When this picture was taken, Rose (11) and her mom had recently arrived from the east coast. Rose spent the entire plane ride sitting quietly in her mom’s lap. Patient dog!
Dalmatians all have a very intense and slightly grumpy cast to them.
I think part of it is the fact that they often have black spots around their eyes.
Part of it is that they just don’t often have the goofy-happy-face that so many other breeds seem to have. Although I think this is rather a soulful expression, absent the mascara.
What a lovely (and well behaved) dog and a wonderful relationship – love this!
Aren’t they sweet?
Haven’t seen you comment in a month or so… glad to see you back!
I remain a big fan of your blog – just a bit overwhelmed with things lately. At least I know I can get in a giggle and smile with your dog pics. Thank you!
