Puppy of the Day: Monny (Monaghan) the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Poodle Mix

I ran into Monny (4 months) on Saturday, when it was damp and dreary and dim outside. Consequently, all of the super puppy action shots I got are too blurry to post. Happily, this one came out okay.

Monny is named after an Irish pub in the Marina, Monaghan’s. Perfect for a ginger!

Sunday Special: Happy Fifteenth BirthDogDay, Daisy the Brittany Spaniel!

And just in case you weren’t sure, that’s fifteen HUMAN years, and Daisy is still going strong, taking long walks and even doing a little dancing on the side.

Happy ADOPTION DAY to Daisy the Poodle (Mix?) (Also Featuring Her New Sister Violet the Pekingese Mix)

Violet (7) and her folks just adopted a new pup, Daisy (also 7) today! That’s even better than a birthday, because the present is a new life!

Dog of the Day: Tony Stark the ‘Sixty Percent Husky And Stuff’

Hey, I don’t make these things up, that’s what Tony’s dad said. He’s also a boy (predictably) and four years old.

He’s also ‘very interested in my dinner’.

But ultimately was quite willing to be distracted.

Dog of the Day: Goofy the Bull Terrier

Now what did Goofy (female, 7) do to deserve a name like that? Well, some pretty goofy stuff, as documented on her instagram.

Don’t tell anybody, but I got to pet Goofy. I feel very privileged.

Dog of the Day: (Awesome) Sauce the Shiba Inu

I must admit, I have never met a pup named Sauce before. However, I’ve run across Waffles and Pancakes and a Cheeseburger, so I guess a Sauce isn’t out of line. This particular one may look like a puppy, but she’s actually five, and very saucy indeed.

She doesn’t look like sauce, she looks like a perfectly campfire-browned marshmallow!

Saturday Special: Day After BirthDog

I ran into Rafael (aka Rafa) today, and discovered that it was his fourth birthday YESTERDAY. So I decided that he deserved a spot, even though it is technically Caturday. So say happy slightly belated birthday to this gorgeous goldendoodle.
