AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Poor doggie! It must hurt him!

I've often wondered why a pet owner (or breeder) would choose to have (or breed such a labor intensive breed such as this. Isn't owning and caring for pets already riddled with responsibility and chores?

A very cool dog. How heavy must his fur be when he gets wet.

I wonder if the dreadlocksif translates into one relaxed and happy dog.

I like that look, but I think if I had one of those, I would shave him, often the dreadlocks tangle up too many hairs at once and handicap the dog. Love the haiku!

Dreadlocks, Hmm!

A friend of mine had one of those dogs ... if I remember correctly, it's called a Komondor.

It was a great dog, but kind of resembles a walking floor mop !!

LOVE it! A human would have to sit for hours to get his/her hair to look like this :-D
