| What a darling profile! Peaches is a 10 year old Chihuahua mix. Her humans come all the way from San Francisco to walk in our Scenic Pacifica, which makes me pause and appreciate the beauty we have. According to the humans who rescued her, Peaches has NO bad habits! That is a "first" here at MoriDogs! |

| One of the things I love about doing this blog, besides meeting the dogs and people, is that I get to learn new things about dogs. Until this morning, I didn't know that there is a distinction between a Labradoodle and the Australian Labradoodle. It's too long to go into here, but if you Google it, you'll know too, and see some darling puppy pictures along the way. Charlie is of the Australian variety. He's about 7 months old, and his human is doing a brilliant job with his training. Dried chicken helps a lot, which Charlie was kind enough to share with Luna. Charlie loves to run in the surf, and do the "high five." (For a piece of chicken, of course! See below.) |

| Sierra is a Miniature Australian Shepherd--everything that is lovable in a regulation Aussie, in a tiny package. Here she is, waiting very patiently for her human to finish interacting with the birds. She came to her current home because of a divorce, but has a very nice second life now, complete with her own cat. Her human has created a memorial to his past dogs--if you climb Bootlegger Steps, you might see CJ's and Toby's names inscribed in seats he made and installed there. We're hoping that Sierra's name won't be up there for a very long time. |

| Would you believe that this sweet-looking dog has a bad habit? Ordinarily, Gunny is obedient--but if the humans aren't looking, no Kleenex or paper napkin at Labrador level is is safe from her jaws. So far, she hasn't tried to blame the cat. |

| Ringo is an lively Great Dane/Greyhound mix. He looks and acts like a half-grown Dane, though he is six years old. In these photos, he is at the Pacifica Fog Fest, playing with his new friend, Odin. Ringo' female human found him in Las Vegas, on Craigslist as a 6 month old puppy. On the phone, she was reluctant to disclose his breed to the male human of the family, focusing instead on his need to be rescued. But it all worked out, and even the 5 household cats get along with him now. His male human tells me that Ringo is running for mayor of Pacifica, and as such promises "a cat on every couch, and a milk bone in every hand." Here are some more photos of the spontaneous play date: |

| What a sweet face! Mochi is a new arrival to Pacifica and Mori Point. She is most recently from the Outer Sunset, where there was no dirt, and hardly any sun. Yes, she did get to visit Ocean Beach often, but aren't the Pacifica beaches more FUN?? Mochi thinks so, and is enjoying a backyard dig once in a while, too. |

| I usually post only one photo of each dog, but today I make an exception . First, it's been so hard to find a new dog, now that we're up to #129, so there's lots of room here on the DogBlog, and second, isn't it amazing what a dog can do with her TONGUE? I just love silly dog tongues. |

| Bella is a Shamrock Ranch puppy who is a little camera shy. I find that sometimes dogs are suspicious of the lens; perhaps it looks like a big eye, "dogging" them down. She has the intelligence typical of her breed, if not the overwhelming desire to obey humans. If she is loose, when called to "come" she will come, but stands just far enough to avoid being leashed. A game of "hard to get," I suppose. So like Luna, when she goes out it's all leash, all the time. Not such a bad thing! |
