My beautiful boy - 6 months on

It's not perhaps the best technical picture out there, but I took this on Monday 29th Nov - our 6 month anniversary of Axel being with us. I love this picture because it shows his gentle nature and expression

But its traditional to call dogs 'boy' or 'girl' as in 'good boy' or 'good girl'.

I call my dogs girls, but it doesn't mean that I think they're human.

I know they're not, but it's nicer than saying "My beautiful Canis Familiaris/Dog"...I know he's not a human, he's my dearly loved dog. I'm sorry if my expression of affection was offensive.

Thank you Hali, I love his eyes too. They're so expressive and, well, yummy!
Your explanation was spot on, couldn't have said it better (I tried and failed!)
