: I really don’t like poodles that are cut in the ‘poodle cut’. (I know, I know, not exactly a brave observation, since lots of people don’t. But I’m supposed to like dogs, right?) But I have to say, … Continue reading
