I dunno, somehow this gorgeous pup does not scream ‘Oscar’ to me. I guess I always think of Oscar as ‘that guy from The Odd Couple’ or ‘Oscar the Grouch’.
Also, can you believe it? First Afghan hound! Still finding new dog breeds to post, even after nearly four years.
Even his shadow is fluffy!
They really are gorgeous dogs, aren’t they? (Also, ee, look at that twisty tail!)
So Autumn’s family recently got a dog, Begley. And it was pretty clear that he was in great need of companionship when they weren’t home, so they had to get another dog. And so, since the local animal shelters were all really expensive (several hundred dollars for adoption fees!) they went to the local craigslist… where they found someone who was willing to part with her golden retriever, but only if they took the dog’s sister, too.
Yes, the dog’s sister was a duck. Named ‘Tank’. (Who actually thinks of the dog as ‘mom’.)
The two of them are definitely friends, although Tank is a lot more into Roxy than Roxy is into Tank. Still, they have fun together. Begley loves playing with Roxy, but he’s not allowed to play with the duck… he’s just a little bit too enthusiastic.
That duck follows Roxy everywhere. Well, except when she’s in her pen.
Autumn being mean to Begley. 🙂
These two never let up. It is ALWAYS playtime.
I wish I’d managed to get the camera up just another few inches. In my defense, though, I didn’t expect them to start ballroom dancing all of a sudden.
Begley, victorious. For about, oh, three seconds.
Autumn and I saw this kitten in the window of the Groom Room on our way by.
Big bowl for such a little kitty.
I think the nametag says ‘Leilani’ but I’m not absolutely certain.
Autumn’s family got a couple of new dogs lately. I’ll be posting some more pictures of them soon, but for now, have a teaser.
You might think that this is not a representative picture. You would be wrong. Any picture I have of them sitting still? THAT’S not representative.
So I posted a samoyed yesterday, and on my work today I ran into another one! And this one’s a boy, so I can’t pretend he’s Ginger Rogers… but he’s still gorgeous.
I’m afraid I held up his mom a little too much: she was in kind of a hurry to get somewhere. If you’re reading this: sorry about that. Also, I didn’t have a chance to ask if it was okay to post a picture of you along with your pup, since I snagged one. If you do object, please do let me know and I’ll take it down.
Side note: this is the third dog named Bodhi I’ve taken pictures of, although I haven’t posted any of the others yet.
For some reason, I have just discovered, male Samoyeds have French accents in my mind.
I don’t know how this happened, but I love this picture. Although maybe not as much as the final one in this series.
I love how they can make their ears simply vanish.
I definitely like this one. They obviously really adore one another.
Samoyeds are so gorgeous. I always think of rich, glamorous ladies when I see them.
Partly to do with how ridiculously luxuriant their fur is.
Little sidelong glance. So sweet.
I took these way back in 2011, but I still remember this pair. Zuzu was super-friendly, but Jake was a rescue and somewhat suspicious of strangers.
The legs in the right hand part of the shot belong to mom…
…as you can tell by the fact that Jake ran right over to her.
Patented corgi grin.
This gal was just hangin’ out, waiting for mom and dad to finish their lunch.
Note the bonus terrier in the background.
Who could bear not to donate half a sandwich to that face?
Hello from the Midwest! I haven’t had a chance to get any dog pictures out here… been running on overdrive since I got out here. But at least I have a chance to post a dog or two now. This is Ginger, who I ran into a couple months back in Huntingdon Park.
Look at that sweet face.
She’s definitely got the puppydog eyes down pat.
Leeeettle bitty underbite.
Sorry about the gap: I’m traveling AND feeling crappy. At least one dog soon, I promise, although I may not be back to a regular schedule until Sunday.
