Who would have guessed the little super dog would put the run on the big one?!

Too cute :)
Nice to see another rotti lover!

[drisley]

I absolutely love big dogs. I wish I had room to own one.
Rottis are just about the friendliest dogs you can imagine.
Although this picture looks like she's going for the jugular, Coco is actually smothering the lady with smooches :)

LOL The human helps make the scene look like Coco is ferocious!

Hope ITs ok I post my rotties for you.

I know its not really a good picture, but it shows some beautiful rottis :)

[drisley]

Yup, beautiful dogs! I like the guy on the right the best :)
I notice in another thread that you mention that one of your rottis came from an abused owner.
Well, the little white dog above has the same history. Because of that, Mandy is a little scared of people. However, she is totally friendly (and very photogenic).

Here is my last picture of Coco, blinded by the sun :)

I enjoyed this series very much. The photos really translate what hapenned and it is a priceless moment.
Also those are some nice looking dogs you have there.

[stoneylonesome]

Beautiful shots, beautiful dogs one and all. Rottis are great, they just get a bad rap now and than.

[HJMinard]

Wonderful shots, Dris ... and beautiful dogs. Your images, more than most on this site, just jump off the screen. You're certainly causing me to lust after some of those primes!

[drisley]

Thanks for your replies :)
One thing I forgot to mention about Coco... she rarely barks. Quiet dogs are so nice.
HJM, thanks for the great compliment! That is so nice!
Btw, you have a prime on your list that I am currently lusting after.... the 400F5.6L.

I loved your sequence. Isn't it funny how the "mouthy" little guys can make the big ones run....?

[Mills]

Gotta love all puppies! Great shots all.

[Steve Parr]

I absolutely love big dogs.

General rule of thumb from a guy who grew up with Great Danes:

If a dog doesn't come up to your knee, it's a cat...

Nice shots Drisley!! If you like large dogs, you'll love my 10 year-old Old English Sheepdog (Shaggy DA) Buddy.............looks much larger with all her hair; tiny when I gt her clipped in the spring!!

[drisley]

Wow, nice dog!
Nice picture too!

[Jacque1263]

Wonderful series of shots! thanks for sharing.

[schmoelzel]

Drisley.......which lens? (or need I ask?? :) )

[tommykjensen]

Nice photos (all of them).

Some years ago my parents dachshund got a little annoyed with my sisters big Newfoundlander so he bit him in the nose.

Very brave of a little dog like this:

Tommy: that is one mean-looking dachshund!!! The reflection in the eyes make it look particularly scarey!!
