I kind of like it because I feel that he is so loyal to us and us only :) but I am glad that as soon as he warms up to someone he would be quick to crawl into their lap! It also makes it easier to take him to the off leash dog park because he is much more interested in us and his ball then other people or their dogs.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13351917238165900485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-16099612496134683892011-02-25T15:10:17.565-06:002011-02-25T15:10:17.565-06:00IT IS GREAT THAT THEY ARE NICE DOGS, EVEN IF MR B ...IT IS GREAT THAT THEY ARE NICE DOGS, EVEN IF MR B IS MORE REFIND.<br />JOHN LOVES TO SEE ALL OF THE BACK ENDS WAGING IT SHOWS HAPPY DOGS.<br />PIP PINCHES ALL TOYS ONE DAY HE WILL TAKE ONE AND ALL HELL WILL START.Bobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06529808857123786124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-80417970447803338122011-02-25T13:54:07.147-06:002011-02-25T13:54:07.147-06:00Such great photos!

You get these great airy, light indoor shots, with no "demonic dog eye" glare. <br /><br />Love love love those first two pics, showing their eyes. Ms. M's eyes have always caught my attention - they are so huge and round and expressive. I wish I could meet her. Is she more dominant, and Mr. B less so? My theory about camera shyness is that the dogs with more submissive personalities tend to view it as a threat. Like a big eye staring at them. A submissive dog won't look another dog in the eye. As the photographer for the local rescue group, I see this a lot, where it appears the dog I'm photographing feels socially obliged to look away from my camera, or just glance sideways at it. Needless to say, this makes the photography more challenging! :)Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08734831781770841734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-12080528571597053762011-02-25T12:51:15.395-06:002011-02-25T12:51:15.395-06:00I see you are working with your new camera- lookin...I see you are working with your new camera- looking good! :)Shauna (Fido and Wino)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06214298484954303975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-39124357409843577882011-02-25T12:05:45.862-06:002011-02-25T12:05:45.862-06:00i hate to go off topic here, but don't think i...i hate to go off topic here, but don't think i didn't notice these available light, short DoF photos from your new camera! they look great!<br />let's talk processing sometime soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-34769484275835221672011-02-25T11:40:46.226-06:002011-02-25T11:40:46.226-06:00Hello there guys!

Mom always says I'm more interested in the "big picture" than to pay specific attention to one person. It often puts people off and makes them think I'm not a friendly dog - which is so far from the truth... but, no offense to the person petting me, but there might be something better going on somewhere else!<br />-CorbinCorbinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17099985133525531865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-19199737361304177512011-02-25T10:16:46.588-06:002011-02-25T10:16:46.588-06:00Not every doggie is meant to be a media hound like...Not every doggie is meant to be a media hound like Miss M and Me!!

Zeus is anti camera- I h...awww! love the pictures! <br />Zeus is anti camera- I have taken a TON of photos of him and he'll look at me then at the last second he'll shift his eyes away - so annoying!<br />he's funny about walks and meeting people/dogs. If it's just a person walking by he could not care lesss. But if someone's walking a dog, then he HAS to greet the dog (he cries if we don't say Hi) but as soon as he smells the other dog he's lost interest and then he only wnats to meet the human. He doesn't jump or do tricks or anything- he just wnats to sniff and then move on. It's actually kind of annoying because we'll meet other dogs, then I'll talk to their owner- in the meantime Zeus is standing next to me compeltely aloof, no longer interested in the dog or the person. <br />I'm curious - how do you guys 'divide' the chores for the pooches? does one wind up doing more/less? I'm always wondering how other couples do it all.REDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06883892688598936238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513996817497959054.post-76392711239729709822011-02-25T09:03:30.460-06:002011-02-25T09:03:30.460-06:00Great work capturing the smiles and frowns in equa...Great work capturing the smiles and frowns in equal measure!

If he is sitting in front of you, he won't look you in the face - same with the camera - I've taken hundreds of shots of him close up and maybe 5 turn out well because he just won't look at the camera. He is a very stoic, but sensitive dog, unless he gets excited and then he can't sit still and smiles with all his teeth!
