The View From The Other End
While Cindy was taking photos of Trooper and the Poodle sisters roughhousing on the Widget's House porch last week, she also managed to get this interesting shot of blind-and-deaf Blanca standing completely on top of blind Priscilla. You can see that blind Molly is still playing with Trooper, while Priscilla apparently is trying to understand how she ended up coming out backwards underneath the towering Dane.
I thought about sending this photo to the National Enquirer so they could run it with the headline, "Dog Mystery! Great Dane gives birth to Poodle!"
Actually, it's not at all unusual to see Blanca standing on top of the other dogs, even good-sized ones like these standard Poodles. There's a lot of room underneath that frame of hers!
That is hilarious.

I did not realize Trooper was such a ladies man. He really seems to like those poodle sisters. Love the great Dane too!

I simply adore Blanca. Not only is she gorgeous, but she is a Great Dane, and I've always had a soft spot for that noble breed. This is such a funny shot. I love the way Priscilla seems to ask, "What the heck?!"

Blanca is just showing that she's a true Great Dane...mine is always standing/sitting/lying on his golden retriever sister...

Such happy pups!! Do they ever get into scraps with one another? My six-pack have their moments when they pick and pick at each other until a dog fight starts. That's when I use the "water bottle treatment". Most time I just have to pick the bottle up and let them see it and they will stop. And it's the small ones that pick on poor 75 pound Pearl!

Hi Steve - how's Shep, the Afghan dog doing in his new surroundings? This picture made me think of how wonderful it would be to see him out playing and oh so free!!

I LOVE Blanca's ears! They reflect her personality so much!
