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.

  I really liked this shot the first time I seen it, and nothing has changed about that. My favorite part is still the snow covered nose showing just how active he has been. Well done Bill!!

  Hi Bill,
I am browsing through your gallery and enjoying your work immensely!!! I love this photo of the beautiful golden retriever! I had one of these beautiful dogs several years back. When he passed away I got the twin golden labs and named one after the old dog. Oh how I cried and cried about the loss of the old dog. So you see, I had to stop and stare at this handsome dog!!! Great work!

  Your photos are breathtaking, Bill.

I'm glad you waited for this beautiful golden retriever to 'paws' for a picture.

I have a 5 1/2 year old yellow lab...so I know what waiting is like<:))

  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!
