Lancelot

Normally I feature a close-up of a dog as the main photograph but on this occasion I couldn't resist Lancelot (Sir Lancelot I believe) doing what he loves best...exploring.

I met 2 year old Lancelot at a friend's house in Sainte Agnès, a hill village above Menton - in fact Sainte Agnès is the highest village in Europe with a view of the sea and that is some view! For anyone interested, the village is currently being featured on Menton Daily Photo where the village recently celebrated the Fête de Lavande.

Lancelot who was bred in Italy lives in Menton with his Irish owner. He's a Jack Russell although I feel he might have just a touch of Staffie in him. A lovely little dog. (click to enlarge his photo)

  1. Oh Jilly, you live in the most beautiful place on earth! Not that far from Paris either!!!! Oh, I hate you! Joking , you know that!

    I can see why you wanted to add the background - so green and there he is off on a terrier adventure - only terriers know how to "adventure" too!!! LOL

  4. Adorable! I love Jack Russells. I agree he does look a big Staffordshire-esque.

  5. I do love your close up shots but I must say, your "action" shot is the best ever! I love seeing dogs having adventures x
