Dog of the Day: Aki the … Shiba Inu?

Gotta admit, I’m having a little trouble believing that Aki (1) is really a full Shiba. Either I have my referents all wrong or she’s HUUUUUGE!

I dunno, maybe a jindo? But I have the note that says ‘shiba inu’ right here…

Double Dog Day: Olive the Italian Greyhound Puppy and Marbles the French Bulldog

Olive is four months old, and Marbles is three years old, and at the moment Marbles can nearly keep up with Olive, because of the broken leg. Poor pup. Apparently she was just running along and then… she wasn’t.

Olive is not the first Italian greyhound we’ve seen with this problem.

Dog of the Day: Wilbur the Pit Mix Tripod Puppy

Wilbur (5 months) is missing a hind leg, though you’d never know it by how quickly he gets around or how happy he is ALL THE TIME.

You can see the sun shining out his nose. That’s a new one for me!

Dog of the Day: English Bulldog

Dspite appearances, this pup isn’t actually asleep. Just concentrating very hard on the toy.

Dog of the Day: Winnie the Golden Retriever Puppy

Winnie is a very good girl. Very. She is a five-month-old golden retriever, which is generally a giant bundle of crazy uncontrollable impulses. And yet she played with me and let me pet her and even rub her belly and yet never once did she try to leap up on me.

I complemented her on her good behavior and her parents seemed very proud. And happy that someone noticed.

She also knows ‘sit’ very well, especially when there is a treat in sight.

Of course, there were momentary lapses.

Too much cute today for captions or hovertext. But please note how much Rumi resembles a red panda.

Dog of the Day: Yvee St Lafloof the Repeat Customer Aussie-Doodle

I have to admit that I didn’t recognize Yvee as a repeat customer when I ran into her. Her mom had to point it out. I feel like such a bad dog blogger! She’s 2 now but every bit as fluffycuddly. And her instagram is still awesome.

She lives right near me, too!

Aww don’t be sad little pup!

Dog of the Day: Hanalei the Flat Coat Retriever

Haven’t seen a flat-coat around in a while, and Hanalei (2, and is that like in Puff the Magic Dragon, I wonder?) is a fine specimen.

In other news, it looks like Twitter has decided to eliminate the free integration with WordPress with zero notice to anyone. I’m going to have to see if I can find some other way to share my stuff on Twitter, if I even want to. I know I mostly don’t talk opinions on here, but I definitely have them about Elon Musk, ooooh my yes. What, does he think I should be paying a few hundred a month in order to post cute dog pictures that people look at for free?

Personally I think they should be called fluffle-butted retrievers, but nobody asked me.
