Dog Blog Post #1174


Superstition

From Wikipedia, Hair of the Dog refers:

"… to alcohol that is consumed with the aim of lessening the effects of a hangover. The expression originally referred to a method of treatment of a rabid dog bite by placing hair from the dog in the bite wound. The use of the phrase as a metaphor for a hangover treatment dates back to the time of William Shakespeare."

Lacking either a rabid dog or a dog bite (although Henry might pass for the former if I go too long between muzzle wipes) I opted to show the alcohol connection.

Our Daily Challenge - September 13, 2013 - "Superstition"


Daily Dog Challenge "683. Canine Curves"

Ok folks, Golden Retrievers are supposed to be Rectangular dogs, not curvaceous ones! The tops of their heads perhaps?

The Minions are pretty curvy - especially on top - as are the bottles and glasses.


Behind The Scenes... Sort Of



Superstitious Minons
Henry: "Wake me when you're ready."


The shot above was taking early on, when I was still fiddling with the props. This shot came before the shot above it, but I didn't like the shadow across Henry's face.

Note, however, that through all my fiddling with the glasses and herding the Minions around, Henry remained in exactly the same place.

What a great model!
