Buddha Shaffer, DOTW for 10/22-10/26!

Buddha Shaffer is the DOTW for the week of 10/22-10/26! Buddha is an 11 year old Vizsla who's been coming to Dog Days since 2005. Buddha still has some energy for an old guy, but is generally a pretty laid-back fellow. He's gotten a lot more gray in his face since he started coming here, and we've enjoyed seeing him become a bit of an elder statesman. One of our favorite things about Buddha is his vocalizations. When you scratch him, he sounds like a car revving its engine. The rumble starts low and deep and then gets louder, sometimes ending in a bark. He also gets a good wiggle going. We love showering him with attention when he's here, and are happy to make him DOTW! Congratulations Buddha!

He's afraid the camera will steal his soul

Roxy Keesling, DOTW for 10/15-10/19!

Roxy Keesling is the DOTW for the week of 10/15-10/19! Roxy is a 7.5 year old beagle who's been coming to Dog Days since she was about 6 months old. Roxy, like most beagles, has a very prominent bark that she uses when she gets excited. She has beautiful almond-shaped eyes, which give her a somewhat exotic look (if a beagle can look exotic!). She will literally play with anyone who will play with her, and has mastered the art of the butt bump better than almost any dog in the small dog area. She always has a lot of fun when she's here, and we always enjoy laughing at her antics. You go girl! Congrats!

Dakota Knecht, DOTW for 10/8-10/12!

Dakota Knecht is the DOTW for the week of 10/8-10/12! Dakota is a 6.5 year old beautiful red Vizsla who's been coming to Dog Days since she was only about 7 months old. Dakota is one of the sweetest dogs we have here, and she loves, loves, loves her people. She occasionally will play with other dogs, and her favorites are always the gentle ones, like Fenway. But she spends most of her time hanging out with her people. It's very tricky getting a picture of Dakota - we're not sure if she thinks the camera is going to steal her soul, or what. But somehow, we managed! She's a very gentle girl, and we love having her come visit with us. Congratulations, Dakota!

Look at me, Dakota!!!!

Pancakes Triano, DOTW for 10/1-10/5!

Pancakes Triano is the DOTW for the week of 10/1-10/5! Pancakes is a 5.5 year-old Cavachon who's been coming to Dog Days since mid-2008. Pancakes loves coming to daycare, and she's one of the best retrievers in the small dog area. She loves to play ball, and will play, non-stop, forever. She is also a snuggler, and loves people attention. She gets both ball time and snuggle time when she visits with us. Everyone here knows Pancakes, and we always enjoy having her come play. She gets along well with all of the little guys, but she's a dog who prefers her people the most. Congratulations, Pancakes - you deserve the title this week!

Waiting for me to throw the ball...
