Dogs


One thing that always makes me stop wherever I am is dogs. If I see a dog, I ask the owner if I can pat he/she. This one was outside one of the local hotels now a backpackers where minor construction work was being done inside. Edited to add: No I didn't pat this dog, he looked kind of growly so we just told him he was a cute boy

Linking up with Mosaic Monday and Ruby Tuesday.

Nice street capture, the dog seems to be losing his patience.

I have instilled in the grandchildren the need to always ask the owner's permission before approaching a dog.

Being a dog person, dogs know and want to say Hi to Pirate!
We still ask though.

I love dogs but don't pet those I don't know.

I steer clear of patting strange dogs.

Builder's dogs are often chosen to look growly to protect tools around the site and on the truck.

I avoid petting unfamiliar dogs, but I can never resist petting cats!

Hugs and blessings, Amy

With some dogs I can hardly resist and hope that the owner will allow me to pet the dog. With some dogs I don't feel like stroking... (It's like with people, sometimes more sympathy, sometimes less...)

All the best from Austria - have a good time!
