Dog of the Day: Kai the Basenji

Posted on October 4, 2018 by Adam Lang

Posted on September 11, 2018 by Adam Lang

Tadich is named after the oldest continuously-run restaurant in California, and the third oldest in the United States. Which is pretty amazing… who would have thought the third oldest restaurant in the US would be in California of all places? … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Kona the Basenji German Shepherd Mix Puppy

Posted on November 25, 2015 by Adam Lang

Kona is nine months old and may well actually be a basenji German shepherd mix, despite the fact that (as referenced in a comment on this post) rather a wide variety of things get labeled ‘basenji mix’. Well, whatever she … Continue reading →

Posted on December 2, 2011 by Adam Lang
