Site News

UNNNNGGGHH. The site was down for OVER TWO DAYS. And of that time, I was working on trying to fix it for about … 35 hours. I wasn’t even on any strong pain killers!

All of this just to upgrade from Mac OS X 10.10 to macOS 10.13. Apple RAIDs and incompatible server versions and disallowed kexts, oh my.

The good news is, we appear to be back up and running, and won’t have to go through anything like this again for a while. After all, the last time was in 2012.

Dog of the Day: Chihuahua

Welp. That upgrade attempt didn’t go well. Going to have to try again tomorrow.

In the mean time, say hello to this gentleman. I don’t know his name but he seems very refined to me.

Dapper! Look at that little bow tie.

Chihuahua Mix

Yup. He’s a dapper little lens-licker.

Dog of the Day: Not Really Sure

Some site news: I am taking advantage of some recovery-from-surgery time to upgrade the DoSF server. While high on codeine. Therefore, there’s a fair chance that the site might be down some or all of tomorrow.

Now, on to the dog! I don’t know who or what she is, but isn’t she pretty?

Large White Dog

I am pretty sure she was either blind or deaf. (Many white dogs are one or both.)

White Dog Jumping For Cheese Treat

I seem to vaguely recall blind. But whichever it was sure didn’t seem to keep her from her cheese puffs.

Dog of the Day: Labrador Retriever Mix

Very timid pup. Adorable, though.

Yellow Labrador Retriever Mix

Just the tiniest little bit of ear-flop. Perfect!

Double Dog Day: German Shepherd Puppy And Australian Shepherd Mix Puppy

Two previously adoptable puppies from the SPCA! They were there when I visited a couple weeks ago, but they’re gone now, happily adopted.

Eeee the one floppy ear!

German Shepherd Puppy

German shepherds look so scrawny in their adolescent years.

Dog of the Day: Dottie the Labrador Retriever Puppy

Boy, I have been a total Hallo-weenie this week! Missed two days in a row. One was because I didn’t get home from a Halloween party until after midnight and then it took me nearly an hour to get the makeup off of my face so I could go to bed. But last night, no excuses. I’m a bad boy.

Unlike Dottie the doggie here. She’s 4 months old and a very, very good girl.

Mom got her to sit with very little effort. And then she got up again instantly. Repeat thirty times.

Oh well, at least it looked like good exercise.

Dog of the Day: Unknown Terrier

I am so bad at identifying little whitish fluffy dogs. Cute as they may be.

Off White Terrier Of Some Kind

Someone should make a web site called ‘Dogs With Bangs’.

She knew about, but did not make it to, the sloth gathering.

Autumn has kitty-sat Luna a couple of times, and was kind enough to take some pictures for me.
