A photo and a quote: Friday Shoot-out




 I think that I am better than the people who are trying to reform me. 
Goethe

(FYI: This is Eddy, who is spontaneously delivering to me an over due notice from the local library. I owe 70 cents.)



 
Time with my dogs clears my mind, renews my faith, and lets me see the world as it is. My only regret loving dogs as I do, is the misery of their early departure.
Robert G. Wehle

    Love the photos and quotes. The second quote definitely expresses the sorrow of all pet owners!

    Excellent! Let's face it, a relationship between a four-footed animal & their human, is an awesome relationship!

    Ann, That's an overdue notice from the library. Eddy decided to personally deliver it to me, the guilty party.

    That first one with Eddy is just hilarious with the quote!

    I'm sure your dog would agree with you totally. The first picture is a classic. If I saw it as a card in a cardshop, I'd buy it.

    We're trying to figure out what that is in your mouth.

    The piece of paper and the Goethe quote together? Priceless :))

    That first picture had me laughing out loud. The second quotation is exactly why I don't have a dog anymore. Not ready for that too early departure again.

    I agree with Mark Kerry. the first one should be a card. both are fantastic photos.

    Ahh, I love that second quote - and your photo to accompany it. My old dog has been gone for months now and I still miss him every day.
