I'm new to the forum and primarily an illustrator, but I've always had a love and fascination with photography over the years. I've built and left three (analog) darkrooms in my time and am now completely absorbed with digital... Hope to have some fun here...

I think that's a Hairless Chinese Crested (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_crested). Odd, but strangely cute dogs. Sorry to hear about Pepper... what a lovely dog...

Also, welcome to the forums to Philip AND bugster! (two birds, one post, score!)
