Puppy of the Day: Sadie the Shetland Sheepdog Puppy

Posted on July 22, 2021 by Adam Lang

Sadie (six months old) is an amazing representative of a pretty amazing breed. Teeeeensy little herding dogs, even littler than corgis, although perhaps not quite as low to the ground.

Puppy of the Day: Scout the Miniature Bernese Mountain Dog Poodle Mix

Posted on July 21, 2021 by Adam Lang

Scout is four months old, and full of energy and a great desire to lick anyone or anything that gets in his way. Or gets anywhere near his way. Or doesn’t but looks like it might be thinking about getting near his way at some indefinable future date.

Scout’s mom has an instagram, #laurieblessen. It’s mostly her art, but it has a few amazingly adorable puppy pictures in it!

Puppy of the Day: Bob the Cocker Spaniel Poodle Mix

Posted on July 19, 2021 by Adam Lang

Bob is a six-month-old cockapoo, that most unfortunate of dog breed names, but he doesn’t seem to mind. And of course he doesn’t, because who would care about their breed name when they have such an awesome personal name as BOBBO THE DOGGO! (And no, he is not this Bobbo the Doggo, who is three years older and from Manchester, England.)

That goatee! Almost makes me want to grow one.

Caturday Supplement: Frankie The Cutie

Posted on July 17, 2021 by Adam Lang

I’m cat-sitting this week! Frankie hid from me most of the afternoon, but it didn’t take long for her to warm up, and now she’s lying on the bed waiting for me to come cuddle.

Dog of the Day: Maggie the Italian Mastiff Puppy

Posted on July 14, 2021 by Adam Lang

Okay, so I’m pushing the definition of puppy here, but Maggie is still only 10 months old. Quite a big ‘un, isn’t she?

She’s our first cane corso puppy, and only our third one ever.

Puppy of the Day: Levi the Golden Retriever

Posted on July 13, 2021 by Adam Lang

I was out for a walk this morning and, mirabile dictu, I ran into four puppies in a row, all between 5 and 7 months in age. I am taking this as a sign and am announcing this and next week as PUPPY WEEKS!

Today, meet Levi, who I ran into a month ago. He is two months old and he will lick you.

Caturday Supplement: Fica The Traveller

Posted on July 10, 2021 by Adam Lang

Fica (a boy, a nickname for ‘Phillip’) is a visitor from overseas. He’s quite adventurous, for a kitty, and seems to be carefully keeping track of everything going on outside his little chauffeured vehicle.

We were hanging out near the pond at the Palace of Fine Arts. Fica seemed quite interested in the egrets and great blue herons.

Dog of the Day: Pretzel the “Border Collie Mini Doodle” Puppy

Posted on July 8, 2021 by Adam Lang

First of all, how awesome a name is ‘Pretzel?’ Second, I am not sure what ‘border collie mini doodle’ means, but it’s what I have written down. Possibly half goldendoodle and half border collie, or possibly just border collie/poodle. Anyway, she’s eight months old, and looks amazingly scruffy but is actually quite soft. Just like me! (Well… if I don’t shave for a day.)

Almost qualifies as a ‘schnozz shot’.

Dog of the Day: Buddy the Siberian Husky German Shepherd Mix Puppy

Posted on July 7, 2021 by Adam Lang

Buddy, AKA The Dog With All The Ears, is six months old, and can hear us talking about him, but I’m sure he doesn’t mind. Even if he wasn’t terribly friendly with me after I giggled at him. He did seem to like the friend I was with when I saw him, though, and she did a little giggling of her own.

Pretty goofy, huh? Trust me when I say that they’re even goofier in person.
