This little fella is undoubtedly well cared for, and similarly well clothed, but while patiently waiting for his master to fill up on beer and yakitori, he not only appeared sad.
But downright inconsolable.
The saddest little dog in Tokyo?
Photographs from a small group of islands
Biggie says
haha, maybe the poor bugger wanted a cold beer and some yakitori for himself too.
Lee says
I dare say he did. He certainly didn’t want to be waiting there, that’s for sure!
mary keating says
warm though…
A says
I think it is just sad to be seen in that hideous thing. Now it is getting sadder having to endure being photographed in that.
Lee says
I don’t know. Like Mary said, it looks warm. And believe me, it’s nowhere near as monstrous as some of the gear dogs in Tokyo are forced to wear. Check out these poor fellas.
grant says
cute dog, waiting his girlfriend open the door. lol.
Andy says
Lee, did you take this photo in Kichijoi? I’m sure I’ve seen this little chap, and his natty jumper, many times. He’s hard to miss, really.
Lee says
Yeah, I did. Outside Iseya, near the park. The poor bugger isn’t always stood waiting outside is he?
Andy says
I think the old gadgies inside Iseya throw him a few scraps from time to time. He’s a stoic.
Doris Simon says
Lee,
you have a wonderful eye on the heartwarming pitty little things,
little??
just wonderful
Lee says
Thank you Doris!
Lizzy says
Aw poor little fella!
shruti says
Pretty cute I say!
Marc T says
In Paris they bring the dogs right inside!
Kay says
Aww, he looks so sad. They should have just brought him in to sit beside his buddy :).
Yeahbutno says
I wonder if he’s not happy because his tail is trapped in his clothes.
Lee says
It’s fairly rare to see a dog actually not wearing clothes, so he’s probably used to it.
Matt says
You managed to capture his great expression. You know, watching others eat yakitori is always hard.
