Superb close up in the large photo and I like how the dogs feet (paws) are crossed in the smaller image. Two great photos for theme day.

Kate said...

I'm glad that I paws(ed) to look at your photo carefully. Great idea fits into your pet interest and activity.

Petrea said...

Jilly, I love, love, love this! I always think my Boz has the most beautiful feet.

Snapshutter said...

This brings back memories. I so remember the feel (and smell) of our Annie's feet. Big and clutzy. Swimming in the lake with her you made damn sure you didn't get in front of her else get seriously scratched.

Marie-Noyale said...

I love them both!
the first one : you just want to caress those cushions
the 2nd ..for the pose!!!

Judy said...

Wonderful paw close-up. I love paws. The paws of cats are splendid too....velvet and leather.
Have been enjoying your photos immensely. Thanks.

Dog feet! Meet barking feet! Brown feet not on a street! French doggie FEET! Greet feet, always a treat! Bravo! Bonjour de EAGAN daily photo of Minnesota, USA

HA! I expected nothing less than those paws from you, Jilly. :-)

Great interpretation of the theme.

maria said...

Love them both, Jilly!

Teri said...

Oh thank you Jilly, tan and black feet! As Snapshutter noted, these photos bring familiar doggies into close-up, especially the smell.

tapirgal said...

Both pictures are captivating for different reasons. I'm glad I stopped by.

Scott Johnson said...

Great choice! And nice bonus with the second picture. I would have had a hard time choosing between these two myself.

I just love dog feet. I love my Bingo's feet and little Jo-sea has huge feet for a small dog.. Great shots. MB

Hyde DP said...

dogs paws - just what I would expect from you.

Bibi said...

Oh, goodie, you did a dog's feet! I was considering that until I spied the photo I finally did post. I love the smell of a dog's foot.... And your photos are great.

Vogon Poet said...

You didn't surprise anyone... Both beautiful images, my fav is the second one.

Hilary said...

Ooh lovely squidgy pads!! Great pictures. Hope all is well as the maison Jilly :)

Babooshka said...

Knew you would have to have paws in there and so glad you did. The individual fur is terrific. Has to be a fav theme for me all the cute doggie paws popping up.

A perfect choice!

Your picture brought a huge smile to my face! That is a great shot.

Lessie said...

Wonderful photo! Great choice.

Abe Lincoln said...

I love to smell any dog's foot. That smell, to me, is like smelling a leather saddle on a riding horse. Wow.

Denton said...

Hi Jilly, your photo is wonderful and your qoute, by Edith Wharton, is perfect and oh so true.

susieofarabia said...

What a great closeup the top photo is! And I love how his paws are crossed in the 2nd photo. Very cute post for Theme Day!

Julie said...

I can almost smell that piquant paw smell from here, Jilly. A very personal response to the theme. Very affecting ...

Mais comment trouves tu un chien à Menton

Fio said...

Cute!!!

Felicia said...

Hi Jilly, dogs do make great models (and friends). Unlike some commenters, I'm not a fan of dog paw smell or people's feet for that matter! :)

lavenderlady said...

wonderful detail...there is nothing like a wonderful pet/friend.

Karen said...

Wonderful photos for Theme day. I almost used pics of my cats' feet. Took the photos and then didn't use them. Lovely paws.

PJ said...

There's just something about dogs and crossed paws that really gets to me. They always look so sweet. Love it, Jilly.

BeachILike said...

I think it is not small at the first place. Sweet it is.

Thanks for stop by my blog, I just joined CDP not long ago and theme day is interesting to participate.

AHHH, i like the second photo best with the two crossed paws. the first photo makes me think I should pull a thorn out of his paw. and in arizona I have pulled many cactus spines from the paws of dogs.

Tash said...

Un très élégant et chic chien! (Had to say that in French, English just would not do.) Love the macro and the pose in 2nd.

You have captured wonderfully the subtle and soft beauty of this animal!

Tanya said...

Oh I love this! And I ditto what Abe said, I thought that as soon as I saw the photo but thought you'd think I was strange,lol, then noticed Abe said it so I decided it was ok to admit!

Catherine said...
