Caturday Supplement: Feral Bay-Cat

Was out wandering down by the Bay last weekend and I ran into this cutie.

Can’t tell if those are light green eyes or it’s just a reflection from plants. Pretty anyway!

Double Dog Day: Jude the Pomeranian Shih Tzu and Jack the French Bulldog Puppy

Jude is 12, and is showing Jack (4 months) around the city. They’re adorable together.

Old Pomeranian Mix And French Bulldog Puppy
This was one of those ‘two hands, two dogs, five minutes’ situations. I.e. perfect.

Double Dog Day: Shiso and Kowi the Poster Dogs for PetPlay

Shiso (a four-year-old American Staffordshire terrier supermutt mix) and Kowi (a one-year-old American Indian dog malamute husky mix) are the poster dogs for a San Francisco-based pet products company. And they’re very good at their jobs.

Kowi is our first ever mix of American Indian dog. Isn’t he distinctive-looking? Looks a lot like a husky but at the same time very different!

Dog of the Day: Keno the Mastiff Pit Bull Mix Puppy

I ran into Keno a couple months ago, when he was three months old, and somehow neglected to post any of his pictures. And then I ran into him again a few days ago, and oh my god he’s so much bigger now! So now I’m posting before and after pics.

At this age he had about 5 times as much skin as he needed.

Dog of the Day: Emmett the Chihuahua Dachshund Terrier Gamer Mix

I spent the weekend at a gaming festival, playing board games and role-playing games and other such silliness. I met a lot of neat people and also a few neat dogs. This one is Emmett, who played two games with me, along with his mom (in one) and his dad (in the other). He was, of course, the Most Valuable Pupper.

Dachshund Chihuahua Terrier Mix
Both he and I are well over the average age for attendees — at least in scale.

So we both needed a little extra rest.

I made sure to sit next to Emmett both days. I mean, games are fun, but I have my priorities!

Dog of the Day: Mikey the Chihuahua Dachshund Pomeranian Supermutt

Mikey (6) likes it! And ‘it’ in this case is people. He also likes being the star of his own adorable instagram page: mikeythelittledude.

Ridiculous ears? Check! Ridiculous tail? Check! Fluffy chaps? Check check check check!

His ears aren’t USUALLY like this, but I love them this way.

Dog of the Day: Polo the English Cocker Spaniel Puppy

Polo is only ten months old! And if he maybe looks a bit like he was put together out of spare parts, the important thing is that they are adorable spare parts!

Looks more like a pointer than a spaniel in this pose.

Cocker ears. You just want to wrap yourself up in them like a blanket.

Typical cocker goofiness.

Dog of the Day: Bruno the Siberian Husky

Bruno doesn’t look 8, does he?

Siberian Husky Sitting On A Bridge And Grinning
Someone was tied up a little ways away from where his folks were having lunch. I suspect he would have been a bit of a pest otherwise.

Dog of the Day: Tipo the Italian Greyhound

Tipo is 5, and he is very very ZOOOOM!

Italian Greyhound In A Play Bow
I told Tipo he was a good boy and he immediately went into a play bow, with only his tail moving. You can see: he’s 100% sharp except for blurry tail-stub.
