    Dog stories with Photos

    Post a photo of your dog and tell us a story about him or her. I'll start....





    This is Chai, our new puppy. Her mother was a german short haired pointer mix and her father was a GREAT DANE mix. She is goingt obe a really big mutt when she grows up. She's eight months old now and chews everything....whole bars of soap, fresh cooked bundt cakes (yup, the whole thing!), sprinkler heads...she's even begun to dig up the underground sprinkler system in my back yard! It's pretty funny to watch. Great dog!

    I'll add a story about fiddle once I have a large format photo. For now here's some 35mm shots.


    A quick shot of Buddy, a rescued JR pup. He's not mine, and he's a nightmare.







    And here's fiddle



    I'll take a LF shot of fiddle ASAP. I have a 10x8 test neg of him sleeping but it's rubbish.

    Some friends with their Swedish Valhund.
    Funny how people look like their dogs.

    This is Kaleb. He is a 2 1/2 year old pitbull mix. My ex and I rescued him for the CACC on 110th st. in Harlem... he was hours away from execution..

    Billie, a heeler mix. She's loosing the sight in her right eye; it gives her a slightly skeptical countenance, but generally she is of good and stable humor. A wonderful dog.

    Our dog Missy who we rescued six years ago when she was a puppy. Missy is no longer with us because she contracted a disease similar to leukemia and went from apparent good health on January 3 to death on January 9. She was a wonderful wonderful dog, my best friend and constant companion.

    Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
    a mile away and you'll have their shoes.

    Molly was a Jagdterrier (German hunting terrier), she spent 15 years with us. She survived three cancer surgeries within a month when she was 11, bounced back as if nothing had happened at all and went on strong for another 4 years. Then she started having pain one day and was gone the next, lung cancer this time. This picture was taken when she was 14.

    BTW, all dogs are wonderful. It'd be great if people could really resemble them...

    This is Sassy - she is from hell.

    One afternoon when visiting friends in Seattle I took a break from darkroom work to take the "The Sassulator" on a walk. Imagine my surprise when I came across this Washington license plate, seemingly tailor-made for this mutt!

    Yes, Marko - even Sassy is wonderful...in her special way

    Was this supposed to be LF images? I can't photograph my dog with a view camera (I don't have enough extension for macro work).

    Here's a proper portrait:



    And here she is defending me from the fuzz-generator.
