Posted on May 4, 2019 by Adam Lang

A kitty that the SPCA had up for adoption.

Long-Haired Tuxedo Cat

Scruff-tastic. I think someone may have needed a bath.

Dog of the Day: Moony the Australian Shepherd Puppy

Posted on May 3, 2019 by Adam Lang

Moony (14 weeks old!) has a bit of a mad and roving eye, one might say. She was too pooped to pup when I saw her today, but I think I’ll be seeing her again soon.

There’s No Dog Like an Old Dog of the Day

Posted on May 2, 2019 by Adam Lang

I have no idea what breed he is, what his name is, or how old he is, but he’s a sweet, sweet pup.

I was thinking he was a tripod but now I think his leg is just folded over.

In his years of life, he has certainly learned the ‘I’m sad, you should pet me’ expression.

Dog of the Day: Zen Yorkie

Posted on May 1, 2019 by Adam Lang

I think we all need a little less crazy and a little more basking in sunbeams right around now.

Dog of the Day: Koko the Corglet

Posted on April 30, 2019 by Adam Lang

Koko’s name means ‘Pickle’ in Japanese. (Ask me how I know this!) I did not ask his folks whether that was intentional, but thinking on it, and looking at the body shape of a corgi, I wouldn’t be surprised if it were.

See? Pickle-shaped!

Check out the ears! I’ve never seen them colored quite like that. The backs are solid black.

So tiny! So adorably little! (8 weeks old!) Too much cute for captions or hovertext: just enjoy!

Dog of the Day: Oatmeal the Shiba Inu Mix

Posted on April 25, 2019 by Adam Lang

Oatmeal has a very plaintive look to him. I’m not actually sure if he’s a Shiba mix or not, but he’s got some spitz-y breed in him, that’s for sure!

He’s got a very plaintive look, doesn’t he?

Dog of the Day: Augie the Berger Picard

Posted on April 24, 2019 by Adam Lang

We’ve only seen one Berger Picard before, and it was missing a certain something that Augie has. Well, yes, Iris only had three legs, but that’s not what I’m referring to: she didn’t have ears that were quite as ridiculous as Augie’s.

So skinny! Gawk gawk gawk. At first I thought he was part Irish wolfhound.

He looks so serious in these. (Except those ridiculous ears.) Hint: he is not serious. He is goofy.

Dog of the Day: Balder the Beautiful

Posted on April 23, 2019 by Adam Lang

When I ran into Baldr, I kept thinking that I’d run into a dog named Baldr before (though I was thinking they had spelled it ‘Baldur’), but I couldn’t find anything on the site. And then the next day, the very next day, I ran into Balder! This Balder is ‘the Beautiful’, and is a standard poodle. And since I found out how that name was spelled, I went and looked, and lo and behold: I have met him before… in 2011! He was 3 then, so I guess he’s 11-ish now. You wouldn’t know it, would you?

Balder was looking especially beautiful, since he’d just been groomed the day before.

He liked poking his nose all up in my bidnezz.

Dog of the Day: Baldr the Blue-tee-ful!

Posted on April 22, 2019 by Adam Lang

I met Baldr the Blue (Australian cattle dog with a tail!) when I was visiting a friend’s office. Baldr did not want me to talk to my friend. Baldr did not want me to go to the bathroom. Baldr did not want me to pay attention to anything but Baldr, because Baldr has an uncanny sense for who can, in fact, be suckered into paying attention to Baldr.

Baldr was, of course, named after the Norse god. Who was ALSO amazingly beautiful.

He got a little noisy. I think I may have disturbed his coworkers. (He is, of course, a Chief Happiness Officer.)

Baldr’s favorite toy.
