I have nothing to say but I just wanted to share this picture of Sam, who just looks amazing with her summer cut:
She’s a morkie, but she thinks she is a rottweiler. Her tongue is hanging out because if you remember, she had some horrible disease with her teeth so she had every single one pulled, and now her tongue just flops around, but I think it just makes her cuter. She’s pretty awesome.

what a love

Our Ellie is supposedly 1/8th Rottweiler. We can’t see it in her body, but maybe it’s part of her attitude, too.
‘night all.
Cheers,
Scott.

Very cute. Thanks for Sampic.
Will we get a pic of Cole with his summer cut, soon? ‘sposed to be a full service blog.

Mean this in a nice way.
Looks like a dog built from a kit.

Awww….she’s adorable.
I do not remember this at all. Poor Sam! She looks pretty happy, though. Does she have to eat soft food or something?

Totes adorbs…love the droopy tongue?

Could be a little Ewok in the mix too.

There was a black longhaired dorkie down by the river today. A beautiful little fellow.

I am afraid we are being swarmed by what looks like winged termites. I pay a company every year for insurance and maintenance, but I have horrible memories of many tentings and hope it won’t be necessary this time. Cats hate travel and my current two probably more than the first two I’ve had.
Samantha looks very stylish in her cut, and her tongue is jaunty.

Aww, what a cutie.
I finally finished a comic strip! Now I have to decide whether I want to color it… I’m thinking about going more minimal for this next chapter, or at least not full full color.

Borkie.
Gorkie.
Quorkie.
Zorkie.
Whatever. Mutt is not an insult.

Right time of the year for carpenter ants to swarm. If you are sweeping up just the wings, that would be another sign.

PUPPEH!!!
I’m starting to weaken on getting either a puppeh or a kitteh. The apartment complex I live in has fairly lax rules on this. Temptation to get a Dane is intense.

Fine then, a bluish or tealish tint.
Give your audience some credit for not being empty headed.

I’ve noticed that the new term for mixed breed dogs is “all-American”. That’s what the AKC calls the mixed breed dogs that can now do agility at AKC sponsored trials. I think it’s nice they’re not confining the competition to pure-bred dogs, but if the mixes are all-American, what is my registered dog?

A damn furriner, obviously.

And you’re resisting that temptation why, exactly?

These days most apartments are super pet friendly. The place I’m at lets me have dogs and cats. Get one of each! :-) You won’t regret it! 2xoxo the love! :)

@NotMax:
No, but people are gonna ask ‘What *is* your dog?’ anyways, and knowing some breed background can be useful for health issues as well as general temperament.
Look at it this way: If ‘morkie’ is an insult, than so is ‘Irish-American’. And we Irish-Americans will fight you on that!

@sukabi: I meant something like a stylish healthful slimming new haircut, or maybe even a shave. Is all I meant.
I don’t understand where the minds of some BJ commenters wander.
Edit: I’d never suggest anything like that for, example, Baud. I have some commons sense. Or at least try to.

Since his persistent skin issues have taken a turn for the worse recently, our 16-year-old rescue papillon Zevon just got his first ‘summer cut’ like Sam’s… the groomer misunderstood us, and even trimmed off his lovely plumy tail. Zeev came to live with us when he was 5, and he’s always had a luxuriant pelt with tons of undercoat; with his new ‘puppy cut’, suddenly he looks like a puppy, because he’s a lot leggier than we suspected! (Also, he’s slightly fiddle-fronted, but that’s probably just his age showing.)

Oh, for fuck’s sake, why are they letting the moron weigh in on these things?
Twitler and Peter Navarro are bad enough, but Pence is a disaster. I’m sure he was sending Justin his stern/constipated look through the phone.

@Mary G: I guess in Pence’s reality it make sense to invest millions if not billions in a new business if you don’t know if the laws that apply today still apply in five years time.

@Anne Laurie:
And you sure can’t go by what the shelter tells you! One thing I’ve noticed is that they always proclaim the pups to be a ‘mix’ of the smallest breed they think they can get away with – I guess they figure that makes them more adoptable. Friend of mine adopted a ‘beagle mix’ from a rescue group, and was surprised when the pup grew… and grew… and grew. She did the DNA thing and that dog didn’t have a drop of beagle in her. I think predominantly English foxhound and some largish terrier breed.
One thing about purebred dogs, you have a pretty fair notion what the puppy will look like when it grows up and how big it’s going to get.

I can’t remember if I’m allowed to post links but Huffpo has an insane article about a self-confessed pedophile running for Congress in Virginia.
He’s a Hitler-loving convicted felon who runs website dedicated to child rape but here’s the weird part—he’s running as an independent.
The republican party needs better outreach and branding ’cause this dude is their poster child; Roy Moore, come and get your boy!
sukabi
@hervevillechaizelounge: saw that earlier today…if it was 2 years ago, I’d say don’t worry about it he’d be picked up in short order and be spending some more time behind bars…Drumpf will probably appoint him to oversee the immigrant children they’re snatching from their parents.
