The Dogs of San Francisco

Puppy of the Day: Neela the Miniature Dachshund

Posted on August 27, 2024 by Adam Lang

Neela (9 months) is a little dapple-dy dachshund!

Woman Holding Dapple Miniature Dachshund Puppy — She looks nervous. She is not.

Dapple Dachshund Puppy — Given half a chance she would be rampaging through half of San Francisco.

Dog of the Day: Prince Henry the Long, the Sub-Miniature Golden Retriever With Almost No Legs

Posted on August 23, 2024 by Adam Lang

You thought yesterday’s pup was a small golden retriever? Check out Prince Henry (5)! No matter what you tell me, I refuse to believe that he isn’t a cleverly miniaturized golden retriever who was standing behind the door when the legs were handed out.

(Oops, I almost forgot: FOOOOOOFLY WIENER!)

Long-Haired Golden Miniature Dachshund — I got another live photo, by accident, but hey, happy accident. I love seeing that tail going.

Long-Haired Golden Miniature Dachshund Sticking His Nose In The Camera Lens — I love the name. Prince Henry the Long suits him down to the ground. Which admittedly isn’t very far.

Long-Haired Golden Miniature Dachshund Licking His Lips — I just noticed that we haven’t seen any dog-licking-his-lips pics in ages. This must not stand!

Dog of the Day: Enzo the Miniature Golden Retriever

Posted on August 22, 2024 by Adam Lang

Oh, they added a bunch of golden and a little bit of this and that and they got Enzo, 3. And he’s glad they did, and so am I!

Woman Leaning Down To Pet Miniature Golden Retriever — Almost as many dogs as there were people at this street fair, but Enzo still attracted more than his fair share of attention.

Miniature Golden Retriever Scratching His Ear — Of course, everyone had to take a breather when Enzo got an itchy ear.

Dog of the Day: Pickle the Bouvier Des Flandres

Posted on August 20, 2024 by Adam Lang

I always get bouviers mixed up with some of the other similar European breeds, but I don’t think Pickles (5) minded. She seemed happy to see me anyway.

Black Bouvier Des Flanders — Not sure how well she could see, but she smells pretty well!

Dog of the Day: Charlie the Scruffy Little Terrier Mix

Posted on August 19, 2024 by Adam Lang

Charlie (6) is a rescue from The Milo Foundation. Nobody knows quite what breeds he has in him, but nobody’s going to hold that against him.

Small White Scruffy Mutt Standing On Woman's Lap — Ran across Milo at a street fair I went to a little while ago. He was having a blast people-watching.

Small White Scruffy Terrier Mix — Which seems only fair, since I was having a blast dog-watching.

Dog of the Day: Red the Flat Coat Retriever

Posted on August 16, 2024 by Adam Lang

I do not, in fact, know the story of why Red is named Red. But that’s fine, it’s always nice to maintain an air of mystery, right?

Black Flat Coat Retriever — Haven’t seen a flat-coat in a while. This one knows exactly what he likes: he instantly walked between my legs and stopped halfway so I had to pet his butt.

Dog of the Day: Pants the Australian Cattle Dog

Posted on August 15, 2024 by Adam Lang

Pants is a year old, and is almost entirely ACD, mixed with a tiny bit of Australian shepherd. And it’s easy to tell how he got his name, and it’s not because he’s ‘simply pants’.
