Morgan & Simon at HITS





I believe Simon is a Houdini Llewellen Setter. Morgan told us he also works as a therapy dog.

Is Simon driving the golf cart? I can see the steering wheel in one shot, and it looks like he is.

A therapy dog? Dogs themselves are therapy, they keep ya runnin', therefore keep ya young! And he's definitely a good lookin feller!

I'm a sucker for dog photos - what a gorgeous puppy. His tongue is very pink.
Love the horse shots below, too. Never a dull moment in Ocala.

What a beautiful dog. Interesting, I showed the photos to Krise and tried to get her to guess the breed. (She knows more dog breeds by name than anyone I know.) She wasn't familiar with this one, even after I read the name.

Splendid canine photos. The colours are wonderfully clear and bright, too.









splendid

The dog, the best friend of the human. This is an excellent picture-proof.

Lovely images, a great dog in good company.

What a handsome dog! Looks like he's literally ready to roll.

He is truly one magnificent animal. I am surprised at his collar which can be pulled and pinches the daylights out of his neck.

He has a regular collar on so the pinch collar she must use just in case he gets an urge to take off in public.

Is there anything cuter than a big, floppy jowled dog? Dang, I miss my Mollie.

Lois said...

That is a beautiful dog! Looks like he is well taken care of too.

Halcyon said...

They seem to be good friends.

Louis la Vache said...

He looks like he's a happy hound! No wonder he's found a calling as a therapy dog!

Rose said...

Oh, my, he is a beauty! I bet his coat was silky and smooth.

Judy said...

Simon is handsome!

Trillian said...

He seems to really like being photographed...nice photos!

cieldequimper said...

Is it a magician dog?
Very nice "cart portraits"!

Chuck Pefley said...

Jacob, I'm sure you're right with your ID of Houdini Llewellen Setter ... Because I had no idea that specific breed existed, I put him visually into the springer spaniel family. But ... I am no authority and that's a fact -:)

PJ said...

Awwww, they're a pair! Are they related to you? They're both good lookin' so I'm sure they are.

Nice portraits of a fine smiling dog!
I had to look it up, but it's true, someone has created (or re-created) the Llewellin Setter from the English Setter. Houdini is the kennel name.
