Dog of the Day: Wrigley the Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Posted on February 28, 2022 by Adam Lang

Wrigley is such a great name for a happy dog, isn’t it? And Wrigley (2, girl) is exactly that.

Dog of the Day: Midgie the Chihuahua Terrier Mix

Posted on February 25, 2022 by Adam Lang

Midgie (a girl, and one year old) is a little cutie. I’m not sure what she is named after: the only ‘midgie’ I knew of before I did a little googling was a nasty, tiny, blood-sucking insect from Scotland, and I trust that nobody is mean enough to name their dog after those monsters. Google says that ‘Midgie’ is the name of a dog from the series of books called ‘The Baby-Sitters Club’, so I am choosing to believe that she was named for that.

Midgie is a very curious pup, and doesn’t have the shakiness that so many of the smaller Chihuahuas do.

Dog of the Day: Raven the EARS OMG THE EARS

Posted on February 24, 2022 by Adam Lang

Raven (a girl, of unknown age) was found in Southern California, wandering around looking lost. When her current owner adopted her, the rescue said that Raven was a Mexican hairless, also known as a Xoloitzcuintli. And she looked exactly like one… except then she grew fur! Very short and soft and velvety fur, but fur nevertheless. So who knows?

Is it just me or do those ears look almost exactly like bat wings?

Dog of the Day: Hachi the Husky

Posted on February 22, 2022 by Adam Lang

Hachi is 8, and has had quite a life: he was born in a puppy mill, who then abandoned him along with the rest of the litter at an animal hospital when they cane down with parvo. Hachi was the only survivor, but he seems to be doing great now.

Dog of the Day: Maeby the German Shepherd Labrador Retriever Mix

Posted on February 17, 2022 by Adam Lang

I’m not 100% sure that this is the pup that goes with the notes I took, so: is this really Maeby (2 years old)? Perhaps! Is Maeby really a German Shepherd Lab mix? Possibly! Is Maeby actually a Rottie mix of some kind instead? …okay, okay, maybe!

Whatever she is, she sure has cute eyebrows.

Could be some pit in there, if not Rottie, with that square jaw.

Dog of the Day: Sassy the Australian Cattle Dog Mix

Posted on February 16, 2022 by Adam Lang

Sassy (2) is pretty striking, isn’t she?

I bet straying cattle take one look at those eyes and just stagger right back into the herd.

Dog of the Day: Ruggles the Portuguese Water Dog

Posted on February 15, 2022 by Adam Lang

I don’t know where Ruggles’ (13 years old) name comes from (“Ruggles of Red Gap” maybe?) but I do know that he’s as shaggy as a 1970s rug and causes giggles when he licks you, so maybe his real name is ‘Rug-giggles’.

The goatee is amazing. Also, Ruggles doesn’t look anywhere NEAR 13, does he?

Tilly, Tilly, she’s a silly! She’s also eight, but she sure doesn’t look it.

Dog of the Day: Alfie the Mini Dachshund

Posted on February 9, 2022 by Adam Lang

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.

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