So I was watching the latest series of Master of Photography on Sky Arts this week and the assignment was to photograph a series on images portraying transgender. Each entrant was allocated a subject to follow around, and this particular subject had this dog as his pet... I took one look at the TV screen and thought - that looks EXACTLY like Annie 🐶
How totally bizarre is that?? Given that even in this country she is a rare combination of breeds, bred by the Guide Dog Association to pacify those wanting a GSD as a guide dog, they breed a GSD/Golden Retriever Cross and this is what Annie is and what this dog looks like.
Essentially the combination makes just as poor a guide dog as a pure GSD would, their intelligence is too independent and they are not a dog who does things to please it's owner. Unlike the pure bred Golden Retriever.
Still if Annie hadn't failed abysmally then we wouldn't have had the amazing opportunity to rehome her - every cloud...
