San Francisco, California - Doggie Diner The Doggie head is BACK! He had blown over in a wind storm, but he's back up on his pole in front of the Carousel, with a beautiful new coat of paint! [kdoyle, 04/18/2004]
San Francisco, California - Doggie Diner Dog Head The Doggie Diner opposite the San Francisco Zoo on Sloat
Avenue has been a favorite eating and Dog Head viewing place for years.
Recently this last remaining Dog Head has been under threat. The nursery
next door bought the site and wanted to remove the Dog Head. Dog Head lovers
from all over protested and the Dog Head was saved. Mother Nature then took
action and toppled the Dog Head on its fiberglass nose during a windstorm.
The City of San Francisco went to work using other salvaged (saved) Dog Heads, owned by a fellow in Emeryville, as patterns. The Sloat Avenue Dog Head has been restored and placed back on his pedestal across from the zoo and next to the evil nursery. [Tim Timberlake, 07/16/2001]
