Site News: Still Broken

Just to keep you all up to date: the site randomly decides whether it wants to post my updates or not. I have to manually check later in the day to see if my last post went through.

Think I’m going to need to experiment with a different hosting setup and see if that’s the problem.

Dog of the Day: Golden Retriever Puppy

Ran into this little gal when I was out and about with some friends of mine. She was locked in a pickup truck for a couple minutes while dad ran into a house to grab something, and REALLY REALLY wanted to come out and play with us. Just as we were leaving, dad came out and got her and I snapped a couple shots.

SO. CUTE.

Oh god the puppy belly. Save me, I’m drowning in cute!

I think these two are going to have a great time together.

Dog of the Day: Stitch the English Setter

Stitch is 10.5 years old, and still going strong.

Yes, that is a ‘Dogs of SF’ business card in the background there.

They’re outside a local Polk Street cafe. It’s always a great place for dog-watching.

Dog of the Day: Oliver the German Shepherd/Greyhound Mix (with Guest Pomeranian)

Oliver totally reminds me of a cartoon dog I have seen somewhere, but I can’t remember where, or even in what context. Someone help me out here!

(It’s funny: I guess he’s been around the neighborhood for a while. Since I saw him three weeks ago I have seen him twice more, but I never saw him before. I’d remember.)

Tricolor German Shepherd/Greyhound Mix with Classic Saddle Markings

For some reason I find Oliver goofier-looking than either German shepherds or greyhounds. (That’s okay, Oliver… goofy is good!)

Oliver likes everyone: people, other dogs, whoever.

Very expressive face.

Polk Street is a fun place to take pictures, because there are so many dogs that you can watch the dogs, and then watch the dogs watching the other dogs.

And there’s a happy expression, which seems pretty typical for Oliver.

Dog of the Day: Gorgeous Malamute (Mix?)

Is it just the angle of the shot, or does this dog look like she has a little corgi in her?

That’s an awfully pensive expression.

This is a picture from quite a while ago, at Bay to Barkers.

Double Dog Day: Norwich Terrier and Poodle Mix

These two look like the best of friends, don’t they?

Tan Norwich Terrier Wrestling Black Standard Poodle Mix

I have vague memories of playing like this with other kids when I was a little kid. Since then, I have pretty much exclusively wrestled dogs.

Look at those vicious faces. You can tell they are Deadly Killers™.

And there’s the happy face.

Am not sure what is going on with the poodle mix’s muzzle. Fuzzy?

Dog of the Day: Unknown Mix

No idea what this guy is. Maybe Autumn will have a clue.

Small Tricolor Dog

That coloration is quite pretty.

Those ears!

Multi-Dog Day: Everybody!

I really miss this dog park. Lafayette Park has been shut down for over a year now for construction. I hear it’s going to be a lot less of a dog park, and more of a children’s park, once it reopens, but it will be a lot better than it is right now (which is ‘entirely fenced in’.)

This little mob is pretty typical of what Lafayette Park looked like on a Sunday afternoon, before the renovations started.

A Whole Bunch of Dogs

The expressions are great, and I love the cheerful Sheltie in the background.

Caturday Supplement: More Macy’s Window Kitties

Have to remember to get some of Autumn’s cat pictures for next week.

In the mean time, I do love that cat’s grin. You think he or she knows something we don’t?

Grey-and-White Fluffy Kitty and Black-And-White Short-Haired Kitty

For someone who rarely shops at Macy’s, I sure do get a lot of mileage out of them.

Dog of the Day: Yang the German Shepherd/Alaskan Malamute Mix

Ladies and gentlemen, I am in love. (Absolutely platonic, I assure you. I’m already taken, after all!)

German Shepherd/Alaskan Malamute Mix with Tricolor Coloration

That is one handsome specimen. Apparently there’s another just like him at home, named Yin. (A girl, no doubt.)

Tricolor Alaskan Malamute/German Shepherd Mix

A dog like this deserves extra hugs. Lots of them. I gave him one and OMG that fur.
