Shih Tzu dogs need a lot of grooming and Oscar is no exception. This is him in the snow on Christmas Day last year. Good thing he had all that fur as it was freezing!

Filed in Blarney, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanOscar our Shih Tzu is as comfortable in snow as he is in any other extreme weather.

Oscar on the Shaky Bridge
Filed in Black and White, Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 10-20, UrbanOscar, our Shih Tzu, on the Shaky Bridge just outside Fitzgerald’s Park in Cork. I think he prefers solid ground!
My dog Oscar shows his appreciation for recycling efforts to save the world.
Our shih tzu Oscar looks up at me as I photograph him on Christmas Day 2007. He must have wondered when he was getting his Christmas dinner! (Later, when baby was gone to bed!)

We forgot to bring a ball with us but Oscar went running after anything I threw. He never did catch the object. I guess there’s nothing quite like a tennis ball eh? I love the evening sun on him in this [...]

Shih Tzu in flight
Filed in Animals, Blarney, Canon 20D, Cork, Dogs, Garden, Ireland, Photos, Sigma 18-200Shih Tzu in flight My Shih Tzu Oscar just after he picked up the ball I threw for him! Most dogs have a strong fetch instinct but Oscar’s was hidden away until we discovered it earlier this year. Now he loves the phrase "where’s the ball Oscar?"

Shih Tzu and the Ball
Filed in Animals, Black and White, Blarney, Canon 20D, Cork, Dogs, Ireland, Nature, Photos, Sigma 18-200Shih Tzu and the Ball Shih Tzu dogs love to play ball! We only found this out after a dog trainer came to the house and “ruffled his fur” a bit and in the process Oscar became a lot more relaxed. Now he adores playing ball and even one mention of, “where’s the ball?” and [...]
