Dog of the Day: Berkeley the Goldendoodle Puppy

Berkeley is 10 weeks old in this picture. What more need I say? (How about ‘AWWWWW!’)

Little Fluffy Goldendoodle Puppy

I think Berkeley is going to be quite a large dog when he finishes growing.

The eyebrows.

Goldendoodle Puppy Looking Happy

Look at that happy face.

Dog of the Day: Roxy the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog

I have never seen a Greater Swiss like Roxy (10 years old!) before. I guess according to the AKC she’s ‘disqualified’… we’ll just add this to the list of ‘disqualifications that make dogs infinitely more awesome’.

Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Face

Hardly drooly at all!

Greater Swiss Mountain Dog With One Blue Eye

Schnozzle schott! And now you can see what I meant about a ‘fault’.

Fault? Hmf. “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our dogs, but in ourselves.”

Dog of the Day: I Have No Idea

I have no notes for this one, and I have absolutely no idea what she is, but those ears are hilarious.

Hilarious Brindled Dog With Flappy Ears And A White Spot On Her Chest

The splotch of white is awesome too.

That is the face of a dog who can get whatever she wants.

Dog of the Day: Pomeranian

Feeling a bit under the weather, so I need something super-fluffy to cuddle up to. I think this pup fits the bill.

 

Pomeranian With Giant Poofly Tail

Quite a tail.

Dog of the Day: Pip Squeak the Golden Retriever Puppy

She’s well-named: she was just a little bitty Pip, at 14 weeks of age, and I sure let out a squeak when I saw her. As did every other person to walk by.

Golden Retriever Puppy Tied To Table Outside Cafe

I swear, this dog stopped traffic.

Golden Retriever Puppy Sniffing Someone's Hand

Dainty little sniff.

Golden Retriever Begging For A Belly Rub

Slightly less modest. But very effective. Especially the begging paws.

Golden Retriever Puppy Lying On Her Back And Having Her Chest Scratched

Definitely not shy.

That expression cracks me up every time I look at it.

Abandoned. How could she?

Pause for vigorous scratching.

Sunday Switchup: Seal Ions

Some of our local pack. (Or would it be ‘pride’?)

Sea Lion Being Very Vocal

I really wonder what these guys are saying when they’re ‘yelling’ like this.

Two Sea Lions Fighting Over A Grape

Whatever it is, it’s very contentious.

Two Sea Lions Singing A Duet

A lot of them have lots of scars. It’s a tough place under the sea, sometimes, I guess.

Caturday Supplement: Catfort!

More SPCA pictures. So cute!

Is the one in front smiling, or is it just me?

Dog of the Day: Chaopi the Chow

Chaopi is nearly sixteen years old! And is awesome. I’ve run into him a few times, including a couple of days ago, and he’s still having a blast.

Senior Yellow Chow

I hope I’m half as happy when I’m that old, relatively speaking. (I know I won’t be one tenth as fluffy, alas.)

Senior Yellow Chow

That is a smile, right there. His habitual expression.

Grass-Stained Paw of a Yellow Chow

He still loves to romp around in the freshly-cut grass, too.

Dog of the Day: Saya the Pooped Double Doodle Puppy

A double doodle for your daily delectation! Apparently that’s what you get when you breed a Labradoodle and a goldendoodle. Who knew?

What you also get, in this case, is a 4.5 month old totally pooped puppy who is rather bigger than initial estimates led her owner to believe.

Woman Holding Large Double-Doodle Puppy In Her Arms

She is not going to be able to do that for much longer.

Woman Holding Large Golden Retreiver/Labrador Retriever/Poodle Mix

Not the happiest puppy expression. I think she’d rather have just lay down and taken a two hour nap right there.

Dog of the Day: Lola the German Shepherd Mix Puppy

I don’t know how I sat on Lola’s pictures for this long (a month and a half) without posting them. I think you’ll agree that she is one of the most photogenic dogs I’ve ever had the good fortune to meet. And all this at only seven months!

Poses she has down pat already: noble dog…
