Sunday Switchup: Hawk Tuah

Autumn was driving down the road in Ireland the other day and she saw a big bird in the road. Who hopped out of the way, rather than flew. So she went and grabbed a local friend and captured it and took it to a wildlife rehab place.

Caturday Supplement: Rua the Irish Kitty

Rua is a kitty sent in by our roving reporter in Ireland (Autumn). According to Autumn, Rua is ‘very sweet but turns to evil quickly’. According to the Irish language, Rua’s name means ‘red’. According to me, EEEEE FLUFFY KITTY EEEEE!

Dog of the Day: Quill the Golden Retriever

Quill is 2, and not nearly as sarcastic as the pictures make her look.

Dog of the Day: Wheelie the Poodle Repeat Customer

Wheelie! Wheelie is 14, and I’ve taken pictures of him several times before, starting literally a decade ago. Even though he’s reeeeeally tough to photograph, I even managed to post him once before. But I still didn’t remember him when I saw her a couple of weeks ago. I am such a bad person.

Edit: According to one of our readers, Wheelie is a boy! Management regrets the error, and has corrected the text.

I think he forgave me. Eventually.

New Breed of the Day: Anjee the Pyrenean Sheepdog

Just when I think I’ve seen every breed that’s out there in this wide world of ours, I run into something new. Anjee (4) is a new one on me! Pyrenean sheepdogs are the siblings of the Great Pyrenees: the Great is a livestock guard dog, and the shepherd is for herding. So. Awesome. But I don’t get why there aren’t more Anjees floating around out here. The breed is smart and friendly and (I’d guess) not nearly as stubborn as the Great Pyrenees.

Pyrenean Shepherd
Plus Pyrenean shepherds are super healthy, their average lifespan is 15 to 18 years! Daaaaamn.

Sunday Switchup: Irish Countryside

Autumn didn’t just send me a catsnoot, she also sent me a really remarkable picture from her current trip to Ireland. I’m so jealous. Maybe someday.

Double Dog Day: Juneau the German Shepherd and Gracie the German Shepherd Mix

Juneau is, despite the name, not a malamute mix, she is a four year old German shepherd. Her friend, Gracie (6), is mostly German shepherd, but she’s a quarter Australian shepherd.

Quite an expression shift! (And some master-level side-eye.)
