Thank you Vicki. Like most of us I suppose, I take a number of shots from which I can select the best of the lot. This was one of those cases.

What a beauty Bob; all the hunt has been bred out of this one I'm sure - couldn't you just shudder to imagine that coat full of burrs - yikes. Lovely job my friend.

Thanks Jim. Actually, yes, I can imagine the coat full of burrs ....... like I used to remove from my dog when we went traipsing along forest paths. But with him, it was washing the muck and mud out of his coat after he went wading into the swamp. Not fun at the time, but as I look back on it, it was well worth a day in the outdoors together.

Absolutely my friend; every time I go to the property, I'm taking my granddaughters Puggle with me and she is much more beagle than pug and followers her nose where ever it leads her mostly into trouble as you can imagine. But as you said, a day walking around with a good pal can't be dismissed out of hand for sure.
