Description
He is your friend, your comrade, your defender, your dog.
You are his life, his love, his leader.
He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart.
You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.
-Unknown
The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world...
the one that never deserts him,
the one that never proves ungrateful
or treacherous,
is his dog.
-Senator George Graham Vest

Ten Favors a Dog Asks From a Man:
1- My life lasts between ten to fifteen years. Every separation from
you is a hardship for me. Think about this before you decide whether
or not to take me.
2- Give me time to understand what you are asking from me.
3- Instill confidence in me - I thrive on it.
4- Do not be angry with me for a long time and do
not lock me up for punishment. You have your work, your pleasure, your joy - I have only
you.
5- Talk often to me. Even if I do not understand you completely, I do understand the tone of your voice when you talk to me.
6- Know that, no matter how I am being treated, I
shall never forget it...
7- Keep in mind, before you hit me , that my jaws
could crush the knuckles of your hand with ease... but that I do not make use of them.
8- Before you scold me when working with me, consider: perhaps I am uncomfortable from digesting my last meal; perhaps I was exposed to the sun too long; or perhaps I have a wornout
heart.
9- Take care of me when I am old....you too, are going to be old one day.
10- Be with me when my going gets rough
...Everything is easier for me, when you are beside me.

Nice shot and postwork...recently lost my truest friend to cancer and so my heart can never be broken again,beyond what it is!
janedj
What a little cutie!!!!
tabala
You are so right- our "plushy smooch-torpedo" came into our family last summer. The past owner had a bad accident and I just asked her if she want to go with me. And I never want to miss her any more. She completely turned around our life :) A great dedi to great friends at all!
danob
Lovely and sentiments few dog owners will argue with...
Hendesse
What a beautiful portrait. Lovely and very expressive!!
MrsLubner
A lovely shot with great warmth, charm, character and emotion. The words with it are probably too contrite and heart-tugging for my taste but the message (the bottom line...) is a good one. Stellar.
Margana
I don't find the words 'contrite', or there wouldn't be as many abused and unappreciated animals as there are. I just think they give us so very much...and ask so very little in return...
TwoPynts
Grrrrrreeat doggie portrait -- it pops right out of the monitor. They do give us so much...
MaydaMason

Wow! I like this work a lot. Looks like he is looking out of the window. Very well captured a wonderfull color of his coat in a sunshine. I have 2 doggies I love them dearly, we are good pals. Love the lines too.
tommorules
Can feel his wet nose from here!! Great sentiments from Mr or Mrs Unknown. If only we dog's ruled the world... Doggy Cold War? Never happen. Doggy Fatwah? Never happen. Suicide doggy (ooer)? You want me to do what?!!! The odd bit of collateral damage, maybe. Cats, on the other hand... armegeddon in under 2 weeks...............

Margana, your 3D photos just floor me, they are all fantastic! And this one just drooled one my desk, dang it!!!!
goodoleboy
Beautiful POV, lighting effects and clarity in this magnificent capture of this magnificent doggie, possibly a chocolate labrador. Nothing like the expression displayed in those loving and trusting eyes. I think God really goofed in limiting a dog's lifespan to a mere ten to fifteen years.
odie
AWwwww, Marlene. That gets me right in the soft spot!! Excellent shot and treatment. :0)
jocko500
