Playful Puppy Portrait

I am still feeling crappy but with the forecast rain I forced myself to walk just a little bit this morning to fend off the cabin fever.

I passed a man with a beautiful little pup, she is 15 weeks old and was content just to lie and play with the remnants of her ball as we chatted for a moment.  I asked if he would mind if I took a photograph of her, I always ask permission as so many dogs are being stolen to order these days.  He was happy for me to do so as long as if he liked it I would let him have a copy.

I think he liked it and I know I do but it reminds me just how much I miss having dogs...
