    We have several dogs that look very like their owners in my neighbourhood. Or possibly owners that look like their dogs...

    There's the pug, Gustl, whose owner looks just like him - no neck, little squashed in nose, slightly piggy eyes. He's even got the ashthmatic wheeze down, and the rather stiff-shouldered walk! Then there's the leggy, long-haired blonde with Sunny the Afghan hound, and I will leave the description of the owners of the big mastiff that lives down the road to your imagination. Suffice to say, they are dead ringers for their dog... ;)

    So - my son told me that I'd clearly picked a dog that matched me. How nice, I naively thought, he means pretty, petite, intelligent, kind... But no - in his words: 'Small yet chunky, blonde, high-energy, long nose'. Little blighter... ::)

    David has won 1st prize in our village fete dog show in the category "dog that looks most like its owner" 3 years running with Hattie who is a largish girl with a black/grey curly coat, David has black/greying shoulder length wavey hair - not sure if that's an insult to Hattie!! ;D It makes everyone laugh every year - bless!!!

    Lovely picture Karen, you both look pretty as a picture.

    Very funny post... Thank you Helen :D
