This dog looks identical to my dog

Have you tried letting your dog near musical instrument cases? We need research.

The dog trap is working.

Well it was obviously designed for him so I don’t know why you’re complaining.

This looks like an honest to goodness professional photography shoot. Reminds me of this thrift store book find called "Maddy on Things" which was a photo journal of this guy and his dog driving across the country taking pictures of his dog Maddy standing on things. Which was apparently a quirk the dog had and he decided to do something with it.

I've never wanted to be the main character in any book more.

Is your dog a cat?

The guitar case has the neck support he needs when you're not strumming his belly.

Mine would fit in a fiddle case. He'd probably enjoy me closing the lid too.

New portable dog carrier!!

Or maybe the doggie was a guitar in a past life?

What kind of dog is that? The mottling is why I'm asking. We've got a yellow lab, but no papers or DNA results, but he's got mottling like that on one of his legs that leads us to believe he's mixed with something.

I am not sure, but you might want to ask this person as his dog looks identical: https://lemmy.world/comment/8737478
