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.
Sierra is a cute little pup, but she is super-shy. She’s a rescue dog, which explains a lot right there, and whippets can be a little on the nervous side at the best of times.
Look at the body language: ears partway back, tail tucked so far between the legs that it comes out the front.
A little less freaked out. Probably because she's no longer looking at me.
Sunny wants to know what you’re doin’ for fun on this exciting long weekend!
Cold wet noses for everyone!
Does anyone else think it looks goofy when dogs sit like that? Like they're just trying to 'look casual'.
A contented dog to start your holiday weekend off right.
* Updated, adding the name of this awesome dog.
Who's got the Buddha nature? You do! You've got the Buddha nature! *bellyrubs*
This is Lexi the Miniature Pinscher, with her play buddy (and our old friend) Daisy (aka Daisy-Mae) the bluetick beagle.
An afternoon romp in the grass with a friend.
Min-Pins always look like chihuahuas to me, but apparently they were bred from Italian greyhounds and dachshunds. Go figure.
That just looks like a missing finger waiting to happen. Sharp little teeth!
There, that's better.
The two of them got pretty energetic, play-wise. But they were definitely still having fun.
Although it sometimes LOOKED a little bit scary.
A golden dog with the speed of a muppet, a cloud of dust, and a hearty ‘Hey, get back here!’ The lone doodle gallumphs again!
I really do wonder how many of Jim Henson's friends had big fuzzy dogs.
I never got quite this much joy out of running, even back when my doctor let me run.
