Looks like a Maltese to me. No idea what goes on there, but whatever it is, I’m sure it is only improved by a pooch’s presence.
This is right down the street from our apartment. Never seen him there before though.
He looks very much at home there. Maybe I just don't get by there at the right time to see him.
That's one self-satisified little dog.
Tucker’s mom knew what he was, but we didn’t write it down and couldn’t remember the other half. Might be poodle.
Tucker loves people, and loves attention, and knows exactly how to get it.
That's Patricia Ross, a friend of ours, in the background. She's a professional animal-hater...er... no... ANIMATOR! That's right. Animator. Sorry, Rossi.
What a ham.
Had a surprise birthday party today. Just got home. Tired. Will post tomorrow.
A couple people have complimented me on the title image for the blog, with the misty bridge. I was really only planning on keeping that up there until I got a suitable dog panorama to put there, but it does make me think maybe some ‘San Francisco’ images, to go with the ‘Dogs’ images, might not be a bad idea. I’ll still be posting a dog a day, but I will occasionally post some cityscape pictures as well. Like this one:
A little fog, a lot of clouds, a little sun... a pretty picture.
I could just about handle having a Yorkie, if it weren’t for the high-pitched yaps. Other than that, they’re generally pretty nice dogs, and not too timid. And they’re undeniably cute.
So small, you'd hardly think there's room for a dog under all that fluff.
Wonder what a Yorkshire Terrier would make of a Yorkshire Pudding?
Yeah, I know, I post a lot of these guys. But every third person seems to have one, and it’s pretty obvious why: they’re great dogs.
Biscuit is 2 years old... old enough to know better, young enough to do it anyway.
Is that... carefully trimmed ear fur? Trimmed off at the edge of the ear?
Awww. That looks like one of those Japanese anime happy faces to me.
A pair of Macy’s window puppies, saved from this winter. I think they’re probably half Chihuahua… maybe we can get Autumn’s opinion on the other half.
Bet these two got adopted really quick. You have a huge advantage when you can even *sleep* that cutely.
Can't be full Chihuahua, they don't have the bulgy brow/eye thing going on.
You don't get a lot cuter than sleeping with your face smooshed up against the window.
Keep running into this pup, and he’s one of my favorites. I now think he’s a Finnish spitz/golden retriever mix.
I bet he sheds enough for a dozen sweaters a year.
It’s my birthday! And so I had to post an adorable puppy.
I ran into this guy in a dog park in the Inner Richmond. I gave his mom my email address, and told her that I’d post his pictures if she’d send details on him, because he’s adoptable (she’s fostering him) and a special-needs dog, and needs as much PR as he can get.
Sadly, she never got back to me, and I didn’t take any notes, not even his name. Sorry about that. I think he’s a Rottweiler mix, though, and I do remember why he was special needs: he’s totally deaf. Happy as a clam, though. And super-cute.
On a hillside entirely covered with sticks, apparently one of them was completely enthralling.
I think this picture belongs in the dictionary, next to the entry for 'puppydog eyes'.
And the puppydog eyes work, too. Hooray for belly rubs!
A challenger appears! This guy came over and wanted to play.
Those two had an absolute blast together.
Every time the puppy play-attacked, the pit bull flopped over on his back and allowed himself to be 'viciously savaged'. It was mind-meltingly cute.
Given the popularity of the 101 Dalmatians franchise, I’m kind of surprised how few of these I see around.
Is it just me, or does this poor pup look awfully disgruntled? It's just the arrangement of the spots, I assure you.
If I had a Dalmatian I'd name him Rorschach.
Those eye-spots just make the face look so grumpy all the time!
I dunno. I'm not sure I'd be able to live with this one. I'd be wondering what he was plotting all the time.
