Okay, it's been a while, but whoof, it's been a long run of bad days...

So, here is your intermittent, not quite so daily, #DailyBarlow!

A fluffy black dog looks at the camera.

Been a bit, so here's a new #DailyBarlow from the other day when he was looking like an especially fluffy floof.

Two black dogs trail after a man in a hat and coat carrying a bag.

In today's intermittent installment of your #DailyBarlow, I give you himself and his pal, Ceilidh (my parents' dog), rushing to perform their official duties as "treat inspectors" after my dad returned from the grocery store the other day. 😊

A black dog looks back at the camera.

#DailyBarlow (with occasional interruptions):

Has been lying down peaceably for an hour. 8pm hits. Immediately pops up. "Excuse me, sir, have you noticed the time? I believe I am due my nighttime walk." (Which is of course at 9pm.)

He's not a big fan of Standard Time.

This is our nightly routine: last time out to go chase varmints (in Brooklyn, it's essentially making the squirrels scamper to the next yard). 😊🐶

A black dog sleeps on his owner's foot.

Well, friends, the last couple of weeks have been tough, so I'm sorry I haven't been as regular with my #DailyBarlow posts.

But here's how we spend most mornings, afternoons, and evenings. And it's how I'm (barely) getting by. (Y'all with #velcrodogs surely understand.)

#Dogs #DogsOfBluesky

So, for your #DailyBarlow, I give you himself with his Irish up. (I can say that as we're a part Irish family.) 😊 I missed the full-on zoomies, but you get the adorable aftermath here.

I know these get old, but I find himself looking back over his shoulder at me so cute. So, once again, for the #DailyBarlow, I give you...

For your #DailyBarlow today, his hindquarters.

He's getting older, but he's had those white toe-mittens forever.

And though he's supposedly an Aussie (clearly the dominant breed in the mix, 'cause he ain't a purebred), love his fluffy tail. 😊

Today’s #DailyBarlow is himself ignoring me because I won’t let him out…

…until I do let him out. 😊

Well, we took a night off for the Super Bowl. But! Your #DailyBarlow is back: here is himself being camera shy. 😊

The snow has returned! Which means I can provide a classic #DailyBarlow with himself smiling and dappled in flakes.

Hope you're all having a great night.

Today's #DailyBarlow: himself says hallo. 😊

A black dog sits on a carpet while a calico cat sits on a chair behind him.

Today's #DailyBarlow features Millie the calico. 🐈 *Occasionally,* she will hide under a piece of furniture to swipe at himself, but mostly they just go about their business ignoring each other.

Well, y'all, I know I said it'd be the last #DailyBarlow with snow for a while, but there was still a smidge left yesterday, and I do so enjoy seeing the contrast of his dark fur against a white backdrop, so one here's one more... until the next storm. 😊

#Dogs #DogsOfBluesky

A black dog lies on a carpet with his paw on his human's leg.

For today's #DailyBarlow, I give you one of himself's cutest habits: placing a paw on my leg or foot (when doesn't simply use the latter for a pillow), so he knows where I am while he naps.

Today's #DailyBarlow: the last snow themed pic of himself for a while, as we saw a lot of melting today. I call it "Please, sir, may I come in?"

Or, alternatively (given how he barks to announce he wants back in), "Open up, bud! Right now!"

Today’s #DailyBarlow: who needs a weather person when you have a fluffy friend who is constantly asking to go outside?

For today's #DailyBarlow, I give you a very Shining moment he gave me today. 😬 (Fortunately, the blurry tail told me he was actually happy to see me.) 😊

Friends, today has been a very bad day. And so, for today's #DailyBarlow, I give you a gentle king in repose. (Spoiler: it's himself.) 😊

Today's #DailyBarlow features himself announcing his return to all the critters, varmints, and beasties who inhabit the woods upstate.

Oh no, friends! Work got busy there for a minute and I forgot to share your #DailyBarlow the last two days. To make up for my oversight, here is an extra cute 📸 of himself!

To fight the #SundayScaries, I offer your #DailyBarlow: himself sending best wishes for the week ahead.

Friends, for your Saturday #DailyBarlow, I have captured the rare, beautiful Barlow Blep! 😛

Late again tonight, but here's your #DailyBarlow: just himself being adorbs. 😁

Your #DailyBarlow. As you can see, his life is quite rough. 😊🥱

Today’s #DailyBarlow is a shot of himself doing his best polar bear impression. (Actually, he does that effect he wants scritches.) 😊 Ceilidh, obviously, is confused.

Today's #DailyBarlow doubles as a timeline cleanse for any who may need it (especially in the wake of what #Elon just did). Lord knows it helps me.

Behold! Himself spent the day at the beauty parlor!
