Dog of the Day: Daisy May the Australian Kelpie Mix Puppy

Posted on September 22, 2017 by Adam Lang

Just a cute little puppy with thirty pounds of happy in a twenty pound body. Mom didn’t know what breed she was, but I am guessing there’s some Australian kelpie in there somewhere.

Dog of the Day: Zelda the Australian Cattle Dog

Posted on September 22, 2017 by Adam Lang

I’ve heard legends of this dog! It is said that she is an awesome Aussie, aged 3.

Those sad eyes get me every time.

She was a very, very good girl, all the way there.

Dog of the Day: Sofie the Tervuran Shepherd, Revisited

Posted on September 20, 2017 by Adam Lang

So I ran into Sofie and her dad, and I thought her name sounded familiar. And it turns out that yes, I ran into her before… back in 2010! She’s still around and kicking, at age 13. And distributing happy smooches to passers-by.

I also found out I got her name wrong last time. It’s ‘Sofie’ and not ‘Sophie’. Fixed now.

She’s all smiles.

Dog of the Day: Irish Setter Puppy

Posted on September 19, 2017 by Adam Lang

Last Milwaukee post. This poor pup was getting a little more attention than he could really handle at six months. He was being very good, but he was preeeetty pooped by this time.

Very obedient dog. Well trained even at this age.

Then again, unless they’re actually running and grinning they always look sad and pooped.

Mom was not the only one receiving puppy smooches, by the way. *ahem*

Sunday Sloth Switchup: SLOTHFEST 2017!!

Posted on September 18, 2017 by Adam Lang

On Saturday, Autumn and I went to a Sloth festival. I was somewhat hesitant to advertise it on here, because I wasn’t actually sure there would be anything interesting going on there. They were advertising sloth-based art and ‘sound healing’ and some kind of magic healing massage that doesn’t involve people touching you at all, which, well, that’s not my kind of thing.

But it turns out, well, they had a sloth. Among other beasties. And I had my nose licked by it.

Anyone up for slothfest 2018?

(PS: The lighting was HOOOOORRRRRIBLE.)

Pretty pup!

I feel like the markings on his forehead should mean something. Sergeant Dog, maybe?

Dog of the Day: Baby Jesus the Pit Bull Mix

Posted on September 14, 2017 by Adam Lang

Don’t blame me, I didn’t name him. I just petted and cuddled and photographed him.

Baby Jesus (13, pit bull mix) is the dog of a coworker and friend of mine, and is also now one of Autumn’s clients. He’s slowed down a bit since his puppyhood but he’s still a friend to all.

He’s actually a joint-custody dog, which unfortunately means he’s only come in to hang out with us at work once so far. Hopefully many more to come!

Dog of the Day: Lab Mix

Posted on September 14, 2017 by Adam Lang

I’m not sure. I just know that he’s amazingly mellow and that I ran into him at work. And that that’s a hell of a trick with the tongue.

That’s some talent right there.

I kind of like this one.

Dog of the Day: Chico the Australian Shepherd Mix

Posted on September 12, 2017 by Adam Lang

I ran into Chico The Gorgeous earlier today, and just had to post him. Wow. Just wow.

I feel like I’ve seen Chico before.

Chico is one of those dogs with perfect sucker radar. Spotted me a block away.

Double Dog Day: Florida Dogs!

Posted on September 11, 2017 by Adam Lang

A rare thing on this blog: some pictures from someone besides me. But this is a special occasion: a lot of humans and pups and kitties down in Florida (and still plenty in Texas!) who need help and homes. These two are lucky enough to have a family who took them out to play yesterday, while Irma was still on the horizon. (All the dog parks were closed, so they went out on Tampa Bay, an ‘effective dog park’. And then brought them back to the hotel, where they enjoyed a nice shower and a snooze.) Sleep safe, puppydogs! And humans, too!

Personally, I am donating to Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida and Habitat for Humanity Jacksonville on this one, but there are good charities for helping pets and wildlife too.
