Great pose and crop. Even in illness he still has the alert eyes and ears these breeds are known for.
Years ago I was involved with training our two Rotts and a GSD. It was a personally very rewarding experience which made me a more disciplined person as well as benefiting our companions.
Yes, that is my Fall / Halloween / Thanksgiving backdrop. When people stop by for the themed pictures, I try to also get a few without all the props in the way so they look a little more formal. This was the same event / backdrop that the Orioles mascot was at in a post further down in this forum.
Jim, I love all the pictures of the animals. Some of them break my heart though. :(. What can I say, I just love animals and want them all to be happy, healthy and safe.
I have to give all the credit to the dog though. He is awesome.
Thanks Janet,
It certainly is a roller coaster ride of emotion at times, but overall, it's great.
I can assure you that, at least while he was out that day, this dog was very happy and one could never tell he's sick. I'm sure his owner will do everything to keep him happy and comfortable.
