I love this: the dog’s name is Luke, but he’s more frequently known as Hannibal the Animal. He’s the biggest lab/poodle mix I’ve ever seen — bigger than any lab I’ve ever seen, and bigger than any giant poodle, too.
Luke and his mom. Note scale. I honestly thought he was half Irish wolfhound.
I can see where he got his nickname.
He also seems pretty easy to please. Just a little backscritching and he's in bliss.
Aww. Happy face!
Certainly never seen this mix before. Looks a lot like a flat-coated retriever, doesn’t she?
Big black dogs with big black dog noses!
Isn't there a rule about not pointing things when you don't know if they're loaded or not?
Aww. Soulful look.
Big yawn. And yes, that is a slightly disturbing-looking spotty tongue.
I can’t decide if I think this gal looks like a cute, fluffy stuffed animal or some kind of ‘super-pup’ action figure. Either way, cute!
Ridiculous. Those ears. That muzzle. The tiny feets. Reee-dee-cute-lous!
That curled tail is adorable too. She's a super-confident pup.
She definitely wasn't sure what to make of my camera.
Poor dude got one hell of a haircut.
Shibas are so cute, especially in combination with the adorable head tilt.
Shibas are so foxy.
Wink!
Trying out the WordPress iPhone app again. I heard that there were some significant upgrades.
We ran into this pup at a craft fair in Albany. A very recent rescue. She’s very territorial but very sweet.
Hmm. Still doesn’t seem to have caption support.
Edited these in photoshop mobile. Better than nothing.
yeah, think I’ll stick to the computer when I can.
I’m headed out on vacation. Gonna try to keep posting, though.
Meet Henry the Lab/Australian Shepherd mix. Ran into him just a half-block from my apartment. I hope I run into him again, he’s a real sweetheart.
Henry's a young guy. Really energetic, and quite obedient as long as there are treats involved.
Another Hula-Hula Cat-Dog for y’all. Montana has unusual but not unprecedented (and gorgeous!) coloration for a Catahoula, and is otherwise an utterly adorable puppy who loves people and other dogs.
Pretty blue eyes, and mostly white, but I don't think she has any hearing problems. (Plus, bonus Rottie in the background!)
Not shown: Montana licking me on the left eyebrow.
Damn shadows on the eyes. Maybe at some point I'll spend some time with photoshop trying to erase them.
Such a pretty pup. He was tied up outside the old mint one morning.
Gorgeous markings. Almost wonder if it's a wolf mix.
Could be some pit in the unknown guy, could be some lab, I dunno. While I’m not 100% certain about the Portuguese water dog, I think it’s pretty likely.
Picture was taken right next to AT&T stadium. No idea if that's one of the Portuguese Water Dogs that (used to?) fetch the baseballs that fly out into the water.
Portuguese water dogs make great 'puppy speed bumps'.
How can a tail bend that way? I thought they had bones in them?
Someone's strutting.
It’s these two against the world. Seems like they’re doing all right so far.
I wonder if the places they're going includes underwater? That sorta looks like dog scuba gear.
