I've always noticed that when people have a country house here, they often opt to have plaster lions (white, but sometimes gold....) on the tops of the gate posts on either side of the entrance to their garden. While in a nearby country town the other weekend, I came upon these plaster dogs! Though they're most likely Saint Bernards, I thought they looked a bit like Bibi, so I immortalized her here with one. Borrowed my son's hands again, like I did here.

No more plaster lions!

SPRING FLOWERS YEAR-ROUND
My 93-year-old former colleague and travel buddy loves flowers. In her garden in the soring and summer, flowers burst with color. Results ...

cute photo, but I really like the new header, colorful serenity.
Wow, I don't think I've noticed such things here. Here, people don't use such decorations (at most, I've seen elfs or water fountains).
I don't think Bibi liked the comparison (although I like her necklace -"Follow your dreams"-).
Precious and priceless!
Bibi is a fabulous model.
Oh this has really cheered me up. Adorable and funny. I stroked Bibi's paw virtually and thanked her.
Cute! Bibi is quite the poser!
this is such a cute picture of bibi. love the header. anyway i just love your photography-all of it.
I love Bibi!!!
Is she have a pug???
Oh dear , its late here - I meant , is Bibi half a pug? LOL
I need to get some sleep.
Lady Jicky, I don't really know. Bibi is a rescued dog from a local shelter. I kind of think she's part Pekinese and (?) though she hasn't got any Pekinese feistiness.
Such a cute dog.
Just plain cute!
Saw this yesterday in the portal and meant to comment and somehow the day passed by...as it does.
Cute pic and thanks for the link to the carrot shot. I loved that.
Lovely post, this little dog looks so tender and bright, great capture!
Bibi is very photogenic. Much more so than her rather stiff friend.
Bibi, this is awesome! hahah

Wonderful portrait - what an adorable pair. I love Bibi' little tounge peeking thru.
It is a plaster Bibi! Your son is such a good hand model!
It really does resemble your Bibi! How adorable! Just the right size, too. Well done, Son, also. :)
VERY VERY CUTE!!
"You may kiss my paw." :-)
She's way cuter than the stone puppy. Fun to get a sense of her true size with the hand there to give scale. This is very fun to see.
