Bella was my special girl but she died two week ago of bone cancer. Here she is a few years ago looking into the setting sun. She is a mix of half Russian Wolfhound and half Scottish Deerhound. She came from a working liter, one of her sisters appeared in an off Broadway production of Annie and another male works controlling Canadian Geese at local places where they are out of control - she just laid on the couch and watched TV. (5 years and 808 days ago)

Sorry to hear that you lost your special girl. I am sure you will treasure all the photos you took of her. I like the sunset bokeh in this photo and the dog looks sweet but the focus on her is slightly soft looking to me. I think it might have been better if the eyes were sharper.

A dreamy looking image and your story is heartbreaking. I have been a dog owner and the only problem with owning a dog is that they die before us and leave paw prints on our hearts...forever. I love the colour palette, however, Bella seems a bit soft...perhaps that is a good thing to offer a dreamy image.
