Wow, your dog is sensual and erotic! :) I find myself strangely drawn...
All kidding aside, I don't recall seeing that painting before. I'm a fan!
Our Lab is about 5 years old, and is the best dog I've ever known. We often call her the "World's Friendliest Dog" because she absolutely loves people, loves to meet new people, and acts as though she's never met a person she didn't like... which is true. I would trust her with children of any age, including newborns. In fact, she played the role of mother once to a new kitten we had, allowing the kitten to suckle (the Lab has never bred and has been spayed) and sleep curled up in her bosom.
I would not trust our German Shorthair with small children until I had a chance to see how they got along. She's far more "suspicious" than the Lab, and requires 30 seconds or so before she passes judgement on a human. She's never bit anyone, but she has barked at and backed away from a few people if they're strangers to her and they just come out of nowhere.
It was the first nudie picture in general circulation. Even though the young lady is extremely modest and nothing is showing, she created a SCANDAL in PARIS of all places. Which of course created a demand . . . and she became the first pinup calendar.
My girl will similarly inch into the shallows rather than go leaping in. But once she's in, she swims like a torpedo boat . . .
