Shadow Contest/SMASh: Little Lion

My entry for the Shadow Contest/SMASh - Round 190 hosted by Melinda @melinda010100. You can find more information ๐Ÿ‘‰ Here.

This is a shadow of a cute little dog I met on the Confederation Trail.

The trail was originally a railway bed but now groomed and widened to make a great walking trail.

Many people bring their dogs along for an outing. The dogs are leased and I can tell they are happy to be on the trail and wait patiently while their walkers chat with others.

The dogโ€™s slave walker told me the little dog is a Shih Tzu. Itโ€™s means little lion but he said the little lion is not fierce but very affectionate and a great companion.

The slave walker was in a talkative mood and told me his dog master, the little lion, was thirteen years old now and he hoped to have many more years with him.

The little lion was in good health except for having to have some teeth extracted. Slave walker said it was expensive to have the troublesome teeth removed along with an impacted tooth that caused problems.

Good to see human slave has taken the little guy out for a walk, Shih Tzu is a little small in stature for me personally, does have a long legacy to live up to.

More than made up for all in great shadow from this chatty little chap Jo.

Hi Joan. One of these dogs would make a good companion for your dog. A friend has one of these little dogs, it doesnโ€™t shed hair and it is a great little lap dog. She also has a black lab and the two dogs get along famously.๐ŸŒธ

My guy loves his tribe, has one good friend to run with, other than that he enjoys relaxing between walks all day long.

Small dogs are fun, excellent company for many, always alert you to anyone at a door.

I like the expression "slave walker" ๐Ÿ˜ the little dog looks cute though and it's shadow much bigger as if it was from another dog ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hi Hannes. I think we do get much enjoyment from our pets but they are the masters. Red lets me know when he wants attention, food or the window opened..sort of demanding little tyke.๐Ÿ˜€

I hope work is not too demanding and you are enjoying some nice Autumn weather. It's been cool here at night but nice during the day.๐Ÿค—โ˜€๏ธ

Greatly appreciate the reblog and generous goodies my friend.๐ŸŒบ

Good morning Jo,

yes, you are completely right, we might believe we are the masters, but in the end we do what our pets want us to do ๐Ÿ˜‚

It's quite warm here, even during the night, but I think next week it's going to get colder and less sunshine. That would be typical because I am off work next week ๐Ÿคฃ

I hope you're having a great Thor's Day, dear Jo ๐Ÿค—๐ŸŒž

Lovely shadows of the dog master. The first photo of the edits is awesome. Love that so much. One thing nice about being a shadow hunter is how it changes us to see so many things in a different and interesting light. This being an example. A simple walk that turns out to be a great photoshoot. SMAShing time is all the time!!!

Good luck with your entry. All the best to you.
