Dog of the Day: Batman the German Shepherd Poodle Mix

Posted on April 25, 2025 by Adam Lang

BA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA etc BATDOG! (Okay it’s funny to those of us of a certain age.) Batman is 1, and is a tireless fighter for justice and, y’know, treats and stuff.

Black Poodle Mix In A Yellow Vest — Looks like a labradoodle, but who knows? Very poodly, anyway.

Silhouette Of Grinning Poodle Mix In Front Of Grace Cathedral — Halfway through the photo session I noticed he was posed in front of Grace Cathedral, so I tried to get a few scenic shots. Didn’t entirely work.

Man Holding Treat Above Poodle Mix's Head In Front of Grace Cathedral — This one didn’t come out too badly though.

Hazel is 9, and… I dunno… Aussie golden maybe? Sooooo soooooft.

Floofy Australian Shepherd Mix Dog — Hooray for fully convertible ears!

Floofy Australian Shepherd Mix Dog With Partial Heterochromia — That is the wildest partial heterochromia I’ve seen in a while! Also: immediately after this photo, Hazel attempted to insert her nose into my navel and did a pretty good job. Yay Hazel!

Posted on April 23, 2025 by Adam Lang

Dunno. No notes on these guys, I just grabbed a quick photo, and I love the expression.

Dubious Looking Black And Tan Dog Looking Over His Shoulder — Ran into them about 15 feet from my front door and I still didn’t manage to get any details.

Dog of the Day: Barry the Whippet

Posted on April 22, 2025 by Adam Lang

Barry’s a good (five-year-old) whippet! (Is it just me or does his getup look an awful lot like a ‘caparison‘?

Whippet In A Grey Tweed Jacket — I think Barry has a distinct resemblance to my logo dog!

Whippet Sticking His Face Into The Camera — Someone smelled… my lunch!

This kitty is a friend of last week’s, but not quite as outgoing.

Dog of the Day: Opie the Saluberman

Posted on April 18, 2025 by Adam Lang

Her dad said Opie (6) is a Saluberman… which is to say, a Doberman pinscher saluki cross! I have definitely never seen one of those before, salukis are super rare just on their own.
