Dog of the Day: Olivia the Duck Tolling Retriever

Posted on April 28, 2022 by Adam Lang

Olivia, according to my notes, is 2, and ‘a little bit aloof’. She’s also big for her breed, and beautiful.

Someone even knows a few tricks.

I have never figured out why some dogs (goldens and Nova Scotias, primarily) have what looks like a little braid at the front of their ears, but it’s adorable.

What a pretty smile.

Double Dog Day: Walter the Great Pyrenees and Clementine the Australian Cattle Dog Mix

Posted on April 27, 2022 by Adam Lang

Walter is a full-blooded Great Pyrenees, although I hadn’t seen one with dark ears before. Clementine, on the other hand, is a super-mutt, one quarter Australian cattle dog and that’s the biggest percentage she’s got.

I thought he was half Pyrenees and half Anatolian shepherd.

He’s definitely a gentle giant, though.

Looks a lot more than a quarter ACD, doesn’t she?

Dog of the Day: Bulldog

Posted on April 25, 2022 by Adam Lang

I think this might be the shop pup for the Fresh Blades Barber Shop, but I’m not sure.

Brindled Bulldog Looking Deflated
I sometimes wonder why the little tiny bit of tongue. Like, do they forget about it? Or do they just need a little tiny bit of cooling?

Sunday Switchup: Dragons and Snakes?

Posted on April 24, 2022 by Adam Lang

I wonder how long this has been around and I just never noticed it? Looks pretty new, so maybe not too long. It’s amazingly well done. Wonder if the artist lives there?

Dog of the Day: Maisey the Cesky Terrier

Posted on April 23, 2022 by Adam Lang

Just a couple days after our last ‘first’, I ran into another new breed today: Maisey (a girl) is a Cesky (Czech) terrier, which is apparently the second-rarest breed in the United States. According to her owner, there are fewer than 50 of them in the US. I decided to post her today because yesterday was her second birthday, so consider this a belated happy birthday to Maisey-dotes!

Despite being a Czech breed, Maisey is actually an immigrant from Belfast, Ireland.

These two cuties (12) are real sisters, same litter and everything. And they’re doing great… they’re only packed up here because they already walked several miles today!

Dog of the Day: Mookie the American Pit Bull Terrier Mix

Posted on April 20, 2022 by Adam Lang

I met Mookie (2) on a very momentous day: apparently he was about to be adopted! The fellow who was out and about with him was a volunteer for the SFSPCA, who was fostering Mookie, but someone had been to see him twice for adoption and was just about sure they wanted him. And when I checked, he wasn’t on the web site any more, so I think he found a home. Yay, Mookie!

He was a little stressed about being in a bus, but I think fifteen minutes of me petting him helped a little. It sure helped me.

Dog of the Day: Mason the Finnish Lapphund

Posted on April 20, 2022 by Adam Lang

Well, what do you know? Just when I think I’ve seen one of every breed San Francisco has to offer, I run into another first: Mason (1, a boy) is our first Finnish lapphund. And oh boy are they fluffy!

Cream Finnish Lapphund Grinning
Wish I’d run across him about six blocks from this spot (Chestnut and Larkin.) Because then he would have been sitting next to a street sign with his name on it!
