Puppy Pile of the Day: More Yogic Dogs

Posted on October 28, 2024 by Adam Lang

I went by the same spot I did last week, and the puppies were awake!

Woman Trying To Sit Up While Covered With Golden Retriever Puppies — “I can’t get up because I’m covered with puppies oh my god help help it’s awful” said nobody ever.

Woman With Golden Retriever Puppy In Her Lap — Heeeey… that doesn’t look like yoga.

Sunday Switchup: Do Do? (Or Not)

Posted on October 27, 2024 by Adam Lang

I dunno, I thought it was funny. Maybe it’s the 8-year-old in me.

Caturday Supplement: Cat Town Kitty!

Posted on October 26, 2024 by Adam Lang

I wandered into the Great Mall last Thursday while I was waiting for my car to recharge. There is, I am delighted to report, a CAT CAFE! Well, not exactly. No food allowed. But close enough! Fifteen dollars for half an hour of kitten-play. I didn’t have half an hour… this time. So I just took a few pictures.

Cat In A Cat Wall Box — I just wanted to say hi. So unfair.

Puppy Pile of the Day: Dog Yoga

Posted on October 25, 2024 by Adam Lang

I ran across a sign outside a local art gallery. It said ‘Yoga With Puppies’. So I peeked through the window.

Woman Doing Yoga With A Pile Of Puppies Behind Her — I guess I might need to try yoga after all, huh?

Pile Of Puppies — Closeup. Not great quality, but… great subject matter!

Dog of the Day: Dexter the Repeat Customer Beagle Dachshund Mix

Posted on October 23, 2024 by Adam Lang

I saw Dexter and wandered over to say hello, and despite the fact that neither he nor I have run across him since ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO, she recognized me, and after she reminded me, I even remembered taking some pictures of him, in a Starbucks down town. He was a Macy’s window pup in 2010, so he is very nearly as old as our dear blog.

Woman Petting Dachshund Beagle Mix — Dexter has, in the last ten years, aged rather less noticeably than I have.

Cute Dachshund Beagle Mix Snoot — It was even tough getting him to settle down for a photo. At fourteen!

Dog of the Day: Nico the Siberian Husky

Posted on October 22, 2024 by Adam Lang

Nico is 1, and quite a goof, don’t you think?

Siberian Husky Tilting His Head To The Side — I have a funny noise that makes about a third of dogs tilt their heads. It’s AWESOME.

Siberian Husky With Puppydog Eyes — Huskies really have that ‘puppydog eyes’ thing down pat.

Siberian Husky Grinning — They also have the most ridiculously smug expressions ever.

Dog of the Day: Archie the Sheepadoodle

Posted on October 21, 2024 by Adam Lang

Archie (1) is a good name for today, because I was just recently thinking about “archy and mehitabel” (the only cockroach-and-cat double act that I know of, at least from the early 20th century, and well worth the read of not just that poem but the rest of their oeuvre as well).

Archie is not a cockroach. He is a floofy sheepadoodle.
