The Dogs of San Francisco

Sunday Switchup: A Mountain of Clouds

Posted on January 5, 2025 by Adam Lang

Was driving home a few weeks ago and ran across this sight. I am a sucker for cloud-mountains, so I had to pull over and grab a picture or two.

Clouds And Fog In The Mountains South Of San Francisco — I got some really nice pictures in the Great Smokeys back a few decads ago, but I’ve since lost them. Boo.

Double Dog Day: Fritz the French Bulldog and Loulou the Cockapoo

Posted on January 3, 2025 by Adam Lang

The name Fritz always reminds me of the animated feature Wizards, which I realize is a pretty obscure reference, but what the heck. Anyway, this Fritz (2) is not a wizard, though he seems just as attentive as one. On the other hand, Loulou (a girl, 10) is more laid-back, but every bit as friendly.

French Bulldog Sitting At A Restaurant Table — He saved his barking for when I decided I had to leave. Funny that.

French Bulldog And Cockapoo Sitting At Restaurant Table — Loulou was definitely a little mellower.

Cockapoo Sitting On A Retaurant Chair — She wasn’t very forward, but she was definitely up for some petting.

Double Dog (Birth)Day: Boba the Birthday Girl and Biggie the Nearly Birthday Boy Pugs

Posted on January 2, 2025 by Adam Lang

Boba’s fifth birthday is today! Happy Boba-day! And Biggie’s is a week from today! Man, these two must be peeved: Christmas and BOTH birthdays are so close together that they probably only get one party!

Incredibly Derpy Pug In A Cart — That… is one ridiculous pug face.

Happy New Year’s Dog: Peach the Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Posted on January 1, 2025 by Adam Lang

This is going to be a rough year for me, for a variety of reasons, and probably for a lot of other folks as well. So I think we need a very happy New Year’s Dog to keep our spirits up. Hence, Peach (2, and a boy!)

Pembroke Welsh Corgi With Extremely Happy Face Staring Into Camera — Peach is a trim corgi. No fat, all muscle and bone. Peach is a trim, *thirty-eight pound corgi*. Dayum, Peach, you could play professional corgball!

Happy Pembroke Welsh Corgi Looking Approximately Spherical — I promise, the apparent spherical nature is an optical illusion.

Dog of the Day: Rocco the Goldendoodle Puppy

Posted on December 30, 2024 by Adam Lang

I got a bunch of adorable pictures of Rocco (11 weeks) and his mom, but he was blurry in all but two and mom was blurry in those two, so I’m afraid you’ll just have to settle for a slightly less adorable one of just Rocco.

Dog of Christmas Day: Winty (Winter Melon!) the Schauzer Poodle Mix

Posted on December 25, 2024 by Adam Lang

Winty, Winty the schoodle! She is three, and already an accomplished traveller. However, I choose to believe that she was also patiently waiting in this bag under the Christmas tree this morning, ready to leap out and lick the nose of some surprised kid.

White Schnoodle Sticking Her Head Out Of A Black Duffel — One of the few pleasant things about hanging out in an airport is getting to see all the dogs who rack up more airline miles than you do.

Dog of Christmas Eve: Zay the White Swiss Shepherd

Posted on December 24, 2024 by Adam Lang

I’m gonna guess that ‘Say’ was a victim of autocorrect, but it’s the closest thing I have to a name so I’m going to go with it. Anyway, he’s a he (edited), and he’s four, and he seems very right for the festive season.

Edit: He’s a he, and his name is Zay, according to a little birdie down in the comment section. I see how autocorrect got me on the name, but I have no idea what got me on the gender.
