miniature dachshund
this is Pluto, my puppy..
even though he is almost TEN.. i still call him my puppy because he’s the tiniest thing ever, weighing less than 10 pounds!
his mama came all the way from poland.. and when he’s not hangin with her.. he’s either scavenging around outside or being a lap dog..
i love him more than anything =)
This photo was taken at the beggining of summer ‘08.. i was outside with my d80 and 70-300 g lens while they were running around the yard as per usual.. so i snapped a few pics.
miniature dachshund belongs to the following groups:

Adorable, I grew up with Dachsunds and love them. They have such a great temperament and this image captures that essence. Congrats on the feature!

The perspective is spot on. I’m rummaging in my pockets for treats!

Hey there, I have a favor to ask! Since you won the Open Apeture challenge on Photogrpahy 101, I was thinking about using this image on the button I am making to create easy access to examples of photography techniques. I just need your permission to snag this work off of RB and use it on the button. Is that ok with you?
PS You will also be asked, when we are ready to do it, to tag this photo with a group tag representing Open Aperture. This just means you have a good example here and we want to include it in our library of excellent works to exhibit photography techniques.
