Part of my series on the dogs we’ve meet while visiting Taiwan.
Yes, I know the color is wrong, but for those of us old enough to remember, doesn’t this scruffy, adorable little guy that I spied at the Chinese New Year Celebration on Lotus Pond remind you of the ever lovable Benji! Of course we all know how Benji felt about leashes and this guy’s hair is starting to thin here and there (shh…just pretend not to notice), but just look at that face…aw.
I hope you enjoyed this installment from my “Dogs of Taiwan” series.
“Hey buddy, can you spare some change? Buy me a drink, please.” I could almost hear this dog asking me that as I walked by. I was blown away seeing this dog just casually sitting on a bar stool, looking mighty sporting in his Adidas jersey. Would you buy this dog a drink, or would you encourage him to quit his habit? I know. It’s kind of tough, he is pretty adorable…isn’t he?
I hope you enjoy this installment of my “Dogs of Taiwan” series. As you can notice he, like the previous dog I posted (If Jack Nicholson was a Dog), is wearing clothing. A lot of dogs here are part of a group I like to call “Dogs in Clothes”.
I shot this photo at the Lakeview Café & Bar on the banks of Lotus Pond in the Zuoying District of Kaohsiung.
Since arriving in Taiwan we’ve noticed that the Taiwanese love their dogs, but some in Kaohsiung take it up to a whole new level. They pander and dote on their adorable little puppies to the point that would do a Beverly Hills socialite proud. Being an animal and dog lover myself, I really enjoy this.
This is the first installment in my “Dogs of Taiwan” series I plan on posting of the many dogs we’ve seen while visiting Taiwan.
The first one here may be favorite. We found him sitting around Lotus Pond in the Zuoying District of Kaohsiung. This dog is cool and he knows it. Definitely the Jack Nicholson of dogs. I like to think that if Jack was a dog this is the look he’d be going for.
And yes, that is a minion (“Despicable Me”) on his back.
You can look forward to many more photos like this coming your way during our stay here in Taiwan.
