Doppler is my favorite subject for photography. The camera came out right before I left for work. She was walking around carrying the Busy Bone. It was as if she had a few pounds of cocaine taped to her body!
She is tentative with the bone in her mouth. Can a dog be nervous? She was in nervous contemplation. She also looked a little like Triumph, the insult comic dog, with the bone sticking out like a cigar.
Why doesn’t she eat the bone? That’s what it’s for. It’s not supposed to be a plaything.
Sometimes she forgets where it’s hidden.
These two shots were taken with a Sigma 10-20mm lens. I used a very high ISO which means no external light was needed.
OK, that dog is WAY too cute for words! What’s with the pitiful look in the first picture? “Daddy, please stay home and play with me.” One of my cats, Peaches, used to greet us at the top of the stairs when we came home. We couldn’t get past her till we petted and kissed her. Her brother, Stripes, used to look for us out the window. And the one time we were away for a few days (a relative came and fed and cared for them), I swear, they watched our every move for a month!
Sure a dog can be nervous. That bone is her treasure and she wants to keep it safe – even if she sometimes forgets where she hid it. My Indy lost his ball once; took us a couple of weeks to find it and when we did, oh, he was soooo happy to have it back. Some of their hiding places can be pretty funny.
Geoff, you always get such great shots of Doppler. I have such a difficult time with my Lhasa Bailey because as soon as I click, she moves , which leaves me with a blurry photo of fur. Any suggestions???
Geoff, there’s no such thing as a “less than perfect picture” of Doppler!! Absolutely precious!!
I love the second shot… for me to poop on!
Dontcha wanna just drop everything and go over and smooch her??I have a cocker spaniel, also cute, and I want to snuggle him all lthe time!
Oh my goodness-she is so adorable-thanks for the pictures-I look forward to seeing them when you post!!
She reminds me of the dog in the commercial that has nightmares over possibly losing his bone. That dog of your is precious, Geoff. What a joy to have in your life!
