Taken for use as a Christmas card for a friend. This dog was very active. It took about an hour to get him to stand still for this brief moment.

Bill, I have really enjoyed visiting your gallery today, I and ended here at the end of the line with Cargo. WOW! He is a beauty. I have a golden girl, Jessie, and lost my golden boy, Duke a few years ago. Goldens are the bestby far ( in my opinion) I have been trying to get Jess to pose so I can at least get a picture of her up on the site. NO luck so far, but I keep trying! #3214577William C.
