Dog of the Day: Moxie the Golden Retriever Australian Shepherd Mix

I was walking down the street this weekend, and I saw a floofy gold-and-white lump under someone’s bench, so naturally I said, “Ooh, what kind of dog is that!” And the dog’s owner said, “Hey, I know you, you’re that … Continue reading

This is Friday, the 4-month-old Aussie puppy. And guess which day I met Friday? That’s right, it was last… Wednesday! Oh well. Anyway, he was totally adorable, and is a complete blur in over 60 pictures I took. I’m keeping … Continue reading

Confession time: I love all the dogs of San Francisco, but I do have some favorites. Max (4 years old, and border collie/Australian shepherd is an educated guess) is one of them. I could give you a dozen reasons — … Continue reading

Dog of the Day: Leal the Australian Shepherd

Leal is a gorgeous floofy twelve-year old Australian shepherd who looks and acts about three. May we all be so young for so long! Incidentally, his name is, at least according to his human, a Teutonic word meaning ‘one who … Continue reading
