Dog of the Day: Great Pyrenees

Surely this must be the very queen of floof!

I wonder if she’s a nervous sort and that’s a Thundershirt-style thing, or if it’s just an alternative to a halter.

Caturday Supplement

A kitty I met today! She was impatient with my photographic shenanigans and eager to have her cheeks rubbed.

Obviously vicious guard cat.

See? LOOK AT THE TEEFS!

Dog of the Day: Iris the Happy Berger Picard Tripod

Iris lost her leg in a tragic high-speed collision. No, she wasn’t hit by a car: she hit a rock at high speed. I would say ‘fortunately it hasn’t slowed her down any’, except in this case it’s more like ‘fortunately it seems to have slowed her down a little bit’ since she still has her three other legs!

PS: Wow, is this really our first berger picard? Still having firsts after all these years.

Yes, there’s another leg back there.

Dog of the Day: Joy the 16-Week-Old Bernese Mountain Dog

I took these last year… how did I forget to post them until now? Joy was only sixteen weeks old in these pictures and had just graduated from San Francisco Puppy Prep. And man, she was proud as heck!

I got to give her a liver snap. Yum!

Sunday Switchup: Unusual Planter

These folks have marigolds in planters next to their front porch, which is concrete and raised about three feet off the ground. There’s a crack in the front porch, too. Which they have also planted a marigold in. I love it.

Caturday Supplement: Two MilwauKitties

Is it Caturday? Sure didn’t seem like it… I worked all day today, and then come home to try to deal with furnace problems in my RV before it got down to 27 degrees (Fahrenheit, natch) tonight and froze all my water. And to think I was going to do laundry tonight.

Instead, meet two kitties. The piebald (black and white) is Willow, and the supremely goofy one is Punkin.

Willow makes a great fuzz therapist, and a dandy paperweight too!

Goofy-Looking Tiger Tabby Cat

The position is funny enough, but look at that cat’s expression. Pure goof.

SOMEBODY managed to shed his coat and halter at the same time.

Fortunately he was caught before he got far. Couple busy streets next to this park.

Dog of the Day: Bathtime Berner

Some dogs like baths more than others.

Dog grins can also mean ‘I am stressed out’. You’ll just have to trust me that this one means ‘THIS IS AWESOME’.

Arty was one year old on the day this picture was taken, and dad had some birthday plans!

It is so cute when they have ears that won’t stay flopped forward.

Eternal puppy with eternal puppydog eyes.
