Dog in a (shopping) basket

Thankfully the title doesn’t in any way refer to a new and unpleasant take on that 1970’s pub favourite, chicken in a basket, but is instead a nod to a dog, quite literally, in a basket.

    I love how you captured his eyes looking at you. To me, they seem to pleading for you to rescue him from this embarrassing basket.

      Yeah, the poor little thing does look rather doleful, doesn’t he? It never ceases to amaze me how many dogs are carried or carted about, when obviously they’d be much happier walking.

    Yup, I agree with Matt. It is shouting: Help, help, I sense radiation too.

      Not sure about the radiation, but it does seem like a look for help…

    Alternatively, it could be saying “Poor human, walking around like a sucker. Shame….” 😉

      Yes, it was probably changing into another outfit!
