Dog of the Day: Elly the Pit Bull Corgi Mix

Elly (5) belongs to a coworker of mine, and after seeing her last week I am distraught that I have never before been able to meet her. A pit bull corgi mix? How could you wrap more awesome in one skin than that? I mean you’d have to go right to the Bernese mountain dog corgi mix for that!

In this picture she’s standing up.

In this one she’s sitting down. Do you know how to tell the difference from the front, with a corgi mix?

Neither do I. Unless they’re splayed like this, those stub-tacular legs make it next to impossible to tell.

Sad Dog of the Day: Pit Bull Mix

This is the pup of one of my coworkers, and I am ashamed to say that I have forgotten her name. She is clearly upset, though… just look at her face. I believe she is feeling sorry for a friend of mine, who has suffered a setback today.

“Plaintive” might as well have been invented for her.

Sunday Switchup: What Will They Think Of Next?

A family in the Telegraph Hill area has made their garage door into a neighborhood spectacle. Not by painting it spectacularly, as one might expect in any sensible normal rational ordinary city, but by making it into a giant view screen.

One wonders what the family across the street thinks.

Caturday Supplement: Martial Arts Window Kitty

Our first Macy’s window kitty of the season! This one was having a blast with a little catnip mouse. While I was there it found its way into and out of the litterbox at least three times, bringing litter with it each time. Oh that naughty, naughty mousie.

And that kitty was kung fu fighting, those paws were fast as lightning…

Dog of the Day: Zuzu the Australian Cattle Dog Mix

Zuzu (1) is teensy! I wonder what she is mixed with?

All the pictures of him look plaintive and sad. Trust me, he wasn’t.

I think it may just be the ears and the eyebrows.

Dog of the Day: Magical Trevor the Corgi Sploot Expert

I ran into Magical Trevor not long ago. He’s a two-year-old Pemmie with an advanced degree in corgi-splootation.

He stopped for roughly eight seconds, and… sploot!

Of course, he definitely wanted lots of petting and attention.

He just wasn’t willing to get up to get it.

Dog of the Day: I’m Honestly Not Sure

Another day at the local dog grooming parlor.

I don’t know what he is. He looks like a Lab, except for those EYES.

Sunday Switchup: The Baby Seal Club

I love how expressive seal faces can be.

Three Smiling Seals On A Beach

I have seen a surprised seal, and the expression on its face was a very human look of surprise. Given that, I kind of feel justified in assuming that these three are having a great time.

Caturday Supplement: KitTea Marmie

I love having a doctor’s office that’s right next to KitTea. It gives me an excuse to have my day brightened every time I go down there.

Dog of the Day: Cocoa the Pit Bull Puppy

I didn’t catch whether it was Cocoa, Coco, Koko, or some other variant, but it’s definitely pronounced like the hot chocolate drink, and Cocoa is ridiculously sweet, so I’m going to assume that’s what she’s named after. I do know that she’s 4 months old, and loves everyone and everything.

The two of them had never met before.

It was clearly love at first sight.

She was just as enthusiastic about me. Took some work to keep her far enough away to photograph.
