Dog of the Day: Deputy Brown the Jindohuskita

Okay, take a deep breath and say it with me: this is Deputy Hunter Pinot Brown the First, also known as Deputy Brown or just Deps. She is a jindohuskita: a jindo/husky/akita mix, according to genetic testing, and this one I buy because look at her. And in these pictures she was 4 months old.

She isn’t any more. I ran into him back in January, and I can’t believe I’m just getting around to posting him now. Needless to say, she looks a lot different now, which you can see for yourself by checking out her very own tumblr page, where you can see highlights such as ‘her dressed as a bacon cheeseburger’ and ‘her along with a portrait of her done in latte’.

Edit: So I may have just run into Deputy Brown again and I may have just found out that I got her gender wrong when I wrote the original blurb. But in my defense, it was a guess based on the first name ‘Hunter’ since I didn’t write it down because I was too busy writing down thirty-six other names. So there’s that.

Dog of the Day: Zoe the Miniature English Bulldog

So apparently miniature English bulldogs are A Thing™. Or, at least, Zoe is a thing, and Zoe’s mom said that Zoe is a miniature English bulldog (3.5 years old). Thus, by induction, we can determine that cheese is delicious. And that Zoe is adorable, whether or not she looks like a French bulldog with floppy ears.

Zoe is, in addition to being a miniature English bulldog, a silly. With a very wide tongue.

Zoe looks grumpy, much like regular English bulldogs. Don’t let it fool you.

Dog of the Day: Buddy the Australian Cattle Dog Mix

Ah, Buddy, you’re a gorgeous puplet even if I don’t know what half of you is.

Dog of the Day: Fluffy Corgi With Half-Floppy Ears

This’ll be the last corgi for a few days, so enjoy her. I know I did, because she is possessed of two thirds of the trifecta of ultimate cuteness: a fluffy corgi with half-floppy ears. All she needed was a long floofy tail and she would have been causing strong men to break down and weep.

Sassy expression!

Dog of the Day: Another CorgiCon-goer!

I’ve still got a few more of these guys. (Actually I have like fifty, so I’m trying really hard to find the best ones. Which is tough, because… corgis!) This guy in particular was running around the beach with his mouth so wide open I was afraid he’d faceplant and eat his weight in sand.

Seriously. I have twelve pictures of this guy running around. In every one, his mouth is open at least this wide.

I asked to take some pictures and dad scooped him up, and he instantly looked delighted.

See? Look at that happy face.

Sunday Switchup: Bay Bridge

Some rather unusual night shots of the Bay Bridge.

I just happened to be taking pictures of the bridge when there was this really bright flash, and…

…no, I’m just messing with you, that was actually the moon.

Caturday Supplement: Snuggly Kitties

From my visit to Pets Unlimited a couple weeks back. I’m not sure if these two are parent and child or just good friends, but they were definitely putting on a good show of the ‘adopt us now for we are ridiculously adorable’ variety. I have little doubt that they were adopted soon after I visited, because who could resist that?

I want a kitten pile in my bed right now. I would lie down and add myself to the pile and go straight to sleep.

Dog of the Day: Sailor Chihuahua

You thought I was out of CorgiCon pictures, didn’t you? Hah! Not even close. This little guy was an attendee, though obviously not a participant. Just like me, come to think of it. Except cuter.

One of the cuter Sailor-Dog costumes I’ve run across.

The little bone on the hat is a nice touch.

Dog of the Day: Miss Elle the Saint Bernard

Say hello to Miss Elle (pronounced ‘L’) the 5-year-old Saint Bernard. I ran into her when I was visiting Pets Unlimited two weekends ago to get some kitty pictures. I was worried, since I’m used to thinking of Saturday vet hours as being for emergencies only. But mom said she was just there for ‘routine maintenance’, so that’s good.

Only 25 more days until my six year blogoversary. That is 49 in dog years, and roughly 3,500 in blog years. (Most blogs last around six weeks.) I feel like I ought to celebrate somehow. Any suggestions?

Saint Bernard Face

Look at that face. 1000% excess schnozzlage, with extra added slobbration!

If you look closely you can see the drool splotches on the floor.

Dog of the Day: Tommy the Maltese

I ran into Tommy (12-ish) at the ticket desk at San Francisco Airport, but wasn’t able to get any good pictures of him due to lighting conditions and speed. I was a little disappointed, but I figured, ah well, maybe I’ll get lucky and see him again. And then on the plane, I was hanging out in my seat and someone asked if I would switch seats with him so he could sit with his girlfriend, and I said, ‘Eh, whatever.’ And when I got to the other seat, who should be next to me but Tommy and his mommy!

Tommy is half Dog of San Francisco and half Dog 0f Puerto Vallarta. His mom works in San Jose as a tech consultant but is planning to move down to Puerto Vallarta in a year or so, and spends a lot of time down there now. And Tommy has gotten quite used to commuting between the two, as you can see. And no, no doggie sedatives were used in the making of this photo shoot.

Someone seems happy. Lots of attention and petting from mom are worth any amount of ear poppage, apparently.

He had a variety of poses when we were in the air. This is one of the more relaxed-looking ones.

Indescribable Dog Face

Believe it or not, this was also a very relaxed position.
