Description
On a Sunday morning in the small western town of Evanston, Wyoming, Rose patiently waits in the truck while her owner finishes breakfast and chats with neighbors in the Main Street Artisans Café and gallery.
The Cafee has a wonderful friendly atmosphere, and their waffles are terrific!
I'm guessing that Rose and her guardian, whose long white braided hair reached below his waist, are regulars.
Update June 2014 -
I was surprised and saddened to learn that this Cafee was sold in September 2013 and closed shortly thereafter. I have thought of sending this photo to the Cafee owners and asking them to forward it to Rose's companion - I thought he would like to have it. Another lesson in this that I seem not to learn permanently - don't wait to do nice things as the window doesn't stay open forever. I cannot find them or anyone who knew them.

Pit Bulls are natural posers, and you have managed to capture so well the elegance and intensity of this beautiful girl....voted!
Andrea Lazar replied:
Hi, Mucha! Thank you for the vote! She was so sweet and her obvious devotion was so touching, and to this day I regret I never found the owner.

Andrea, this is one of the most unusual and great portraits of dogs that I've seen. Wonderfully done!
Andrea Lazar replied:
That is so nice to hear, Morris - this gentle and loving little being made a lasting impression on me that I've remembered fondly ever since.

Callan Percy
Wow! Wonderful image Andrea. Have never seen a driving pit bull before. Awesome. L/F
Andrea Lazar replied:
Ha, ha, Callan - made me laugh. Since I knew she was on the passenger side, I never looked at it - but now I see, it could look like she was behind the wheel! Driving dogs are actually in, it seems, per the current commercials! She was ahead of her time!

Kym Backland

Thanks, Keith - you're right. The expression on his face and the look in his eyes is just beautiful.

Love this Andrea! It captures the love and loyalty this Pit Bull has for their companion. They are truly a special breed :)

Hi, Sue! Looking at your gallery, I understand your lovely comment. It is a special love we have with our dogs, isn't it?! Thank you very much for taking time to look at Rose and I am glad it led me to see your wonderful works. Happy Holidays!
