Dog of the Day: Sapphire the White Doberman

Posted on April 21, 2023 by Adam Lang

I had absolutely no idea that Doberman pinschers came in blond! I thought she was some kind of variation on a Ibizan or pharaoh hound, but nope, Sapphire (3) is all Dobie.

Lovely eyes, too!

Sophie is a cute lil pup of dubious origin but unquestionable friendliness.

I fee like I ought to have more of an idea what breed she is but there’s a bit of a mental block.

Dog of the Day: Archie (Archibald) the Long-Haired Chihuahua

Posted on April 19, 2023 by Adam Lang

Archie (3) doesn’t need my help to be a star: he is a long-haired blue merle Chihuahua with a highly glamorous Instagram.

Seriously you should look at his Instagram. I do not believe I’ve ever had pictures that good taken of me.

Dog of the Day: Zoey the ‘Micro-Mini’ Bernadoodle

Posted on April 18, 2023 by Adam Lang

Well, perhaps ‘micro-mini’ is a bit of an exaggeration, but that’s what mom called Zoey (1). All I know is, she’s bigger than a bread box, and she’s got 100% of your RDA of Bernadoodle charm. And floof.

The first thing I thought of when I saw her legs was ‘they look like giant pillars!’

But that must have been my brain making unconscious puns, because what they really look like is GIANT FLOOFY WOOLY-BEAR CATERPILLARS!

Site News: Frustration

Posted on April 17, 2023 by Adam Lang

Dropped off my computer yesterday for Apple to take a look at. I was pretty sure they’d find nothing wrong, this was just part one in what I assumed would be a long series of troubleshooting steps that may or may not result in me finally getting it fixed.

Apparently they found the problem, but didn’t have the part to fix it. So… no computer, no photos.

Oh well. It’s been a very long week anyway, so I’m going to bed.

(Long week? But it’s only Monday, you say? Well, given that I have been sick since the 9th, and had to work through the weekend anyway, I’m not sure there’s been a new week for some time.)

Dog of the Day: Lucy Our Old Shar Pei Friend

Posted on April 13, 2023 by Adam Lang

Look who I ran into a couple of weeks ago: it’s little LuLu! I first ran into her when she was 1, and had just had a little minor plastic surgery. (No, really! It was a face-tuck to keep her eyelids from everting and making her go blind.) She is now twelve, and still getting along just fine, and is not blind in any way.

Funny, I have this very clear memory of the first time I ran into her, which was down in South Beach right near where I used to work. But the pictures from the link above were from Huntingdon Park, right near where I live. Nevertheless, I’m like 99% sure that’s where I first saw her. I wonder if I can find any of the pictures of her from down there, if I do a little digging?

Edit: so frustrating. I tried to post this yesterday. What happened?

Dog of the Day: Toby the Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Posted on April 10, 2023 by Adam Lang

Toby (5) is a local star: his Instagram handle is ‘Toby SF Corgi‘ and it has some pretty amazing pictures on it.

I’m feeling pretty crappy today — covid, flu, bad cold, who knows? — but Toby made me smile.

Dog of the Day: Neo the Belgian Malinois Siberiran Husky Mix

Posted on April 7, 2023 by Adam Lang

Neo (1) is pretty striking, isn’t he?

I’ve recently found a good way to get pups to pay attention to me: I can whistle and hum at the same time, in tri-tones.

Dog of the Day: Dusty the Basset Fauve de Bretagne Repeat Customer

Posted on April 5, 2023 by Adam Lang

I was pretty sure I’d seen a pup of this breed before, so while his day was there I took a quick look, and wouldn’t you know it? I ran into Dusty before, about seven years ago! He’s 10 years old now, but hasn’t slowed down much!

Ran into him outside my favorite local kebab place. Pretty sure he was hoping for some sharing of the wealth.
