We still miss Tidus!

He got himself into that (yoghurt), and eventually out of it as well.Tidu

Sunday Switchup: The Best Hood Ornament Ever

I saw a nifty little trucklet out in front of my office the other day. I don’t think Mack makes anything this small any more, and I think that’s a real shame. No idea how their trucks were but their hood ornaments were great!

It has an amazing mustache, doesn’t it?

Dog of the Day: Connor the… Humongous Dachshund?

Connor, Autumn’s family dog, seems to have transmogrified!

Shaved Irish Setter Poodle Mix

Can you believe how different he looks? Heck, even when I lost all my hair I didn’t look THAT different.

Dog of the Day: Krypto the Korean Jindo White Shepherd Mix

I love Krypto’s name: he was named after Superman’s dog, who he definitely resembles. And he’s super-friendly!

White Shepherd Korean Jindo Mix Grinning

I saw Krypto out the window of the restaurant I was eating at and promptly (if temporarily) abandoned my dinner.

His folks were very nonchalant about the whole thing. I suspect he gets a lot of attention.

Dog of the Day: Roman the Labradoodle Puppy

I ran into Roman (6 months old) a couple days ago. He was so wiggly!

Golden Retriever Poodle Mix Puppy

Just a little teeny peeking tongue.

Labradoodle Puppy

Pretty little tag. Olive branches and a a heart and a dog and… I have no idea what it means but it’s pretty.

Labradoodle Puppy

Those are the whitest teeth I have ever seen on a dog, even on a puppy.

Dog of the Day: Mario Edwardo Bernal the Repeat Customer Chow German Shepherd Shar Pei Mix

I ran into Edward, AKA Mario Edwardo Bernal, the other day, and I thought, ‘Hey, he looks familiar!’ I asked his dad if he remembered me, and he said, ‘Yeah, hey, you ran into him AGES ago!’ And I looked him up, and sure enough, I ran into him in 2014 and posted him in 2015. I’m not surprised I remembered him, he’s very distinctive — and distinguished — looking!

Chow German Shepherd Border Collie Mix With Partial Heterochromia

We thought Edwardo here was a golden mix, but since 2015 he’s had a genetic test, and he came out 1/4 each chow, German shepherd, and border collie, plus 1/4 ‘miscellaneous’.

Dog of the Day: SF SPCA Mutt

I dropped by the SPCA not too long ago and found this gal hanging out. I’m going to guess Australian cattle dog/pit mix, but you can’t hold me to it.

Australian Cattle Dog American Pit Bull Terrier Mix

It’s amazing how different dogs’ attitudes are when they’re stuck in a shelter. I have no doubt this one got snapped up very quickly.

PIRATE of the Day: YARRR!

This is from a CorgiCon a while back. Pretty terrifying, isn’t it?

Pembroke Welsh Corgi In A Pirate Costume Standing In The Bow Of A Fake Ship

A lot of the dogs posed in the ship, but this one was especially good at it.

Dog of the Day: Dexter the Great Dane

Dexter (5) lost his eye to an eye infection when he was a puppy. Didn’t slow him down any though!

Just about the least drooly Dane I’ve seen

Look, another Molly! This one is a golden that I met on the bus.

Got a very intense stare, huh?
