Dog of the Day: Alfie the Mini Dachshund

Alfie is one, even if he does look like a puppy. Or, at least, he does until you go and look at his instagram, @alfie.thedappledoxie, where you can see his real puppy pictures. Warning: they are dangerously adorable.

I know he’s a mini, but man, he’s SUPER tiny!

Seriously though, go check out Alfie’s instagram. You won’t regret it unless your neighbors hear the squealing and call the police.

Dog of the Day: Lennox the Pembroke Welsh Corgi With A Tail!

Autumn and I saw Lennox approaching while we were at an outdoor Irish ‘ceili’ (jam session). Autumn was playing, I was listening, so I had plenty of time to pet and photograph all the dogs that went by. Including Lennox (1 year old, a boy), who was also stopped by several other people who just had to pet him. Not hard to see why!

He was really good at ‘sit’, especially for a one-year-old. They said ‘sit’, he sat, and he stayed seated despite quite a bit of temptation.

There it is: cute little foxy-tail!

Dog of the Day: My Old Friend Pepper the Wire Fox Terrier

I ran into an old friend last weekend: Pepper the adorable happy fox terrier!

It’s always nice to see a pup who remembers me fondly.

And she definitely remembered me, despite the fact that it’d been a year or so.

Dog of the Day: Ponzu the Bernadoodle Puppy

Ponzu (3 months, female) is a saucy wench indeed!

Of course, there are certain compensations.

Dog of the Day: Ollie the English Setter

Ollie was three when I took these pictures. Don’t see a lot of English setters around the joint!

Such a dignified-looking breed.

Most grown-up dogs don’t tilt their heads to the side when they hear funny noises. Ollie does!

His toes are almost as fluffy as his ears.

Caturday Supplement: Killer Kitten

Someone wants to go hunting birdies!

I think I need to grab a couple of cat-sitting jobs. I need to do some kitty-petting.

Dog of the Day: Australian Shepherd Poodle Puppy

No notes on this goof, but I seem to remember he’s an ‘Aussie-Doodle’ dandy, and I’m pretty sure he’s a young’n.

One block from my home, and I saw him once, six months ago, and haven’t seen him since. So unfair!

Dog of the Day: Chunky the Pug Puppy

I wonder if Chunky (6 months, boy) has a sister named ‘Creamy’ or something? It’s a great name for a pug either way.

No captions or hovertext today, just a bunch of adorable pictures.

Dog of the Day: Wolvi the Pomeranian Shetland Sheepdog Mix

Wolvi (male, 7) is a mix I would never have thought of, but look at how well they fit together! Totally looks like he ought to be a breed unto himself.

Enough fluff for the classic Pomeranian ‘nearly spherical’ look.

I bet he’s pretty sharp, too. Shelties are very clever dogs.

Double Dog Day: Versace and Valentino the Pomeranians

Versace, at 5, is the smaller of the two. Valentino is 8, and bigger. They’re both happy-go-lucky, possibly slightly manic, pups.

Not a lot that looks more like a puppy than a full-grown Pomeranian.

Gotta think it’s a good thing they aren’t bigger.
