When I took these pictures, Lucci was 8 months old… but that was a couple years ago, so she’s all growed up now.
Very faint brindling there. But I don’t think she’s a pit bull mix. Intriguing.
Kind of a little bit of a sad puppydog thing going on there.
Nose shot!
Half-up ears. Hmm. I guess it could be a pit bull mix…
Ladies and gentlemen, meet Bodhi. When I took this picture in 2012 (and at least as late as last April) Bodhi was the mascot for OMpower, a yoga/fitness place down in South Beach, not far from where I work (and may still be, though I haven’t seen her in a while). Bodhi is named after a concept in Buddhism, and I have to say, she does seem to have a great intuitive grasp of the essentials.
She is gorgeous, isn’t she?
Someone wanted belly rubs. Don’t worry, she got some soon enough.
Very patient, and very sweet. The perfect yoga dog.
Maybe? Could be a basset mix too, although with those pointy ears I’d say that’s less likely.
I can’t decide whether that’s an ‘m’ or a ‘3’ on his side. Either way, pretty neat.
I wonder if there isn’t some Australian cattle dog in there. He certainly has a bit of ‘the stare’.
Not really sure who this is. I have two notes for the day I took this picture. One is ‘Zoe Beast Mode’, which I’m pretty sure isn’t her. The other is ‘Roast chicken sandwich no onions with pickle’ which I’m… almost certain isn’t her.
I do remember her, though. I saw her on a visit to the SF SPCA. But she wasn’t an adoptable dog… she was one that someone working there had taken home. And she was very well trained.
She apparently just hangs around on the counter, keeping mom company, despite all the distractions inherent in a dog-and-cat-rich environment. Well trained indeed!
Or would he be a Great Young Dane? Whatever he is, he was one of the dogs I got pictures of at the Million Dog March, way back when.
I recently got the opportunity to wrestle a Great Dane. It is a blast, as long as you choose one who is careful where he puts his nails.
It was hard to say who was having more fun.
Ugh, I am going to run out of cats really early this year. Come on, people, some of you must live in San Francisco and have cats. Who will volunteer to let me take some adorable kitty photos?
I wanted to go take a bunch of pictures between January 2nd and the 5th, when is when they tore things down, but I ended up postponing my flight and got back at midnight on the 4th. Dammit.
And yeah, on the 5th I was definitely not feeling up to trekking across town.
Kitty-tongue! So cute.
Not sure what this guy is. I think it may be a bit unfair, because he may just have been shaved when I took this picture (last June). Whatever he was, though, I do remember him, because he was really cute and, alas, quite uninterested in making friends.
Looking away from me, tail tucked down… yup, someone’s a bit intimidated.
And there’s a bit of the ‘hairy eyeball’.
Well, there’s a mix you don’t see every day. Which is too bad, because Jax is awesome.
(Also: Alert! This is the emergency dog-cast system! There is a missing white female boxer, last seen in the area of Golden Gate Park/Sunset Reservoir on Jan 15. She is liable to be quite frightened. If anyone runs across her, call 650 318 8998. More info here. This has been an alert from the emergency dog-cast system. Good night.)
Yes, he is every bit as friendly as that expression makes him look.
The kind of dog you want if you get stuck in a polar vortex!
Quite a mix. And a super-sweet puppy, too.
I swear, no ones ankles were safe from smooches with this one around.
I can’t tell whether her tail is curled like that all the time, or just in this picture.
If that face doesn’t melt your heart, you need more help than I can give you.
I wonder how big she is now, seven months later?
Not at all sure about this glorious beast, either the breeds or the gender. But I’m going to guess it’s a girl, and she definitely has some German shepherd traits and some Australian shepherd ones as well, so… close enough.
You can’t really tell from these pictures, but this is a one-ear-up pup.
Amazing coloration. I’ve never seen a merle that had patches of red merle AND of blue merle, but wasn’t a brindle merle. How does that even work? What is this dog? I am fascinated!
