Extreme Close-ups of Dogs I Walk
![Ezra](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Ezra-300x225.jpg)
This is Ezra. He used to try to bite me when I’d go to put his harness on, which made walking him sometimes very precarious, but he recently had a urinary tract infection (an urinary tract infection?), and, well, now he doesn’t try to bite me anymore.
![Slim](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Slim-225x300.jpg)
This is Slim. He can be finicky at times — emotionally sensitive and prone to bouts of jealousy regarding his family’s newborn. It’s not uncommon for him to puke from anxiety.
![Sebastian](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Sebastian-225x300.jpg)
This is Sebastian. He’s actually looking in the direction of “camera right” in this picture but doesn’t it look like he casting an evil glare right at us?
![Victor](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Victor-300x225.jpg)
This is Victor. He doesn’t like loud noises. If we’re walking and he hears a loud noise the walk is, for all intents and purposes, over.
![Pearl](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Pearl-225x300.jpg)
This is Pearl. You can’t see it in this picture but she has a large black spot on her left side that is as close to a perfect circle as it gets. For this reason, I like to pretend she has latent mystical powers and I’ll often rub her spot for good luck in the morning.
![Gizmo](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Gizmo-225x300.jpg)
This is Gizmo. He made a big mess in the kitchen the other day. I’m not terribly happy with him right now.
![Gunner](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Gunner-225x300.jpg)
This is Gunner. He’s on a summer-long vacation upstate. On our last day together he made a big mess, like Gizmo, in the kitchen, although to his credit he was having stomach issues at the time.
![Mario](http://htmlgiant.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Mario-300x225.jpg)
This is Mario. He’s roughly the size of a football and likes to be carried like one. I would never do this but sometimes I fantasize about dropping back and throwing Mario in a tight spiral to a receiver running a slant ~15 yards down field. I have the same fantasy when I’m carrying a Nalgene at the library. I don’t even like football that much.
