Dog of the Day: Cosmo the Borzoi

Cosmo is a very aerodynamic space dog! He is also a three-year-old borzoi who loves everybody and is quite well-behaved.

I was driving down the street and I saw Cosmo and his mom crossing the street and looked around but didn’t see anywhere I could immediately park, so I was quite sad. And around ten blocks later I parked and began walking to my destination and… there was Cosmo! And I was happy. And so was Cosmo.

N.b.: I am not sure I am going to be able to go back to posting every day, but things have settled down now that I am fully moved out of my apartment (aside from some storage places where stuff can stay until the remodeling is over.) So most days, I think. Yay!

Very Thin Borzoi, Head On
Borzois are so FLAT! No wonder they’re fast, they’re super aerodynamic.
Borzoi Looking Dynamic
I wonder if the long floofly fur adds to their air resistance at all?

Cosmo knew a sucker when he met one, and was a bit reluctant to leave me behind before I was entirely exhausted of pets.

Site News: A Few Days Off

I am having to (temporarily) move out of my apartment, and all my computer equipment is currently inaccessible, until I get into my temporary place.

Puppy of the Day: Fig the Klee Kai

Fig (6 months) is possibly the best name for a klee kai that I have ever heard, and Fig also has just about the most amazing markings of any klee kai I’ve ever seen.

I mean the mask is amazing but I keep getting distracted by the eyebrows.

Dog of the Day: Sophie the Goldendoodle

Sophie is 1, and a little bitty toy goldendoodle, but she’s a great big star: she has an adorable instagram page.

Look at those GIANT FEETS! She looks like she’s going to grow up into a 90-pound giant!

I gather she’s not getting any bigger than she is now, except maybe in personality.

Puppy of the Day: Ralph the Terrier

Ralph is four months old, and he goes around terrierizing everyone in sight. Right in the ankles. Go Ralph go!

Small Scruffy Terrier Mix Puppy
That’s a lot of wiry fur. I wonder if he’s part cairn or something similar?

Dog of the Day: Bedlington Terrier

Funny, I have run into a number of these pups, and for some reason they are the only breed I’ve ever seen where ALL of them have the standard haircut. Down to the goofy little pom-poms on the ears.

They seem like nice, happy, cheerful pups, and all the ones I’ve run across have been healthy.

I just can’t help but wonder if they actually have, y’know, binocular vision.

Puppy of the Day: Jif the Bernadoodle

Jif is 4 months old and is not, in fact, pronounced ‘gif’. He does, however, like peanut butter an awful lot.

Hey, honestly I’m right there with him.

Somebody ran a circle around that pole in his excitement to see me, and then he couldn’t come greet me. Goof!

I really did try to untangle him, but that would have required him to momentarily get a tiny bit further away from me, and that wasn’t an option.

Dog of the Day: Blossom the Fluffy Pembroke Welsh Corgi

I ran into Blossom (2) the same day I ran into Leeds. Quite different-looking, wouldn’t you say?

That’s more fluff than most fluffy corgis. I can only imagine the shedding…

Dog of the Day: Leeds the Repeat Customer Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Everyone say hello again to Leeds, 4, who was last featured on our blog last year. As you can see, he is just as awesome even without the shoes.

Also my camera is dumb. I took twelve pictures of Leeds and his dad, and in every single one of them, it helpfully decided that I wanted to focus on his dad’s face. This is as close as he got to being in focus. Grr. Silly phone. There should be some way for me to tell it that I like dogs.

Apparently Leeds’s (canine) father is an AOC champion named Prince. I was unable to verify this, as any google search of that kind gets caught up in Queen Elizabeth and , well, never gets un-caught.
