Wrongway
This is our baby Wrongway he is 5 yrs old and acts like a human, he likes rawhide bones and cookies thats why I gave him the nick name Cookie Dog
Its been asked how he got the name Wrongway so here is the story:
The people that lived next door had their female giving birth and was having trouble, my wife is an RN so she went over and helped, he was the first to come out and as soon as he came out he turned around and tried to go back up into his mother, so my wife gave him the name Wrongway and at that moment fell in love with him. They gave him to us for helping their female give birth and saving her.

Larry, a beautiful portrait of your friend and companion. His eyes are so expressive and you have caught that expression vividly. He surely looks well loved and your portrait of him gives him an air of dignity, affection, and love. Wonderful!

Awwwwww! What a gorgeous dog, awesome photo, and beautiful and funny story all at the same time. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry! Oops! I think I did both! Either I laughed so hard that I cried, or I cried so hard that I laughed. Either way, I had to go to the bathroom to get over it. Priceless.
