Japanese Chin
Here's a breed you don't often see - a Japanese Chin. It's a type of toy spaniel and was well-known to the Japanese nobility. It's also known for have a 'strabismus' of the eye. And no, I didn't know what that meant either! Apparently it means it has a squint! I met this little cutie in Menton.

Table Dog?
This Jack Russell looks as if he's standing on a table but in fact he is standing on a wall alongside this restaurant in Place du Cap, Menton. Dogs are part of life in France and if you go to a restaurant, then of course, your dog can go too. I approve!
