Dog of the Day: Ellie the Silver Labrador Retriever

I had a lot of trouble identifying this gal. Fortunately, her guardian was accommodating enough to tell me her name (Ellie) and breed: Labrador retriever. I never thought I’d have trouble identifying one of those, but she’s a special case: … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: Rottweiler

Another Rottie, for today. They’re not a breed I’ve spent a lot of time with, but I like them. The eyebrows always make them look goofy, and they often seem quite happy to reinforce that opinion by dancing around and … Continue reading
