Dog of the Day: Bane the Havanese

Autumn pointed out Bane from inside of a restaurant. He was sitting out in front along with his folks, and Autumn said “Hey, is that dog grinning at me?”

Apparently so!

It was a crepe restaurant. This may have had something to do with the longing looks.

Dog of the (New Year’s) Day: Bisou the Australian Cattle Dog (Mix?)

‘Bisou’ means ‘kiss’, and Bisou likes to give kisses. She’s 1, and they told me she was an Australian cattle dog mix, although she looks very much like a full-blooded one to me. Except for that happy tail.

I ran into these three right near my home.

Not the most well-trained, perhaps. But sweet as all get-out.

Don’t they make a gorgeous family?

Dog of the Eve: Baghira the German Shepherd Mix

Baggy (6, and probably half German shepherd, and maybe Lab?) is among the goofiest dogs I have seen in quite some time. He very much wants you to have a happy and safe New Year’s Eve.

I ran into this pup in South Bend, outside of a chocolate shop.

He has the goofiest ears, and the greatest grin. Alas, he did not get any chocolate.

Dog of the Day: Atrius the Standard Poodle Puppy

I just ran into Atrius today, while on Christmas vacation in Indiana. He’s eleven weeks old and was a baby shower gift from the folks at a pet store to one of their dog groomers. Now, I’m not entirely sure I would get another baby for someone as a gift for someone celebrating a baby, but, well, at least this one is likely to be house-trained a lot earlier.

I had no idea that poodles didn’t have curly hair from early on.

I’d be just fine if their fur stayed this way. It’s super soft.

Dog of the Day: Begley and His New Christmas Present

I’ve been a bad boy, not posting for four whole days! So in recompense, here’s Begley, one of Autumn’s family dogs, with his favorite Christmas present.

Begley was supposed to have calmed down about five years ago. He hasn’t.

However, he does get tired from leaping all over people after only 20 to 30 minutes now. As oppsed to three hours.

Pretty little kitty. I bet she got snapped up right away.

She tried charming everyone who went by. And did a damn good job.

Dog of the Day: Gaudi the Golden Retriever

Gaudi (meaning ‘joy’, age 7, boy) is a great name for a golden retriever.

Golden Retriever Super-Close-Up

I really like my latest iPhone’s super-wide-angle lens.

Dog of the Day: Winry the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Mix Puppy

I ran into Winry on the same day as I did yesterday’s puppy. Winry was a little less hyper, but no less sweet.

Puppies seem to come in bursts. I saw three in two days!

Totally different attitudes, all equally adorable.

Dog of the Day: Casanova the Husky Puppy

Well, he sure has stolen my heart!

11 week old puppies are uniformly super-frustrating: you want ALL THE PICTURES, but 99% of them don’t come out.
