BirthDog of the Day: Truckee the Taiwanese Street Dog

Posted on May 21, 2022 by Adam Lang

I ran into Truckee last week, and her mom mentioned that today was going to be her fifth birthday, so we get to celebrate yet again. Yay!

Truckee’s just about the friendliest Taiwanese street dog I’ve ever met.

I ran into her pretty early in the morning, and just after a bunch of playing in the park. Hence the yawns.

Apparently a lot of fetch was played.

Dog of the Day: Brooklyn the Bernadoodle Puppy

Posted on May 18, 2022 by Adam Lang

I ran into Brooklyn last year, when she was only eleven weeks old! She has since gotten a lot bigger, as evidenced by her Instagram account. She has a huge floofy head now!

I got over a dozen photos of them. In every single one, either the dog or the person had their eyes closed. Amazing!

Dog of the Day: Nico the Pretty Great Dane

Posted on May 17, 2022 by Adam Lang

Nico is eight years old! He’s pretty small for a Dane, and he looks a lot younger than his age. Seems pretty spry, too.

Merle Great Dane
Got him on an early morning walk. I’m finding it really difficult to get out and exercise these days, even with all the doggie time I get that way.

Nico has a very pronounced bump on his head. And likes having it scratched.

Dog of the Day: Moke the Australian Shepherd

Posted on May 16, 2022 by Adam Lang

Moke, also known on Instagram as Mr. Mokes, is the proud six-year-old owner of the most comprehensively ridiculous neck-ruff the world has ever known.

The pictures really don’t do it justice. No matter how fluffy you’re thinking, double it, and add five.

The nose freckles are pretty great too.

Dog of the Day: Poppins the Pembroke/Cardigan Welsh Corgi Mix Puppy

Posted on May 13, 2022 by Adam Lang

Look. Look at this ridiculous pup. Poppins is half Pemmie, half Cardie, five months old, and all up in your bidnezz. She will brighten your day if you give her half a chance, and if you do not give her half a chance she will steal half a chance and probably the other half too if it’s not nailed down.

And then she will eat it.

No hovertext or captions, too much cute for mere words.

Dog of the Day: Malinka the Tiny Whippet

Posted on May 11, 2022 by Adam Lang

I initially thought Malinka (8) was an Italian greyhound, because she’s so little. But it turns out she’s just a little bitty whippet!

The internet says that the name ‘Malinka’ means ‘as sweet as a little berry’ in Russian. Which is odd, since маленький (malinki) means ‘little’ in Russian, and I’m not sure how changing ‘i’ to ‘a’ means ‘berry’, or ‘sweet’, or the comparative. Nevertheless, I agree that she is just as sweet as a little bitty berry.

No captions or hovertext today, just cute pictures.

Sunday Switchup: Yerba Buena Island

Posted on May 8, 2022 by Adam Lang

Just a pretty vista, from the tippy-top of Telegraph Hill, for you today. Yerba Buena Island, some of Treasure Island, the western span of the Bay Bridge, a bit of the eastern span as well if you look close enough.

And a big honking cruise ship. Man, best wishes to them, but you wouldn’t catch me on one of those things right now.
