Orange Dog

I saw this dog today, he was tied up to a post while his human had gone into a nearby shop.

It has rained for over 48 hours now, it's never stopped, hence his orange coat ! He was just about under cover.

I gave him a stroke and had a chat with him, he wagged his tail and seemed pleased to chat to me !

I asked him if I could take his photo (Sony Xperia IV mobile phone shot), he wagged his tail in approval.

Black and orange against a bland bright background. I edited the photo on my phone to ensure you can see the details in his fur and eyes.

My hands smelt of "wet dog" after I'd said goodbye to him !!!

Goodness me, he is cocooned in there! You wouldn’t lose him in that colour, would you?

[Phil Howcroft]

@casablanca he was very snug Casa, it was absolutely pouring down, but not too cold for a furry dog , perhaps a raincoat !!!

Lol oh he's so cute! Poor doggie, poor Phil with all that rain. Lovely photo

[Judith Johnson]

He's really sweet, and you tell a wonderful story Phil. We both laughed at this one 🤣 😂

[Renee Salamon]

This is hilarious - he doesn’t look very happy

[Mags]

Aww! Looks like old fashioned long underwear. Sweet shot of this fur baby.

[Kerry McCarthy]

Cute little guy; that’s quite an outfit

He certainly looks cosy in his suit

[Rob Z]

Lol - It makes you wonder if his coat really keeps him dry...

[Boxplayer]

What a trooper

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful dog portrait. He must have come all the way from Holland with the orange coat. I liked your conversation with him - made me smile.

He’s been tangoed!

[Hazel]

Lovely! I remember that wet dog smell from Jinks! And you're reminding me of wet mac smell on the school bus many years ago!

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

Aww, poor little chap (or chappess), he doesn't look very happy! Cute capture and fun caption.

He looks great in his bright outfit
