Oh what beautiful ears you have! 

Here's Looking at you ...

Love the direct look of this wire-haired dachshund in Aix-en-Provence.

Allez les Bleus!

I guess this little guy must be a France supporter. Allez les Bleus!

Poodle pleasure

A little old lady poodle, whose only wish in life is to please her owner.

Feisty

This is a feisty Jack Russell terrier I photographed in Menton in 2011. I don't know his name. Perhaps he was trying to tell me at the time and I wasn't listening ...

L'amour

L'amour ...he's a Cane Corso Italiano.

Baïka and Antoine

We met Baïka a couple of days ago - at the time,  looking rather scare. Here she has settled with her gentle owner, Antoine.  They live in Gorbio.   The rapport between these two is lovely to see.  Lucky dog, lucky owner.

Baïka

Baïka is one and a half and lives in Gorbio.  A beautiful gentle dog who really didn't want to look at the camera.  Come back tomorrow and you'll see she did eventually settle thanks to her owner.

Fiston

Fiston is the Croc'antine dog.  Croc'antine is a small restaurant in Menton, opposite the Cocteau Musuem, where you'll eat lovely freshly food, cooked and served by Fiston's charming owners.  I don't think dog biscuits are on the menu though ...

L'amour

English Setter love ...

Muriel, Nina and Emma

How to get a dog and a child together ... hide behind them!  Here (although you don't see her!) is Muriel in Gorbio village, with her little Yorkie, Nina - and Emma who thinks it's all the best fun.

Hair Colour

Ever noticed how people choose dogs with the same colour hair? 

Proud Mama

Proud Mama with her Llasa Apso ready to go into the showring in Monaco.

Bulldogs reign!

Who doesn't love a Bulldog! 

L'amour

L'amour at the Monaco Dog Show.

Vegas

Just got this shot in time as a split second later, Vegas got too close and I got a lick of love.  Vegas, a 4 month old Staffordshire Bull Terrier, was in on the Croisette in Cannes enjoying the passing parade for the Film Festival -  film stars and wannabe film stars.

Cannes Film Festival

It's not just pretty girls at the Cannes Film Festival - beagles go too!

Coffee table bed ...

This was once my coffee table ... 

Hoping ...

Looks like someone is hopeful ... woof!

Up!

Showing off her tricks!

Chihuahuas with cigarette

Hands full!

Joy

'Joy' on the beach at Menton.  She's 4 years old and lives in Switzerland.

Dogs galore

Not content with six Shelties, this lady has dogs on her handbag - and what's she got painted on her fingernails? Perhaps dog faces ... 

Tofu

Tofu, an adorable toy poodle was with her owners at the Beausejour restaurant in Gorbio yesterday.  I thought she was a puppy - but, no, she is three years old and lives in Nice.  So cute.

Handbag chic

Matching handbag ...

...it's for you

Monaco Dog Show

...it's for you.'

Pippi Longstocking

Monaco Dog Show - Pippi Longstocking perhaps ... ?

Giving the eye ...

Here's looking at you, kid.  A Bearded Collie is giving the eye at the Monaco Dog Show.  Prior to going into the ring, her whiskers are tied in rubber bands so that she can drink without the fur getting wet.

Red and Black

Accessorized in red at yesterday's Monaco Dog Show. The dog pulling her along is a Giant Schnauzer.

Tokyo

A chihuahua puppy from Ventimiglia, Italy.  She's called Tokyo and is giving a 'don't mess with me' look!

Papillon?

Maybe a Papillon or a Papillon mix.  Cute anyway ...

Double Irish

Two gorgeous Irish Wolfhounds in my garden.  I took this photo in 2009 with the camera before the camera before the camera before .... so there's not a lot of definition but aren't they gorgeoous creatures!

Norfolk terriers

How cute are these two!  They are Norfolk Terriers. 

There are identical to a Norwich terrier except the Norwich has prick ears.  A good way of remembering the difference is to think of the spire of Norwich cathedral and then the 'up' ears of the Norwich terrier.

Prickle

Typical Jack Russell pose of waiting to pounce!  But in this case, Prickle will have no luck as the bantams are protected by wire-netting. Prickle (she's 15 years young) - and the bantams - live in the beautiful Clos du Peyronnet in Menton.

Pink Ribbon Chihuahua

This long-haired chihuahua is walking in Monaco's 'Pink Ribbon' parade in aid of breast cancer awareness.

Tea for two ...

Table for two ...

Attack Dog

An 'attack' dog is grabbed by his handler after stopping a 'baddie' and downing him - part of a display at Monaco's dog show last year.
