I ran into Sugo (4) and his mom and dad while I was out wandering before work one day last week. And it turns out that he is one of the mascots for a nice little restaurant on Fillmore Street, right at the top of Pacific Heights, called Jackson Fillmore Trattoria.
I am told that Prince (8 years old now) is a ‘repeat customer’, that I’ve taken pictures of him before. I’m going to have to take his mom’s word for it, because I only have one ‘Prince’ in my picture history, and although he’s the right age, he’s very much not the right color. Oh well, at least I have his name now.
When I stopped by the vet to say hello to the two kittens (last Caturday and next Caturday), I also found Oscar in for his healthy 15-week-old puppy exam. He liked watching the kitties as much as I did.
I don’t really know what to say about these. So I won’t.
I was walking along Polk Street, past a relatively new veterinarian’s office, when I saw a little cutie peering out at me. So I snapped a few pictures of him and his brother, just in for healthy-kitten checkups. I think this is Guddi, and next week we’ll have his brother, Zahar.
They have an instagram account, but, and this is TERRIBLE, there’s nothing in it yet. Follow them, and then badger their folks mercilessly until they post MORE CUTE CAT PICTURES.
Bailey gave me the exact opposite problem, if you can call it that, from yesterday’s pup, as you can see below: basically all you have to do is aim your camera at her and pull the trigger and you get something amazing.
Today, instead of my normal ‘post a picture or two with captions and hovertext’, I would like to give you an idea of how hard (and how much fun!) it sometimes is to get pictures of these dogs. Dogs like Moshi, the 5-month-old puppy with enough energy to power about two thirds of the state.
The first couple look pretty reasonable, but it didn’t take long for her to become a hypervelocity projectile.
THE EARS. LOOK AT THE EARS.
Bandit is a Bernadoodle, a fuzzly little Bernadoodle! Six months old and one hell of a lover.
Thailand is three, and is a professional mom! That is to say, she carries litters for Guide Dogs for the Blind up in San Rafael. I do not have her pups’ stats available but if she’s anything to judge by, they’re probably super-awesome guide dogs!
