Dog of the Day: Scruffy (and Hungry) Little Pup

Someone can’t quite reach the remains of that burger.

Seems kind of mean, keeping your pup at table level.

Caturday Supplement: First of the Macy’s Kitties

I dropped by Macy’s on the first day of the new kittens-and-puppies display: Thanksgiving Day. Look who was there!

This kitten spent an inordinate amount of time trying to get out of the enclosure. I wonder how many escaped the first year they did this display?

Dog of the Day: Rilley the Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd!

Rilley is 5 months old, and is named after a character fromĀ Confederacy of Dunces. He is not a dunce (and the Rilley from the book is not, in fact, one of the dunces for which the book is named). What he is is a mix of a wide variety of herd-ivorous caninity: Australian shepherd, German shepherd, and probably at least a couple other herding dogs as well. And if his current size and floofy feet are anything to go on, he’s gonna be a biggun!

His fur looks wiry and scruffy. It is not. It is suuuuuuper soft.

Dog of the Day: Amelia the Siberian Husky

Six years old, and surprisingly calm for a husky. But very friendly!

Grinning Siberian Husky

This is like 15 feet from my front door. But I haven’t seen her since August! NO FAIR!

Dog of the Day: Blue Merle Dachshund

Someone is very… serious.

Stuffing floof into clothing makes for a silly pup.

Dog of the Day: Jojo (AKA Get Back Jojo) the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Puppy

How did I not know that the name of that Beatles song was ‘Get Back Jojo’? I always thought they were saying ‘Georgia’ and it never once occurred to me to wonder why the guy’s name was Georgia.

Anyway, Jojo was 7 months old in these pictures. Too many great ones for captions or hovertext, so you just get a big honking photogenic photo-tastic photodump!

Dog of the Day: Posey the Lakeland Terrier

I saw Posey (4, a girl) and said “Oh, a Welsh terrier? Er, I mean an Irish, er, wait…” But no, Posey is our first grown-up Lakeland terrier, although we did have one pretty adorable puppy a while back.

This was taken on a darn good dog day: I got pictures of fourteen dogs that day!

Dog of the Day: Roscoe the German Shepherd American Pit Bull Terrier Pembroke Welsh Corgi Mix

Roscoe is one of my favorite dogs from my old job, at Hipmunk. I am very sorry that I will not be seeing him again as often, but hopefully I’ll be able to drop by occasionally to give him some tummy rubs.

It’s not often you see a mutt with the perfect folded eartips like those.
