Dog of the Day: Macaroni the Chi-Weenie Puppy

I just ran into Macaroni (3 months old) a few hours ago, on her first full day in the city, after being adopted yesterday! She lives right around the corner from me, and I hope I’ll be seeing more of her because she’s adorable.

She totally looks like a little bitty Labrador retriever puppy, except the ears.

She’s still getting adjusted, but I managed to get a few smooches, so I think she’s gonna do okay.

Dog of the Day: Jackson the Great Dane

I ran into Jackson back when he was eight months old or so, but I guess none of the photos came out or I would totally have posted them. He’s a year old now, though, and he’s a bit bigger but no less adorable.

Got these pictures at the ferry building on a farmer’s market.

Skinny puppy!

It’s almost a cigar, isn’t it?

Dog of the Day: Madison the Red Labrador Retriever Puppy

Mad mad Madison. She’s ten months old, and a ginger, so it makes sense she’d be a little feisty.

Red Labrador Retriever Puppy Grinning

Total sweetie. Likes belly rubs and nose licking.

And look at that goofy grin.

Dog Pack Day: All The Greyhounds

These four dogs dragged their people together for a meeting. The people were socializing too, but it was pretty clear who was in the driver’s seat.

Edit: Rrgh. Sometimes wordpress does not post when I say to post. And sometimes it makes my whole web site go kaboom. I don’t like either of these, no I don’t.

All rescued racers, of course.

Some of them are goofier than others.

Dog of the Day: Cabby the Newfie

Cabby is short for Cabernet, Newfie is short for Newfoundland Dog, and this pup isn’t short for anything at all, being quite tall. She’s also of drinking age, for a Newfie at least (in her case eleven and a half), and I found her in her favorite watering hole, a charming spot simply known as ‘The Bar’.

You know I was walking by the pub and only came in because I saw her, right?

Just a giant teddy bear.

Caturday Supplement: Two Little Cuties

Look at these two. Just chillin’ in their little fishbowl at the adoption agency, waiting for someone to come and take them home and love them forever. Hint hint hint hint.

Which one would you want?

Hint: ‘both’ is the only acceptable answer.

So Yeah The Outer Mission Is On Fire

Okay, it’s ‘only’ one (smallish) block. But it was a NICE block, with a cheerful little hardware store and a tasty restaurant and a bar I’d never actually been in but I am sure it was nice. And lots of people’s homes. I hope everyone is okay.

Adoptable Dog of the Day: Dennis the Dachshund Jack Russell Terrier Puppy

Just ran into Dennis today, so he is still available at Family Dog Rescue! Hurry and snatch him up because he is adorable, and is a big favorite of the staff there: he’s mellow (especially for a puppy) and sweet but only a tiny bit shy. It took him around a minute to warm up to me, and did not involve any treats. Getting him to pose for the camera? That involved treats.

Posting from phone. Computer is tied up at the moment.

(What? Adoptable? But I have a perfectly good human right here!)


(Don’t you want me any more? ):

Dog of the Day: Ecco the Husky Pomeranian Repeat Customer

Ecco’s back, and he’s gonna be in trouble! Ecco is now 9 months old, and busy ignoring most of what mom tells him to do except for when HE wants to do it. He did not want to sit. He wanted to come sniff me. And so Ecco did.

Huskeranian is such a great word.

Husky Pomeranian Mix

Floooooofy tail.

That’s mom trying to get him to sit. Nope. Not gonna happen.
