I went out to do a little shopping this evening, and I ran into a few pups. There was one who was adorable, and one who was noble, and one who really really wanted to say hi. But there was only one who was glorious, and that was Bodhi, the 4 year old German shepherd mix. (Probably with golden retriever, judging from the fluffy tocks!)
A great place to run across dogs: right outside a butcher’s shop/steakhouse.
Caught him halfway through a yawn.
Just glorious.
Autumn sent me this pup. I don’t know what her name is or how old she is but she’s AMAZING.
Someone got shorn, everywhere but the face. Funny effect.
I decided to try something from the Philmore Creamery today: a Cherry Crumble Pie with Gianduia Gelato.
Verdicts:
Pie: 3/5. It’s fine, but the nothing distinguished. The crush isn’t flaky, it’s just sort of there. The oat mixture on top is tasty but not particularly interesting from a texture point of view. The cherries are mostly whole, which makes them awkward and not entirely pleasant to chew on. The filling is a little sweeter than I like but still well within my comfort zone.
Ice cream: 3/5. Also fine. It’s a perfectly good chocolate ice cream, but there’s not a lot of hazelnut flavor that I could detect. And frankly, as a chocoholic, chocolate ice cream has never been in my top ten. However, it’s definitely very creamy and rich.
I was out wandering this afternoon, after picking up my spanky new set of glasses, when I ran into this fine fellow. When I asked what his name was, Boru’s mom said, “His name is Boru,” and then the two of us chorused together, “As in Brian Boru.” She was impressed. I guess not a whole lot of Americans have heard of Brian Boru.
Boru is four years old, and eternally happy, saggy-sadface or not.
San Francisco isn’t really keeping up its street cleaning, in the current ‘total shut-down’ environment. I can understand why, but yech.
Believe it or not, this Taco (6 months old) is not the first Taco that we’ve had on here. Definitely the youngest and shiniest, though.
This shade is called ‘English cream’. Pretty!
This was back in the pre-COVID days, when everyone could swarm around every cute puppy that happened by.
I may have dogsat this pup, but I can’t remember for the life of me it. Maybe I just ran into him at a party.
Someone wants to make it very clear that you are not getting into this bed without paying the dog tax.
Hanu (a boy) was eleven months old in these pictures. I would never have guessed?
Unusual fur texture for a labradoodle.
Oh my god the ears.
And the anime puppydog eyes.
A pit bull boxer mix makes an utterly hilarious puppy.
Zeus (2) is a bit too tired to play right now, but soon! Soon!
You just want to trace the line from upper lip right up the nose and all the way to the top of the head.
I ran into this pup at a friend’s birthday party, a couple years back. And I forgot to get his name!
Edit: OMG as I am informed below in the comments, this is Marlow, and is in fact being held by his owner. I have a great memory, don’t I?
This isn’t the pup’s owner, just a good friend. (Edit: Er, no, wrong, see above.)
