Dog of the Day: Reggie the Havanese Poodle Mix Puppy

Reggie is a four-month-old ‘Havapoo’, which always seemed to me to be a rather cruel name for a very cute dog breed. And for a four-month-old, he’s pretty good-sized, too, big enough that I would have guessed goldendoodle.

Ran into Reggie wandering down the Em-bark-adero, having a blast.

Dog of the Day: Arlo the English Massive Mastiff

I first ran into Arlo (2) a few months ago, but none of the pictures came out, so I’m glad I found him again.

Also I screwed up my back while dogsitting last weekend: put one foot down on a steel plate in the sidewalk, on a steep hill in the rain, and ended up flat on my back, seeing stars. It hasn’t been a very fun few days, although I think I’m over the worst.

Like a lot of mastiffs: big, slow-moving, friendly, and a sucker for chest scratches.

Dog of the Day: Bandon the Bernadoodle

Bandon (3) is named after Bandon, Oregon, a pretty little town on the coast, not far south of Coos Bay. He’s a blue merle, not something you see in Bernadoodles very often! It makes me wonder if there was an Australian shepherd in the woodpile a generation or two back.

Bandon was also supposed to be a ‘mini’ Bernadoodle. You can see how that went.

I was kneeling when I took this. Immediately after, Bandon leaned up and put his paws around my neck and gave me a big hug. He apparently loves hugs!

Dog of the Day: Zoe the Poodle

Zoe is the lucky pup who belongs to the owner of En Vogue Grooming. The leg-warmers are a nice touch, don’t you think?

Standard Poodle With Dyed Legs That Look Like Leg Warmers
Leaving aside the leg warmers, I really like this look for poodles. No giant poofs, just plenty of fluff and scratchable spots.

National Caturday SPOOKY Supplement

I saw this kitty in a window a few days ago. Not actually a black cat, but seems spooky enough for me for Halloween, and today (the 29th) is National Cat Day in the US. So this is a National SPOOOOKY Cat for National Spooky Caturday!

I tried to get him to chase my finger through the glass, but he was more interested in pressing against the glass in the hope that I could pet him through it.

Reese (girl, 6 months) is a good friend of Gus.

Dog of the Day: Trina the American Bully Puppy

Trina is only six months old. She’s a handful! Pretty much a dumptruck in puppy guise.

That is a ‘please don’t let your dog pee here’ sign in the background. As far as I can tell, the only thing they do is protect a small patch of wall directly behind them from dog pee.

GUUUUUUS! Gus is a two-month-old Labrador retriever service dog in training. He has a truly ridiculous Instagram which you should totally check out RIGHT AWAY.

Dog of the Day: Luna the Siberian Husky (Mix?)

I’m not sure if Luna is a mix or not. I’m just sure she’s an 8-year-old cutie with very, very soft fur.

A look guaranteed to melt your soul.
