Posted on October 15, 2018 by Adam Lang

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.

Purr!

I didn’t have the heart to poke the toe-beans and wake up the kitty.

Dog of the Day: Australian Cattle Dog Mix

Posted on October 12, 2018 by Adam Lang

It’s in the 30s here. I could use a little bit of the sunshine that this pup is basking in.

Australian cattle dog/collie, maybe?

Dog of the Day: Bertie the Unknown Mixed Breed

Posted on October 11, 2018 by Adam Lang

Bertie’s a tough one. Any ideas from the peanut gallery?

Whatever she is, I love the extra mascara on her left eye.

This expression makes me want to smooch her between the ears.

Dog of the Day: Grand Dame

Posted on October 10, 2018 by Adam Lang

I’m not sure what she is, although she’s almost certainly part poodle. Whatever she is, though, she must have been absolutely gorgeous in her heyday.

Large Poodle Mix Sitting In A Car

So utterly well-behaved. She just sat there and watched the world go by outside the car, quiet and calm.

Dog of the Day: Diamond the Bullmastiff Pit Mix Puppy

Posted on October 8, 2018 by Adam Lang

I was planning on saving Diamond for a rainy day but I just couldn’t wait. She is 2 months old and every bit as precious as her name implies.

I ran across her in Milwaukee, where I am at the moment. So now she is an honorary Dog of San Francisco.

You can see that she already had the right attitude for one!

Sunday Switchup: Milkweed Pod With Bugs

Posted on October 7, 2018 by Adam Lang

I remember when I was a kid I used to wander around poking at milkweed pods and playing with all the cute little beetles. As far as I know they don’t exist out West, and I don’t think I ever saw them around where I went to high school either, but I sure did see plenty in Michigan and Massachusetts.

Caturday Supplement: Calamakitty

Posted on October 6, 2018 by Adam Lang

I’m at Autumn’s folks’ house, sitting next to Calamity the kitty cat (16-ish). She is thinking deep thoughts.

She lives with two large hyper dogs. I wonder if cats can get PTSD. “Pet Traumatic Stress Disorder”?

Dog of the Day: Kai the Basenji

Posted on October 4, 2018 by Adam Lang

Kai is just about the least concerned basenji ever. How can I tell? She doesn’t have the forehead wrinkles! What she does have, however, is an instagram page that contains at least one schnozz-only shot.

Someone is looking a bit derpy here.

Dog of the Day: Rosie the Schnoodle-y Therapy Dog

Posted on October 3, 2018 by Adam Lang

There’s a ring to the name of Rosie, a ring ding ding to the name of Rosie…

Rosie is a schnauzer/poodle mix, and she’s 4 years old. She is a volunteer therapy pup, helping people at Kaiser Permanente Redwood City who are nervous about getting surgery, whether it’s them getting it or their family or friends. What a good dog!

That’s a very… intense expression.
