The watchdog

Our corner grocer with his dog, Roxie, who was a good watchdog with all the customers. The owner, however, said she was a “chicken.” I kept trying to get a picture of her among the bananas, but she wouldn't pose, so finally he grabbed her, and I got this.

The dog really does have a pudgy tummy - nice having a grocer for an owner :) Such a lovely, warm shot - too bad she's "chicken" - nice to have a dog that would fend off potential thieves ! V

More likely to melt the heart of any bad guy than to have to attack!

as a watchdog Roxie seems a bit short of fierce...

A little sweetie that brings a smile to those who encounters her.

A well-fed chicken! Love this moment captured. I just finished watching an HBO documentary about the Scottish photographer, Harry Benson, and was highly motivated to do more people photography...ESPECIALLY in black and white which I believe has more impact.

Roxie is shy, not a "chicken". :-)
