The Dogs of San Francisco

Dog of the Day: Piper the Australian Cattle Dog Mix

Posted on October 25, 2017 by Adam Lang

Piper (1) is a very inquisitive sort.

This is the first ‘Sprout’ I’ve run across. I love the name.

Sprout had some of the most cynical expressions I’ve ever seen on a dog’s face.

Which is funny because she was anything but.

Dog of the Day: Joey the Papillon Chihuahua Mix

Posted on October 24, 2017 by Adam Lang

Little Joey (6) is a country dog in a big city, but he’s figuring things out.

Look at the foozly ears! Almost as long as the hair that grows out of my ears if I don’t trim it.

I got kisses, so I think he’s adapting just fine.

Dog of the Day: Sundae the American Eskimo Dog

Posted on October 23, 2017 by Adam Lang

Sundae is a ten-year-old Eskie who I just met today! He is an utterly awesome little fluffball, even if he did try a little bit of covert leg-humping.

Manic grins.

For EVERYONE!

Dog of the Day: Luna the Happy German Shepherd

Posted on October 19, 2017 by Adam Lang

I dogsat for Luna earlier this year. She loves swimming. She loves fetch. That means swimming plus fetch is loves squared!

I don’t know why she bothered to shake. She clearly knew she would be jumping back in the water like 20 seconds later.

I think she was still less than a year old when these pictures were taken, but I don’t recall exactly. Anyway, quite young.

Dog of the Day: Siberian Husky

Posted on October 18, 2017 by Adam Lang

Is it… could it be… a sighting of the rare ‘Crescent Moon-Moon‘?

This is outside one of my favorite restaurants in Oakland: Crepevine. Great salads, delicious crepes, wonderful desserts, and a dog-friendly seating section. What’s not to like?

Dog of the Day: Baylie the Boxer Pit Bull Terrier Mix

Posted on October 17, 2017 by Adam Lang

We’ve seen Baylie before, but it has been quite a while… the last time she was five months old, and now she’s four years old. Still the same goofy gal, though!

She has that expression all the time.

Giant tongue.

Eminently distractible, too. She spent about half of my photos looking away from the camera.

Goofy faces, all the time. Nobody who lives with this dog could possibly be sad for long.

Dog of the Day: Samoyed

Posted on October 16, 2017 by Adam Lang

SO. FLUFFY.

There seems to be the weirdest stomach bug going around here. Low level, but at least on me it has lasted FOREVER. Yugh!

I wonder what breed would win a ‘softest fur’ competition? Samoyeds are certainly a strong contender.

Dog of the Day: Jazz the Flat-Coat Retriever Again!

Posted on October 13, 2017 by Adam Lang

An abbreviated (no captions, no hovertext) post today, since I’m having to post from my phone. But I’m dogsitting Jazz again, first time in a while, so here she is!

Edit: Welp, that broke the site for a good long while. The iOS app is pretty much catastrophically bad.
