My absolute favorite breed of dog!!! I’ve had three in my lifetime, and each one was a part of the family. This is a true reflection of their beauty both inside and out. Love it! : )

Awesome

Incredibly beautiful – stunning!

Such a handsome dog. The lighting is so beautiful. Your treatment is so gentle. You have brought out the best in this dog. Is it your dog??? If it is…lucky you

Could not ask for a more beautiful picture. Nugget is a good dog to have posed so well for you!

How old is she Jan she has a white muzzle?

What a great capture. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Gorgeous dog!!!!

I know how she feels with the arthritis. It is really miserable. I give my cat some glucosamine or whatever that stuff is for joints helps him tremendously.

ya right, your dog would cower with my dog!! first would look at it goin..hmm, smells like a dog, acts like a dog..but no way in Hell could it be a Dog! lol

Oh Nugget is always a pretty girl! I like the texturized background you added in post processing, it complements her fur really well!

Beautiful Jan, lovely work

Lovely portrait, Jan, well done.

Congratulations! So well deserving! This is just beautiful!

Nugget is a beautiful Golden, and you must have captured her sweet disposition. I doubt that any amount of post processing could simulate such a loving calm appearance. Love the background, too.

What a great photo, what a lovely dog. He must be a delight; his expression shows his temperament. An instant favourite.

Absolutely gorgeous pet portrait. Such a beautiful dog – fantastic framed!!

Superb “pawtrait”
j

perfect portrait!

I love your filtering work

Your going to have to give me your secret

EXCELLENT !!!!!!!

did you put the texture behind and in front and then erase him in between him (like a sandwich)? just curious. :)

that’s why it looks so great mixtures.

I am going to do some of these with texturing and play with some things this summer when I have time off. I do it with pictures but not much with textures. Where do you get your textures? Do you take pictures of your own textures?

Oh, what a beauty…wonderful shot Jan!

this is superb, just had to be an instant fav, the look on this dogs face is just to melt into.

Wonderful:)

beautiful
