Today, instead of my normal ‘post a picture or two with captions and hovertext’, I would like to give you an idea of how hard (and how much fun!) it sometimes is to get pictures of these dogs. Dogs like Moshi, the 5-month-old puppy with enough energy to power about two thirds of the state.
The first couple look pretty reasonable, but it didn’t take long for her to become a hypervelocity projectile.
THE EARS. LOOK AT THE EARS.
Bandit is a Bernadoodle, a fuzzly little Bernadoodle! Six months old and one hell of a lover.
Thailand is three, and is a professional mom! That is to say, she carries litters for Guide Dogs for the Blind up in San Rafael. I do not have her pups’ stats available but if she’s anything to judge by, they’re probably super-awesome guide dogs!
I’m not sure ‘Odin’ quite captures this three-year-old’s super-happy personality, but hey, a cute-dog-nose by any other name smells just as well, right?
Got my pictures of Tunnel (2, male) after it’d gotten quite dim outside, so most of them were blurry, but I still wanted to show him off because you don’t see a whole lot of ridgeback mixes even around here.
A toller, a toller! And she’s pretty big for a five-month-old. She’s already a handful, as you can see on her so-far-sparse but still ridiculously adorable instagram. Pretty soon she’s going to be two handfuls. Handsful? Something like that.
That’s a whole lot of words! And Shasta (2, girl) is a whole lotta dog.
I just met Mr. Carson, who is a 5 year old perfect gentleman, with a very abbreviated Instagram account displaying the trophies he has won. His owner wasn’t particularly looking for a show dog, but he did want a Norwich, and he was able to jump to the head of the queue (pre-COVID) by agreeing to show Mr. Carson. And thus was born a champion!
You all should go check out Mr. Carson’s instagram and encourage him and his folks to post more pictures.
I have Shawayse (11, male) down as an unknown mix, but his mom is pretty sure there’s some pit in there, and I have to say I agree.
