Dog of the Day: Pasquale the Australian Shepherd

Pasquale is 3, and with those eyes I bet he can charm the sheep right out of the trees! (Ssh. I’m on a roll.)

Tricolor Australian Shepherd With Striking Blue Eyes
I bet the tiny goatee and mustache help too!

Dog of the Day: Bernadoodle

I don’t know who this is, but were he my pup I would name him Wookielegs!

Bernadoodle Tied Up In Front Of A Shop
I get a lot of dog pictures of dogs tied up outside of a local cheese shop. They all seem very happy, too. I’m sure it smells delicious.

Puppy of the Day: Cabo the Bernadoodle

Cabo is only four months old. I have the feeling that mom isn’t going to be manhandling him like this for very much longer!

Smiling Woman Holding Bernadoodle Puppy
She seems to be taking full advantage of the manhandling opportunities while she has them. Big hug!

Birdie of the Day: (Your Bestie) Birdie the Australian Labradoodle

Birdie is 11 months old, and she doesn’t need exposure on my blog to become famous: she’s already got an absolutely awesome instagram account: YourBestieBirdie! (I wish I had a bestie like Birdie!)

Australian Labradoodle With Her Mouth Open
Every single picture I have of Birdie, her mouth is open. Chatty pup!
Australian Labradoodle Howling
I suspect someone was just miffed that I wasn’t petting.

Dog of the Day: Jasper the Belgian Malinois Terrier Mix

We had a Jasper just a few days ago, and here’s another one! This one is 4 years old and absolutely scruffalicious.

You don’t get a half-Malinois with this scruffy a coat very often.

FANG!
Dog Tail With Tiny White Poof On The End
He had a TINY floof of white hairs on the end of his tail. Hard to see against the concrete, but they’re there.

Dog of the Day: Tuxedo the Pomeranian

Tux is a 13-year-old fella, with quite a lot of pep for his age.

Black And White Pomeranian
Pomeranians are among the longest-lived pups I’ve run across. I met one who was twenty!

Looks almost like a raccoon! (An ADORABLE raccoon.)

Dog of the Day: Sprout the Pembroke Welsh Corgi(‘s Butt)

I ran into Sprout on the same day as yesterday’s pup, only Sprout was in O’Hare International, in Chicago.

Pembroke Welsh Corgi Looking Worried
Sprout wasn’t entirely pleased with his travel experience. I can’t say as I blame him, I’m not at my happiest in airports either.
Pembroke Welsh Corgi Butt With Long Tail Stub
My CTO and I have one-on-one sessions periodically. They are on my calendar as ‘Adam & Michael Rating Corgi Butts’. I give this one a 10/10.

Puppy of the Day: Loki the French Bulldog

I ran into Loki on my way home from my Christmas break, in the airport in South Bend, Indiana. I don’t think I’ve ever met a Loki before who wasn’t either a husky or a corgi, but I’m sure this pup is just as mischievous as any other Loki!

Blue Merle French Bulldog Puppy Tilting His Head
I probably would have named him something like ‘Cookies And Cream’ so it’s probably just as well I didn’t name him.

Puppy of the Day: Jasper the Golden Retriever ROCK HOUND!

Jasper is just a puppy, but he’s already got a job: he’s the store dog for a little store called the ‘Rock Hound Rock Shop‘, near Kalamazoo, Michigan, which I visited while I was out in Indiana for Christmas. For this and other acts of extreme cuteness, I hereby name him an honorary Dog of San Francisco!

Golden Retriever Puppy Looking Sad
Jasper milks that ‘I’m a sad puppy dog who does not get enough petting’ face for all it’s worth…

This is how he rests between customers.

Dog of the Day: Clapton the Repeat Customer Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Look who I ran into again: it’s Clapton the corglet!

Red And White Pembroke Welsh Corgi On Green Grass
Clapton has more trouble with his hind legs than I thought (boo for degenerative myelopathy!) but he’s still living his best life, getting out and about every day, and touching grass more often than most of us software engineers. Hooray for Clapton!
