Time for a portrait update on a favorite dog that I know. As seen at the Syracuse International Horse Show. For the group: "Looking close... on Friday!" theme "eyes (selective colour)".

Texture: Lenabem-Anna #173.

Looking back at some older photos, I came across this one of Bandit and Taiga. Taiga was just a pup and didn't even have all her floof yet.

Jurmo, Finland.

These two make great companions when out getting a few steps in. The hikes are lovely with the trees starting to change colour, and lots of squirrels about to keep the dogs entertained.

Taiga is a year old now and full grown. She is a tiny girl, but big in spirit and personality. All my dogs (and now my daughter's dog) have silly nick names I have given them, hers is Tiggy Moo Shoo. I also call her my Grandsy Fluff. She doesn't seem to mind.

Taiga was enjoying her downtown walk. I was enjoying the warmer weather and beautiful blossoming trees. She is always happy to pose!

...Or so Jasper would have you believe. I processed this with a blue hue to convey his blue mood. But in reality, looks like this one are all part of the game to keep the humans engaged.
