Asian Dogs, by Lili Chin

Lili Chin is my favourite dog artist. I love her posters on dog training and behaviour.  Her 'Dogs of the World' series is the most adorable breed directory ever. I particularly like that she's included aboriginal dogs along with the better-known modern breeds.  Have a look at the full set on her Doggie Drawings website . I have 'Asian Dogs' from the series, framed in our study. Look closely at the third row...!  This is a terrible photo taken with my phone, with a flash reflection and all kinds of mess. The original poster is in her website. You can follow her wonderful work on her Facebook page.   Oh, and she does cats too!

Ashish Sharma recently read our ' temperament guide' for Indy owners   (have a look, it's good!) It inspired him to send in this interesting description of his beautiful INDog-mix Choco, and all these photos. I'm posting my favourite one first, though it was very hard to pick a favourite! He came to us on 4th July, 2013, during the rainy season; I think he was between 30-45 days old. I was getting out of my cab after my night shift and saw him following me to the building, completely drenched. Seeing this cute puppy running behind me all wet, I took him upstairs for food and to dry him, so that I could release him once the rain stopped. Coincidentally, for a couple of days previously we had been discussing adopting a pet from an adoption centre. I have been living with dogs since my birth, and my wife has a labrador at her home as well).  After I took him in I did not feel like abandoning him. I did not see his mother anywhere around our society either, nor any more pup...
