I can’t believe your daughter was wearing shorts. I think you live kind of near me, but I have certainly not yet experienced shorts weather.
I have to say, though, I like the combo of shorts and winter boots. Except only long-legged, skinny young things like your daughter could pull it off. I am none of those things any longer.
I wear shorts with boots when I walk JJ too….in my dreams.
Stella seems to know her way around the hood…that’s a good thing so Bossy’s daughter doesn’t get lost.
Do people accuse you of starving Stella? My mastiff was skinny like her and I was constantly having to defend his eating habits!

Are you sure you’re not from Canada? Because the whole shorts, uggs, down-filled vest combo is practically a uniform for Canadian girls at the beginning of spring. The shorts show our undying hope that yes, winter well end…eventually.
She has long Model legs. Sooo Green.
I want to steal her Uggs to!
The Dane is going to start asking for a fee
for every picture soon…

Bossy’s daughter looks just like my mailman. Boots and shorts in the middle of winter! What brave souls. I won’t wear shorts in public anymore.
My sister’s dog was a boxer and I always called him Scooby Doo’s brother Sniffy Doo.
At first I thought “How cute! Bossy’s daughter is wearing shorts with tights and Uggs to keep warm!”
Then I realized those weren’t white tights. Those were white legs. And I felt a little ashamed of myself for giggling that someone else has pale legs like me.
You have to have legs like that to have a Great Dane, don’t you? I guess that’s why I’m doomed to have miniature poodles and goldendoodles – all of whom have good sized haunches… *sigh.

You sure don’t have to worry about her safety when she’s out walking that horse you call a dog.
My gosh – but your girl’s legs are long! And it cracks me up that she’s wearing shorts with her boots, scarf, long shirt and vest. Oh, to have the metabolism of a tween again!
I will ignore the fact that bossy’s cute daughter is wearing shorts. IGNORE. LalalallalalIcan’thearyou! kind of ignore.
Nice Chevy Nova.

Stella’s looking a wee bit perturbed at you in the second-to-last shot…maybe cause you said it was time to go home…then tries to drag you all back downtown in the last shot. Dogs are so funny.
If I had legs like Bossy’s daughter, I would wear shorts every day of my life. (Heck, I would wear shorts daily if I had Stella’s legs, although I would only want two of them.)
I am so proud of your dane. She is a superb walker. My tiny mother lives by herself and has a 170 lb great dane that pulls my mom everywhere. She needs to learn a few things from your Stella.
Oh how I adore Danes… even when they ‘tow’ … has Bossy’s daughter considered rollerblades? Kinda like waterskiing but with Stella as the motorboat, the pavement as the river, and the blades as the skis? Now THAT would be worth a series of photos…
Our Cozzie was taught to ‘heel’ from a very early age… not that he wanted to. He was BUSTING to lead, but was such a good boy that 95% of the time, he stuck to his position at my side. The other 5% wasn’t pretty. Not pretty at all….

Wait….pajama pants girl swapped for pajama boxer shorts?
I love it.
I’ve got myself some pretty long legs and my dogs have two inch legs…no pet owner likeness like yours have.
I work with a girl who has three Great Danes. (THREE!)
Holy Crap!
Sadly, I have learned that I can never have a great Dane because I cannot accomplish step 1 of walking a great dane: grow impossibly long and elegant legs.
Wait. I don’t see the lawn and leaf size bags you must have to carry to clean up after your pony!
love the long legged pictures! daughter and dog alike.

People DO look like their dogs…in the legs, anyway. And that’s a compliment for your daughter. Hey, you’ve seen this gal’s site, I hope:

I’d say that’s an accurate portrayal! Our Guinness Great Dane likes sniffing EVERYTHING, too, as well as the sideways walk.
I love Bossy’s daughter’s winterwear!
My Dad just rescued two Great Danes… Lord bless you all, I have a hard time keeping up with my Greyhound and he’s about half the size!
I wear shorts with boots when I walk JJ too….in my dreams.
Stella seems to know her way around the hood…that’s a good thing so Bossy’s daughter doesn’t get lost.
Are you sure this isn’t an ad for Uggs?
Oh, these pictures are adorable!!

I’m sorry. I couldn’t hear you over the shorts with Uggs.
Is it a requirement that the dog walker have legs exactly the same length as the Great Dane?… Well done, Bossy’s Daughter. (Gawd, she’s getting tall.)
How tall is Bossy’s daughter? I think she may be taller than me. I’m GREEN!
Bossy’s Dane isn’t just Great, she will lead you down the right path.
She has long Model legs. Sooo Green.

Thank god she’s not wearing a pencil skirt like those damn Westminster handlers! I hate to see them struggle to walk in those tight skirts!
Six long lean and lanky legs.

Why doesn’t she just ride him?
I have a Smella, too! She’s a seven-pounder, though: http://thesubtlerudder.com/?p=81
Two more photos and you could have had a 12 of 12.
Brrrrrrrrr. Bossy’s daughter’s naked legs are making me COLD!
But the pics make the heart warm so it all evens out.
Wow, I wish my dogs would behave that calmly on a walk.
My whole life, I’ve wished for long lean gams like your two girls!
Yes, the long, lean legs of your daughter’s make me envious, but that adorable, quaint DOWNTOWN area is what’s REALLY got me drooling.
I hate California. I want to move to wherever it is you live!
Your girl is just so cute I couldn’t even think about the giant doggy. And could you please have her belt out another song for us??
BD looks ready to dog walk in NYC in her mod and fab outfit! And if she gets tired she can hop on her pony for a ride home…
is Bossy’s daughter wearing PAJAMA SHORTS!?!!?!?!?!
I was with #20/Kait, thinking they were tights in the first photo. Then, “wait a minute, that’s real skin!” I stand awed at the resistance to cold.
Note how long BD’s strides are, to keep up with Stella’s. And she does it.
You forgot to document the pause to pee on the grass.
Cute neighborhood!
Whoa pony!!bossy’s girls sure have long legs. Wish my beagle would walk instead of a blaze of fur whoof! Does the grey coat stroll with Stella too?
Bossy’s girls make quite a fashion statement!
You have to have legs like that to have a Great Dane, don’t you? I guess that’s why I’m doomed to have miniature poodles and goldendoodles – all of whom have good sized haunches… *sigh.

I love how the 2nd, 3rd and 6th pictures have the exact same leg movements.
My gosh – but your girl’s legs are long! And it cracks me up that she’s wearing shorts with her boots, scarf, long shirt and vest.
Oh, to have the metabolism of a tween again! 
Our Great Dane does that too! The sniffing, and then the tug-of-war battle to keep going when she wants to keep sniffing. She usually wins…
I shudder to think of the kilos of dog poop your sweetie-pie would leave on Paris sidewalks — that’s why you only see Yorkies here!
La Mom
i want one
For me to have a series of ‘owner walking similar-type dog’ photos, my pup would need to be a bull dog or bassett hound!
I will ignore the fact that bossy’s cute daughter is wearing shorts. IGNORE. LalalallalalIcan’thearyou! kind of ignore.
Nice Chevy Nova.

i don’t know whose legs are longer, BOSSY’s dane’s or BOSSY’s daughter’s.
What sweet, beautiful pictures!
If I had legs like Bossy’s daughter, I would wear shorts every day of my life. (Heck, I would wear shorts daily if I had Stella’s legs, although I would only want two of them.)
HAHAHAH. I have TWO count ‘em TWO Basset Hounds, thus I have TWO owner/dog lookalike combos, broad butts, thick thighs and all
I am amused by the puffer vest and boots paired with the short shorts.
I am so proud of your dane. She is a superb walker. My tiny mother lives by herself and has a 170 lb great dane that pulls my mom everywhere. She needs to learn a few things from your Stella.
I <3 Stella.

my first car was a Chevy Nova – I loved that car. It was a ‘76, and it was a really pretty medium blue color. Kinda sparkly.
Love the trendy white tights. Wait, what?
Wait….pajama pants girl swapped for pajama boxer shorts?
I love it.
I’ve got myself some pretty long legs and my dogs have two inch legs…no pet owner likeness like yours have.

Bossy’s Dane isn’t just great; she insists that her owners resemble her.
Gotta love Danes, they go where they wanna go and do what they wanna do.
Wait, wasn’t that a song? Fer chrissake.
Was that supposed to be How to Walk a Pony in Ten Exhibits?
Those are the greatest photos of your beautiful daughter and her miniature pony.
Great shots of the walk although not quite sure who’s taking who there..

I want to meet your dog. Oh, and the rest of the two-legged fam, too.
Bossy’s daughter is just a wishin for spring.
Sadly, I have learned that I can never have a great Dane because I cannot accomplish step 1 of walking a great dane: grow impossibly long and elegant legs.
The end.
Stella to Bossy’s Daughter: Psst, I think someone’s following us.
Yup, that’ll do it. You have my apeprciaiton.
