Brown and White Retreiver waiting in Swan Street Richmond

This beautifully groomed brown and white retriever was out and about on a cold spring day in Richmond.

Her white silky hair was so white it seemed a pity to see her sitting on a grubby pavement. She was snuggled down beside the plants at the Book Street Cafe keeping out of the way of the foot traffic. She looks very bored with it all.

Golden Retriever and White Labrador in Albert Park

A winter's morning by the Albert Park Lake and dogs are out for walks but when their owners' stop for breakfast at the Carousel Cafe a bike stand is a good place to wait.

You can guess the direction of the cafe.

This white labrador is also watching, intently who is coming and going from the Carousel Cafe and to do this he has a bar of the bike stand in the way. You would think he would move but perhaps he feels secure behind it.

Labrador and Golden Retriever meet in Alma Park.

These two didn’t know each but I feel sure they will recognize a mate next time they meet.

This is not a time to socialize for the German Shepherd! He has other things to attend to.
