AI Thread Summary
A new DigiCam has been acquired, allowing for easy and frequent photography during walks with dogs Ricochet and Meja. A photo taken during one of these walks sparked a discussion about a possible third dog in the image, which turned out to be a wooden fence. The size comparison between Ricochet and Meja led to humorous comments about their relative sizes and breed characteristics. Observations were made about Ricochet's appearance, suggesting he resembles a small Border Collie, with speculation about his breeding. Overall, the conversation highlighted the joy of pet photography and the playful dynamics between the dogs.

I recently got a new DigiCam, it is much smaller and more convenient to use then my old one. I have been taking in everywhere and snapping pics like crazy. Here is one I took while walking Ricochet and Meja today. I am knot sure if the third dog (can you spot it?) is a friend or knot.http://home.comcast.net/~integral50/Ricochet/knotdog.JPG

Is that a dog next to the white dog's rear left leg?

I see several knots - it's a wooden fence... :biggrin:

I think he has a knotty nose.

:smile: That took a while to spot. He seems to be a knotty doggy.
 
Yes, indeed, he is a very knotty dog. Perhaps if I zoom in a bit it will make it a little easier to see.

Y'know, Meja isn't looking all that much smaller than Ricochet. Are you going to have to try again with another dog for your wife to have a dog of a sufficiently small size? :biggrin:

That shot is a bit deceptive, Meja is up on her hind legs, Ricochet is standing flat footed. Here is a shot that shows the difference better.

\frac d {dx} seems pretty happy with Meja, she is a real sweetheart, until Ricochet gets to close to her dog treat; Then she becomes a real b... well a female dog shall we say!

\frac d {dx}, in order to further reduce the size of Ricochet, has pronounced him a Boarder Collie. He really has a lot in common with the breed, I am wondering if his breeders were careful enough... any way his major problem with being a Boarder Collie is that he is small, so now we have a tiny Boarder Collie rather then a Large Papillon.

Women and logic :rolleyes:

Present company excepted o:)

Wow, she really did look a lot bigger while up on hind legs.

:smile: Ricochet does look a lot like a small border collie, except the way he holds his tail. Border collies usually have their tails down, and he seems to hold his up more papillon style. Did the breeder have border collies too? It's entirely possible that there was an "unauthorized liaison" if they had them on the premises, or that one of the parents looked papillon, but somewhere along the way had some border collie mixed in that showed up in Ricochet.

The way he holds his tail and the fact that he is mainly white, separate him from official Boarder Collie. We do not let such minor details intrude into our construct of reality. :smile:
