Dog of the Day: Trixie the Shiba Inu

Welp. Yesterday my computer kind of melted, and I got to spend most of Thanksgiving and Black Friday backing it up and then reinstalling the OS. There was nothing wrong with it except for the OS, and I haven’t the foggiest idea why or how it happened.

Regardless, happy belated Thanksgiving. I am thankful for Trixie, here, who is one of my favorite dogs in the land. She is the shop dog for a local grocery store, and is always happy to greet friends, especially when they come bearing skritches.

Shibas always seem to love chin-scratches more than other dogs, and cheek scratches even moreso!

Double Dog Day: The Puppies of Perpetual Confusion

Autumn’s babysitting a pair of boxers. They’re so adorable, with the saggy lips and the floppy-down ears and the puzzled expressions.

Don’t you just want to ‘blblblblblblbl’ those lips?

Dog of the Day: Goofy Little Foofly Wiener

Someone looks awfully sly. I wonder what she’s thinking?

Someone went down to the beach and got a bit… sticky!

He looks very proud, doesn’t he?

Dog of the Day: Loki the Labrador Retriever American Pit Bull Terrier Mix

Meet Loki, a 15-year-old pup! I dunno, I didn’t see him as a Loki. More of an Odin.

He kept me company while I was having dinner at an outdoor cafe a couple months ago.

Despite his age, he seemed to be doing pretty well. No real trouble standing up and sitting down again, for example.

Dog of the Day: Rae the Goldendoodle Puppy

Our last puppy of the run: Rae is an 8-month-old goldendoodle who wants to lick your nose!

Another pup who is next to impossible to get a non-blurry shot of.

It is ALWAYS face-licking time with Rae. Even when said face is covered by a mask.

Dog of the Day: Ollie the Australian Shepherd Puppy

Well, things are calming down, and as far as I can tell nobody has been set on fire by either side of our great national divide, so I’m going to call that a plus. I think our puppy emergency is officially over… but I ran into a couple of puppies over the weekend and I can’t resist so I will be posting them anyway. This one is named Ollie, and he is a soft happy adorable Australian shepherd of four months… and he is HUGE for his age.

Also: all of the pictures except the first two were submitted by Ollie’s folks, and are published as-is with no captions or hovertext. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did! (Especially the last one. THAT PUPPYBELLY!)

It was next to impossible to get good pictures of him. It was little dim outside, and he was a complete blur.

That floof is just as soft as it looks.

Encore Puppy of the Day: Skippy the German Shepherd

Well, we’re still in need-a-puppyland, so here: have a previously-unpublished picture of the already-posted Skippy, at 10 weeks of age. RIDICULOUS!

I wish we could check up on Skippy, but his instagram seems to have been taken down. BOOOO!
