Merle Frenchies are apparently pretty unusual and expensive. There are, needless to say, quite a lot of them in certain neighborhoods of San Francisco.

Puppy of the Day: Dia the Rhodesian Ridgeback

Dia is only three months old, so sometimes she still needs a little help getting around.

She’ll grow into her skin, I promise.

That is just about the maximum amount of scrawn that it’s legal to have.

Dog of the Day: Teddy the Golden Retriever

Teddy (1) is well-named. He’s just a big ol’ teddy bear.

The ‘one squinty eye’ thing is funny. I wonder if I look like that when half my face is in shadow.

Dog of the Day: Frankie the Sheepadoodle Puppy

Frankie is still (barely) a puppy, at 10 months old, but he’s already got the ‘friendly’ thing down pat. Now he just has to work on the ‘no jumping’ thing.

Damp Dog of the Day: Bosco the Italian Water Spaniel

Autumn brought an old friend of the blog with her down to a music-teaching gig she had in the wilds near Santa Cruz, and I was down there with them and caught a ton of pictures. And not aa single one came out looking the slightest bit normal. This one is kind of neat, though.

His teeth aren’t really as terrifying as they look in this picture, I promise.

Dog of the Day: Sleepy Great Pyrenees

It’s been a long, annoying day. My home internet is down, and annoying stuff happened at work, and bah and also humbug. So here is a picture of a Great Pyrenees that I ran into on a farm a little while back. No caption or hovertext, just enjoy the pup.

Dog of the Day: Xochi the Mutt

Xochi (boy, 1) is just the kind of mutt I like: ridiculous ears, lots of fluff, 50 pounds of happy in a 40 pound sack.

Apparently he’s 1/4 Belgian malinois but that’s all they know.
