Dog of the Day: Gusgus the Bernadoodle

Bernadoodles are nearly as ‘happy stoner of the dog world’ as golden retrievers are. Gusgus, who will be two in April, is no exception.

Sunday Switchup: Babe Ridge

Just say it out loud and you’ll get it.

A bunch of TV shows had main characters that lived right near this spot (on Telegraph Hill). You can see why, it’s super picturesque.

Dog of the Day: Finley the Dachshund And (Sorta) Birthday Puppy

So okay hear me out: a one-year-old dog is about similar to a twelve year old kid: almost finished getting taller, not finished filling out, physically able to do most things an adult can but sooooo not ready to actually be an adult. So it just makes sense to me that a one-year-old dog should get twelve birthdays, and that equals one a month, and so Finley, who was born seven months ago today, is having a birthday today, and this is a hill that I will die on.

(Sorry, next week I’ll have a cat for you on caturday but this was important.)

Dog of the Day: Parked Collie

Ran across two separate collies last week. Unusual! This one was ‘parked’ outside a local coffee shop. I sure hope he got a pup-a-cino!

Two pictures, and three minutes worth of petting the floof. A good trade, I’d say. (By which I mean, I got two things I liked!)

Dog of the Day: Frank the “Mutt”

Part border collie? Australian shepherd? Other things? Not sure. I just know that Frank is 4, and Frank is fun.

I promise I’m not holding the leash. I just wish I were.

Repeat Customer of the Day: Rufus the Puli

I first ran into Rufus a year and a half ago, when he was one year old, when he was but a wee pre-puli with no dreadlocks at all. Today he looks a lot different!

Well, now I know what a white puli with dreadlocks looks like: a R-A-G-G-M-O-P-P ragmop!

Caturday Supplement: Lola the Ridiculous

This is a friend of Autumn’s in New York.

Very Sad Looking White Cat With Folded Ears
I’m not sure I’d be able to leave the house with this cat going un-petted.
Cat Face With Huge Sad Eyes
Yeah I think that might be the saddest cat-face I’ve ever seen.

Dog of the Day: Dexter the Believe It Or Not Bernadoodle Puppy

Dexter is six months old! Dexter is also eight months old! How is this possible? Well, it just so happens that I took some pictures of Dexter last December, and somehow they got imported into my photos app on my computer but did not get imported into the ‘imports’ folder, and so I had no idea they even existed. (In fact, it just took me over fifteen minutes to find them even knowing to look for them so there’s that.) And then I ran into Dexter again and his mom told me that I hadn’t posted him, and that Dexter was very disappointed.

Dexter is also CLEARLY a Bernese mountain dog, who is also a bernadoodle genetically but he looks nothing like a bernadoodle at all. So hey, he can be two different ages at the same time if he wants to be.

Edit: OMG I saw Dexter today! Don’t see a lot of pups on their actual day. So awesome!

And here he is at eight months. Same cute, but the light is a heck of a lot crappier for photography. Glad I found the earlier ones!

Double Dog Day: Joy the Goldendoodle and Danbi the Adoptable Standard Poodle

We have an adoptable pup today! Danbi is the big ‘un: she’s a seven-year-old standard poodle, and she’s a very kind and gentle pup, who loves people and other dogs and, so far as we can determine, everything else, except maybe for not being adopted yet. (She certainly loves Joy, who is her temporary sister, and also seven years old, but not up for adoption.

If she looks like you might like her as much as she would undoubtedly like you, you can find her at Second Chances!

White Standard Poodle And Small Goldendoodle
I’ve seen Danby a couple of times now, and I keep thinking she looks a little like a Bedlington terrier.

No adopting this one, he has a happy home!

C’mon… she’s waiting for you!
