..... is a Golden Retriever. One
of the most lovable dogs one could ever wish to meet. He has been well trained by his owners Brad &
Heather A, who live in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria.
Indy is a frequent visitor to our home - and
is always most welcome.
He is only now just in his 3rd year.
A wonderful companion dog, he is very obedient and well mannered.
But - he wasn't always that way. Which
is understandable. When just growing out of puppy-hood - he had much to learn.
Below are 3 photographs I was lucky enough to
capture at the time of the (now well known) 'event' which took place in our lounge / dining room.
*** It was priceless

"And just what do YOU fink you are doin'
up there Mr. Felix ?"
" Ok - if YOU can do it, so can I.
I just gotta figure out how ?
Now let's see - four feet on a
chair and then
two feet up and .... dis isn't easy."
" I'm up ... but there's
nuffinhere Mr. Felix ? I can't find any tucker or toys
and it's VERY high off the floor" ... "not sure I shoulda tried this trick "
>°~°<
"Umm - would someone tell me pleeze - how do I
get down offa this thing ?"
☺
Footnote from the photographer !!
The first photograph has not been touched in any way, except to be cropped.
The 2nd and 3rd photographs had to have a few little
enhancements and additions here and there, but are essentially the original
photographs.
The seemingly different colourings / hues are due to the fact that I was
trying to use different lighting that was available - while allowing this little performance to continue !
I took quite a few more snaps at the time, also trying a couple of different camera settings, which was a rush job for
obvious reasons. These were the best of the lot.
All photographs have also been reduced in size from the
originals.
A couple of YouTube video treats
for your enjoyment.

Well over 1 million viewers and over 3000 comments.
Unfortunately, (although you won't see them here) there was a grand argument started up between the extreme religious
in community and the not-so-religious. I can't personally see why that could happen or why it should happen.
(Some people leave some ridiculous comments on these videos and should be ashamed of themselves !).
It is simply - a beautiful experience, and one I found
extremely relaxing. Thanks to the original photographer Jon Rawlinson - to be found at http://jonrawlinson.com.
One of the most beautiful videos
I have
ever come across.
Delightful, joyous and
just maybe a lesson to us humans ?
If two such different creatures
can be so protective
and caring of one another - why
can't we find this
in our human world, more than
we do now ?
