  6. I see somebody mentioned what I mentioned last time about dogs looking like their master, so I won’t mention it again, even if true in most of the pics.
    Also, I would like to point out that Trump was the only president that did not have a dog. Says a lot about the egotist, doesn’t it.
    Yesterday was National Dog Day here in the US. My eyes teared up when I thought of all the wonderful dogs I’ve had in my life.
    Nice post again, Pete.
