Description

Hello all!! While out on a walk we found that this Chihuahua puppy was for sale only for 1 dollar . Why a dollar I asked? The person told me if they gave it away maybe it wouldn't be loved - hmmm, a superstitious thing I suppose... The tiny puppy was shivering and looked so scared and my heart went out to her. She sure had a real way of getting ones attention. I thought hard about taking her home, but as we already have a zoo at the house (and knowing Mike would come unglued) I had to say no and hear my girls expected whine for a long while after lol...( I knew if I took her and Mike said no that the kids would even be more heartbroken later ). She was really shaking and all over the place so hyper that I found it very hard to get a decent shot of her -let alone get her to look at me- so was suprised when this one shot turned out. Georgia ( Georgy on here) got one of my most treasured -hanging on the wall- shots with my girls huggging this Chihuahua. I always look at that pic and wondered what became of her. I am told these dogs are very smart at manipulating for attention and know just how to get you where they want you...lol- hehe, I think I am happy with my cocker spaniel who is very easy going like I am!! This image here for me today (another that I have had on the back burner) was more of an exercise of painting the background with the colors of the dog to give it a more portrait look. So hand painted the entire background using clone smudge and soften tools with the mouse today in paint shop... Leaving for Vegas for a while to visit family this week so wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving (for those of you that celebrate it) ...! Real Thankkful for this wonderful site and all of you on here!! Thanks for all your time and comments !! Love to all!! ((( BIG hugs !! ))) ♥ ~ Kimmers ! :O)

Aaaaaah ... I would have taken that puppy home Kimmers. 'Course I'm sure I'd live to regret that decision. Guess I'm just a sucker for those pleading little eyes.

How cute, how sweet ! Your capture of this puppy is simply wonderful in its framing, lighting and sharpness, not to mention the tones of white and brown. Excellent photography, as always :-)

This is so beautiful. I nearly cried when I saw it. I had a chi for 17 years and although she has been gone now for some years I still miss her. Thanks for the lovely picture. It brings back some wonderful memories.
