Yep, that too.

A very good scene,just like the movies.

The paint job on this one is great,about the dog, the doberman have dark eyes,so I think it`s ok for me.

That's a German Shepherd Dog, not a Dobie. Check the ruff around the collar.

Shepherds also have dark eyes. I dont see why people are joking and commenting about missing eyes. Maybe just a dot of gloss on each one would work, other than that heres a pic of my doog.

Notice the surprised look, critiques welcome.

That was my point--the poor doog's eyes look lifeless and un-finished. There should be a spot of white and some gloss on them to at least look like he HAS eyes!  

P.S.---This is one CUTE DOOG!

My doog Sheba, thinks your doog looks bemused....

The painting of the dog looks closer to that of a Belgian Shepard, especially the Tervuren type.

Mad mike is Sheba a Border Collie?

I know that they are used for detector dogs. Someone had told me that this breed was used by the Germans as a patrol dogs during WWII alongside the Alsatian (German Shepard).

Our beloved loopy mutt is a German shepherd, kelpie and blue heeler cross and she is simply the best dog temperament wise. She is 10 years old now and going a bit creaky in the back legs, but still can chase a ball/squeaky toy with great gusto.

cheers

Madmike - she sounds like a keeper. We have two female tricolor Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, still puppies and as different as night and day.

Well, snce we're all sharing our doogs...

Sebastian and Toby--Mutts of German Shepherd, Rottweiler, and Australian Sheepdog.

Sebastian's the "wimp', Toby is the "Dominator"! They're both brothers, 3.5 years old, and about 80 pounds!

Not sure. It was a kitbash between a dachshund and some AM terrier.

My SO loves Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and has often mentioned getting one once Sheba goes to the big kennel in the sky.. Lovely little dogs. I bet those two keep you busy?

Mimi and kelly, eight and nine and fine dogs as can be.

Back on topic for the dio...I've looked at this several times and realize what's wrong...the check point looks like it's in the middle of the town square. No reason for anyone to walk through the gate when they could walk or drive right around it. Minimally, there should be groundwork defining a road and a choke point in that road to force travellers to stop. It would be like putting a sobriety check point in the middle of a parking lot and expecting people to drive over to it to go under the gate. The hedgehog is also off to the side of the center of the gate so anyone running the gate (Why, I can't imagine when it's so easy to drive around it) wouud not be hampered by the obstacle unless the two guards antoicipate the runner and drag it to the middle of the gate and the driver still insists on going through instead of around the gate.

Now.....about your doogs....?  .....   .....or are you a "cat man"

I've got three doogs, two Springer Spaniels and a Jackass Russell Terrier. I only wish that I could show you the picture of him sitting in the toilet after a hard day of bouncing off the walls. He loves to cool off in the crapper.
