Now that is not your average pooch photo, and Leo even posed nicely for you. Good one Christian.

Leo is a well liked Poodle,

apparently the kids were all over him and he was as cool as and didn't mind. :D
Leo is not our Poodle. :lol:
I spoke to the owner - she used coloured hair spray and stencils to craft the appaearance - even painting his nails. :shock:
I think she did a great job including the stencil of the RSPCA paw.
He was gorgeous.

Cheers,
CD

You may need to check either your camera white balance or your monitor calibration/settings, because the dog's ears have a distinct purple tinge :D :D

ps. nice shots!
