Ed è in certi sguardi che s’intravede l’infinito.
And it is in certain glances that the infinite is glimpsed.
(Franco Battiato)
Bonzo and Jack were happy for two reasons. They were on a walk and they knew that I had treats in my pocket.

Jack, the black lab on the left, belongs to my family in England. The other Spaniels are highly trained working dogs, but also live as part of the family with their owner.
I see what you spelled out there, Jasper. So Dogs Rules and Hoomans Drools, huh? Very clever. And I'll have you know I only drooled that once when I fell asleep on the couch. Well, this is what you get when you mix a smart dog with the game of Bannanagrams.
Saw a lady walking these dogs and I asked her if she would mind if I 'd take a snap of her large format pets ;-)

Sliders Sunday.
Dog sitting this weekend. I'm watching the dog on the right, Parker and a friend walked by with hers, May Lynn and the two had to check each other out.
As I was doing my ocean side walk one day, in front of me I noticed this cute little Pomeranian dog sticking out of a pouch in a woman's backpack. She was about 20 ft. ahead of me, and since I only had a 40mm mounted on my camera I had to speed up and get quite close to her to get a shot. She sensed me behind her and abruptly turned around to see me bent over about 3ft. behind her taking the shot. She shouted, are you taking a picture of my rear end? Of course I explained to her that it was her dog I was interested in, not her butt, which calmed her down, she then allowed me also to take a closeup portrait of her dog which I posted long ago, if interested you can find it in my Dogs Album.
The light was so pretty yesterday down at the beach. It was a very pleasant walk for the middle of February unlike the day before where it was cold, windy and rainy. I have a video of that walk on my photostream.
I got lots of nice photos but I went with this one because I thought Della looked a little like a wolf and I think wolves are pretty cool.
Ich werde zwar nicht mit den Hunden Gassi gehen, aber ich werde ein paar Tage unterwegs und erst gegen Ende der Woche zurück sein. Ich wünsche allen eine gute Woche :))
I'm not going to walk the dogs, but I will be off for a few days and be back by the end of the week. I wish you a great week ahead :))
Rufus Thomas: Walking The Dog (1964)
Yes, I know about "how cute" and "who can resist?" We had her over a couple of times and she does know us. Even more, she seems to see us as part of her family. In fact, I believe that she regards herself as a "child" belonging to a family of humans. She made it perfectly clear that she has certain expectations in terms of participating in our social life, eating our kind of food - almost asking for equality and fair play. Now my question is, how does evolution work in this case? Did dogs evolve to bond with humans? Did humans develop affinity to dogs? Or, is there a process of mutual co-evolution or even co-assimilation?
