In summary, the conversation revolved around sharing pictures of dogs and encouraging others to post their own. One person shared a picture of their dog Maxwell, who had a troubled past but still had a happy face. Another person mentioned adding their own pictures of their pups tomorrow. Someone else shared a picture of their two dogs, and the conversation ended with someone else sharing a picture of their dog named Foxy Lady.

It has been a while that we had a thread on dog pictures. But this evening I was on a birthday party with the canine concentration well above national average. So I shot this:

and a lot more. The dogs were happy to pose like that.

This is Maxwell.

I think I've posted him before.

He's a very troubled dog...spent the first few years of his life being neglected (tied to a tree) before he was rescued.

Poor Maxwell has never been quite right. That's his happy face...when you look up "hangdog" in the dictionary, you see a picture of Maxwell.
