...near Bull Run, quite a while ago now. What a sweet natured dog, a Long-haired German Shepherd. His owner told us his name, but I've long since forgotten. I'll call him Bear. Bear sat patiently, looking thirsty. It was a very hot day when I took his photo.
"You can say any foolish thing to a dog and the dog will give you a look that says, "Wow, you're right! I never would've thought of that."
What a sweet doggie. I didn't know there were long-haired German Shepherds. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, he certainly was :) I didn't know about this type either. I was only used to the short haired when I was young. My dad's colleagues used to bring their K-9's home quite often.
DeleteWonderful looking creature Denise.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree Margaret :)
DeleteShe looks so cute!
ReplyDeleteVery cute indeed :)
DeletePeople really love their dogs over here in the UK we've met quite a few happy ones!
ReplyDeleteHaving had dogs all my life, I am happy this is still the case Ellen. Looking forward to your UK photographs very much :)
DeleteBear is beautiful - but I have a HUGE weakness for German Shepherds.
ReplyDeleteI can understand why Sue :) They are magnificent!
DeleteWhat a handsome boy he is.
ReplyDeleteHe certainly is Ann :)
DeleteSweet dog. You, too, have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, agree and you two have a great weekend also :)
DeleteHe's beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteHi Anni, he certainly is :)

Deletewhat a beauty...and those eyes, so pretty!!
ReplyDeleteAren't they? Just like liquid pools :)
DeleteHe is sweet
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, very much so :)
DeleteDogs are cute but high maintenance.
ReplyDeleteYes they are, but once you bond and fall in love with your furry family member, it's a joy :)
DeleteYOU KNOW I LOVE HIM.. and want to hug him. Dogs Make Me Happy
ReplyDeleteI knew you would Sandra :) How is Beau today? I will have to pop over and say hello later.
DeleteYep....my Dakota used to look at me like I was stupid though
ReplyDeleteThat's a great name for a dog Pam :) Wouldn't you love to know what they are thinking? I still think that AI will get a translator for animal speech one day.
DeleteDave Barry was right. Unconditional happiness from our four legged friends never fails. Love this sweet photo of Bear, Denise.

DeleteYes, he was Martha Ellen :) and I couldn't agree with you more. Thank you, so glad you liked his photo.
I have been finding my comments unpublished and this is one of them. It just popped up out of the blue on 10-13-22, so I deleted the original and retyped this with an explanation, even though I did one shortly after I published this post. So sorry if you thought I didn’t answer your comment Martha Ellen. I try to answer everyone. I have been finding lots of unpublished comments but from other blogging friends. So strange!
He's a gorgeous dog and your photo really captures his personality.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanie, I tried hard to capture that :) He was such a sweet dog.
DeleteHe's a grand fellow.
ReplyDeleteHe certainly is :)
DeleteHe is looking up as if he is saying "huh"? Such a sweet looking doggie , Bear is.
ReplyDeleteIsn't he great? :)
DeleteLovely photo of my favourite breed of dog. WE had one for 15 years.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful Diane :) Thank you and for the share also.
DeleteHe DOES kind of look like a bear, doesn't he? This is a great photo, Denise. I'm a dog person myself, and have had dogs all of my life. My favorite one was the dachshund when I was a young girl named Cinnamon. That dog quote is delightful.
ReplyDelete~Sheri
Yes he does Sheri and thank you :) I had dogs my whole life growing up, and for a good part of my married life. Dachshunds are adorable and that's a great name. Glad you enjoyed the dog quote too.
DeleteIt is a beautiful dog...
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is, I fell in love with him on the spot :)
