Pekes are too funny

Sabrina Ko — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 06:33:44 +0000

We had small dogs once…two little Pekinese’s in fact. My Pekinese was named Missy and she was as smart as she was vicious with a serious Napoleon complex…just a law suit waiting to happen. And although I don’t think I’ll ever go back to having a small dog, every time I see a Pekinese thinking it rules the world, I smile.

Bianca

It’s been a while since I posted a photo of the Fluffy Puppies. Here’s Bianca at her favorite place, Fort Funston. Ever since a dog was stabbed by the owner of a pitbull at Fort Funston, I don’t really want to take the dogs back there until justice has been served. I think the courts let people who hurt animals off too easily, but I won’t even start on that topic because I could go on and on.

Dogs will be dogs

Golden retrievers are my favorite non-snow dog, meaning if there were no Samoyeds, Malamutes or Huskies, a goldie is the dog I would get. Andrew, however, loves them and wants our next dog to be just like this one. They do quintessentially doggy things, like fetch, give you cute innocent “who me” looks, and roll around in the dirt (thank goodness Bianca & Sorcha don’t do that!).

For pictures that will have you ooh-ing and aah-ing and wanting to get your own little Golden Retriever pup, check out the Picasa albums from Diego Cremona: Goldens-Done and SomerTime.

Sleeping Bee-auty

Such a precious puppy when she sleeps. It’s quiet and calm – no barking, no knocking people over, no trying to steal food from the kitchen table. For 10 minutes, all is quiet in the house.

My sister’s obsession

Teresa sure loves this dog…and unfortunately, Sorcha knows it.

Snowy Birthday

The Fluffy Puppies turned six on Sunday. For their birthday gift, they got a trip to Tahoe for a hike in the snow. They were totally in their element.

Snow Dogs

Do all dogs love snow? These ones did.

Some dogs love the snow, some dogs hate it. But only a few breeds are made for the snow. Sheba, an eight-month old husky, was clearly in her element. Can’t wait to bring the Fluffy Puppies up to Tahoe to frolick and play. They live for the snow.

Capone

Whenever I used to make an angry or pouty face as a child, my grandfather would say in a teasing voice, “Don’t make that Al Capone face. Show me a Marilyn Monroe face instead.” Well, if he could only see this Capone face, maybe he would feel differently.

Chloe & Sophie

My friend Q. has two cute Pomeranian-Maltese mix girls, Chloe and Sophie. They’re all white, like my dogs, and tiny, not like my dogs. When I first met them, I nicknamed them the Mini Fluffy Puppies. At Q’s baby shower, we did a quick photo shoot of Chloe and Sophie, who had just been groomed. They weren’t so fluffy this time around, having just gotten back from the salon.

Chloe is such a ham and loves to pose for photographs. Sophie is shy with people and with cameras.

I have a soft spot for Sophie even though Chloe steals the spotlight.
