A portrait of my dog, Ben.
You’ve captured the quality of intuitiveness, focus, understanding, trustwhorthy, loyalty, calmness, strength, gentleness and kindness that we dog-lovers all look for in a working dog. Bravo!
I sure like my dog. With all the training we put into him, we've developed a very high level of communication, which gives him almost human-like qualities. On this day, Ben was sitting obediently on the shore while George fished, but he really wanted to be out fetching fish instead.
Thanks for the compliments, everyone.
PS Ben Clapton, is your name short for Obi wan too?
Thanks, everyone. You all are great!
