MY dog

[cayenne]

Oh wow!! What a cute little fellow!!
I'm not familiar with the breed, so very interesting and seeing him grow up...so, please keep "spamming" this thread with pics!!

I really liked the one where it looks like he dropped a leaf in mid stride!!

Thanks all for your comments and appreciation!
He is still quite a handful, exploring his new home / environment - we need to give him the positive reinforcement to continue doing that while not eating our furniture

The breed originally comes from North America - Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever - gives away where his roots are
He will grow to be a bit smaller than a Golden Retriever, but remain active to an older age.

Wiebe!
It is really very cute puppy!!! Now you have to train it how to take photos of birds (or at least not to get in your way when you are taking photos of birds)!

 

[Nat_WA]

He is already trying to lure the ducks (even if they are stone )

Not sure if the ducks would fall for his charm though...

Nat_WA, you’re in love with the little fellow, no doubt. He is very cute and served you well for these very good photos. The guy in this photo is my dog, a 2 years old pekingese called Zape.

 

[Nat_WA]

@JuanMa - Those Pekingese are brave little dogs! When I was young our neighbours had one, always very nice and cuddly with me and neigbour-friend but ferocious against a big german sheppard that invaded her personal space
I like his colouration

Nat_WA - Thank you, mine is a male always ready for fun, he welcomes all who come in. Enjoy time with yours.

Very cute dog, I love the second picture where he is hiding and lookng at you. I have noticed the photos are very sharp with your 7D2, I can’t get that sharp with mine. I have a 5D mark IV now and no problems.

Thanks for the compliment ...
The 7D mkII is an excellent crop camera, but the AF system settings are complex and can be a bit tricky. If setup correctly the camera can take amazing pictures in the right hands (i.e. not mine ) although FF camera's like the 5DSR, 5D mkIV etc. will always have an edge in sharpness.

Another week, another set of pictures
First time visiting a nearby small forest with fens (almost running dry - we haven't had a significant amount of rain since June)

Camouflage...


What... water? Do I like this ?

Nah... I'm going to rest a bit, get a bit of sand and mud on my wet paws and fur


Again all with 7D2 + 70-200 f/2.8L

So cute. Very nice pictures, I especially like the first one.

 

[Nat_WA]

Thanks all for kind words and likes!

[Nat_WA]

At (almost) 3 months of age - he starts pretending to be a grown up dog
... until something or other triggers another puppy-race

Next time I'll have to increase shutter speed - although he is in focal plane, there is quite a lot of motion blur in his head
and again, 7D2 with 70-200 f/2.8L at f/4.0 - 1/500 s (in the shade of the trees ISO pushed up to around 1600)
