Oh, no, I used “was” because he is not my dog. I saw him at a local fair. Didn’t mean to confuse. I’m assuming this beauty is still smiling away 🙂 But, like you, I’ve lost a few myself – so very hard.

Thanks, Jaime! He was a beautiful dog in color, but the background distracted the eye and I thought a monochrome approach would help to isolate his beautiful face. Glad you liked the choice!
He really did I look like he was smiling – just made my heart melt when I saw him. So glad you liked the picture, Ritva. Thanks for your lovely comment!
