This is one of those posts I found in my draft folder. We found these lovely dogs in Williamsburg, Virginia, a few years ago.
Two young ladies in colonial costumes were very taken with this lovely dog, as was the little girl.
A Welsh Terrier enjoying a walk .
Liberty Dog - a cardboard cutout - was welcoming skaters to the ice-skating rink in the middle of the town (it was in the winter when we visited).
This young dog's ears were standing at attention, but he seemed happy and content.
There were many more dogs enjoying a walk with their human companions. It was a lovely day for walking.
I will leave you with one quote I found from Ogden Nash. It made me smile.
"A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of."
ha ha, know all about the wrong side of the door.. love all these pretty pups. the cardboard looks real, if you had not said what it is, would have thought it was a dog
ReplyDeleteI bet you do :) The cardboard dog was stuck on the plexiglass fence surrounding the ice rink.
DeleteBeautiful dogs!
ReplyDeleteI thought so too :)
DeleteThanks for warming our hearts
ReplyDeleteYou are so very welcome Cloudia.
DeleteAwww.
ReplyDeleteLove that quote - which applies equally (if not more so) to cats.
Cats too EC :)
DeleteHi Denise,
ReplyDeleteWonderful set of images of some lovely dogs.
The first dog appears to be a Golden Retriever, a breed I am very involved with as Vice Chairman of the breed.
Golden Retrievers are always on the wrong side of the door or they think they are.
All the best, John
How interesting John. They are a beautiful and sweet natured dog. All the best to you too :)
DeleteBeautiful dogs. All look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI agree :)
DeleteYou wonder what the dogs think of the traditional clothing- or the scents of a blacksmith shop, which would definitely be outside their everyday experience.
ReplyDeleteThere are definitely times I wish I spoke dog :)
DeleteLove the quote. My this one dog has such big ears, I have never seen one like this.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen anything quite like him either.
DeleteLovely doggy post made me reflect on my long lost dogs. They were wonderful and I still miss them.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely understand Valerie, I feel the same way.
DeleteHello, I love dogs. They are all beautiful, the last one is so cute with those big ears. Happy Thursday, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteMe too Eileen :) Have a great day!
DeleteWonderful photos of the dogs and such a cute quote!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lois, happy you enjoyed.
DeleteOh, such delightful shots! I love the ears on the dog in that last pic.
ReplyDeleteThank you LadyFi, they are cute aren’t they?
DeleteNice to see these dogs Denise, thank you.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
You are very welcome Jan, so glad you enjoyed them.
DeleteLovely photos of lovely doggies .
ReplyDeleteThanks Country Gal!
DeleteDarling doggies enjoying Colonial Williamsburg. It's a great place to take them for a walk as well as myself. Cute post, Denise! ♥
ReplyDeleteThanks Martha Ellen:)
DeleteI love going to festivals and things where dogs are allowed. It is so cool to see. I can’t include Dakota however cause he is worse than a nervous cat in a room of rocking chairs. He is my Sheldon ( Big Bang theory) dog.....set in his ways, odd and not at all easy to get along with.
ReplyDeleteI had a dog like Dakota once so I can empathize. Love the connection to Sheldon. Anyone who knows that show will understand :) You made me smile.
Deleteoh these puppies are so cute!!!! 2nd to last, too cute for words!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debbie :) I loved them.
