dj.tigersprout from San Bruno, CA, United Statesoh my goodness -- this brings back so many memories! our dogs would go bonkers when the lawn mower was on!! it droves us all crazy! ;) great shot! i am flinching from the reverie! 9 Sep 2008 5:23am @dj.tigersprout: It was the sweetest thing Dj, the man would mow and the woof would walk next to him, the man stopped, he stopped, he started again, the woof followed without a sound, it was great lol Michael Skorulski from Cigel, SlovakiaA great shot, Lorraine. I'm fascinated by that yellow cable thing that appears to be attached to the mower. And I thought it was a great way of keeping the mowers electric cord out of the way. but I see it is separate. 9 Sep 2008 5:38am @Michael Skorulski: Totally separate Michael, just lucky I guess lol ;) Kylie Greenan from AustraliaYou've lost the plot girlfriend LOL... like Michael I want to know what the yellow cord thing is. A great image Lorraine, no wonder the dog is barking at it, it's bigger than he is! :o) 9 Sep 2008 5:57am @Kylie Greenan: lol Kylie, that yellow cable didn't feature at all in my brain, I just wanted that gorgeous mutt who followed the man back and forth without a sound ;) Hans from Heiligeneich, Austriano idea what tha title means, but the pic makes me smile...big smile! 9 Sep 2008 6:56am @Hans: Hi Hans, the little dog was enjoyed his walk following the man mowing the lawn, thanks so much :) Janice Thomson from CanadaI love this mon amie! My dog does the same thing when I first start the mower. The humorous title is perfect for this capture. 9 Sep 2008 7:26am @Janice Thomson: lol they're so sweet, he didn't bark once, he just followed happily so sweet ;) António Pires from Lisbon, PortugalHorizontal lines, diagonal lines, very dynamic, "action!" said Director. Very nice the dog helping his master. 9 Sep 2008 9:13am @António Pires: I like that, thanks a lot Antonio :) Rui from Leiria, PortugalLOL Is this yellow cable connected to the lawn mower. I don't think so, I guess is the perspective that makes us think it is... but I'm not sure. 9 Sep 2008 9:26am @Rui: That's ok the cable is something else entirely lol Thanks for sharing Rui, that's funny :) Betty from New Jersey, United StatesDid you wait for him to get to that point so that the mower handle and "yellow thing" were lined up? Great shot, Lorraine! 9 Sep 2008 9:41am @Betty: Nope sweetie, pure luck lol Thanks a lot! Andrew Gould from Sydney, AustraliaBoth owner and dog look so purposeful in their poses.
