Description

Ralph more or less puts up with the attentions of his adoring brother. I suspect the real motive is the hope that Ralph will regurgitate something delicious. Dogs are NOT people although I love them just as much.

You are certainly correct, dogs are not people. No matter how rich or poor you are or how you dress or how pretty or ugly you may be dogs will love you anyway. They will stay by you even when you are sick or depressed. And their shit is always the real thing. Of course, even dogs have their limits. Poor Ralph looks rather uncomfortable. Still, an adorable image.

Aww, poor Ralphie, he looks embarrassed...but how sweet Fritz is! I love animals more than people most of the time.

Excellent capture... Ralph is the model of control and tolerance.. Fritz being friendly can get away with this even on Valentines day. lol

Superb capture of poignancy as its most basic in this image of Fritz cozing up to the stoic and tolerant Ralphie, Andrea. Hope you had a glorious Valentine's Day.

I suspect there are remnants of flavor remaining near his mouth from his last meal. I always find these reflective eyes degrade the photo, have you tried just replacing the entire bright area with just black?

Both photoshop and paint shop pro as well most other programs have a red eye fixer, much better then replacing with just black. A little patience is required. on occaision I've found it easier to make my own eye. I agree with you, dogs are NOT humans, but sometimes I think they may be gods, grins. Where else can you get unconditional love like they give us? Such a wonderful picture of patience .. I'd be smacking someone across the snoot if they did that to me, LOL! Fritz and Ralphie are such great companions ..
