Nice dog and great photograph.
Is that a professional studio photo or did you take it yourself?
What breed is Dunder?

Thats taken in a studio.
Dunder is a Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen (french)
I will use him to follow and bark at roedeer, hare and fox. He is not two years yet so I havent hunted so much with him.

Good idea to get a great studio photograph of your dog.
I think I will need to try to organise one too. My GSP "Siegfred" is starting to get battle scarred. Not from fights with other dogs or game, just from an active life.
First a car accident where he was very lucky. A couple of minor operations to remove lumps. And he absolutely loves to hurdle fences. Including barb wire fences. A couple of new scars that way. I am worried one day he won't make the fence. I rescued a neighbours dog - a greyhound - that was hooked on one of our adjoining fences on the rear stomach/hips. This dog dig recover, but the poor thing would have been touching an electric wire until he scratched it down. Plus his organs in the hips would have been dangerously constricted. The barbs were only shallow too as a dog can be disembowelled this way.
Great idea to get some really good photographs to remember your hound by in the future.

I must do a confesion
We took our children to the studio and let our dogs be with (one of them is no longer alive). But as you say it's a great memory and I will post some more photos frm the occasion in some short future.

Great photos Christer - all of them
That Dunder looks like he would be a handful. I really like the small dogs, though I don't have one at the moment.

Very nice photos Christer nice dog as well. I will see if I can dig out some pics of my old Stafforshire Terrier. He was 6 years old when he tried to kill one of those Mozambique spitting cobras hiding behind our deep freeze on our plot. I chased him out of my room as he was sick and throwing up like he had something bad to eat.
I found him on the lawn the next day totally paralized he couldn't even open his eyelids and was breathing very heavily and slow. It was a hour to the vet and I decided that he was too far down so I had to shoot him 
We foud the snake in the afternoon he was almost 2 meters now that is big for a cobra Upon inspection I found two bite marks from the snake. Bitten from a snake that size I was surprized that he made morning. He was a great companion I even have his bushbuck that he caught's horns on the wall at hom it was a nice 13 1/2" and it's his trophy and my remeberance of him. He was a great dog I'm getting soppy writting all this down must stop now.
