Whenever I walk the two year old German Shepherd who belongs to my son and daughter-in-law, one of the highlights for Katie is stopping by my house so that she can visit with Prime Rib (PR), my adopted rabbit.
The two of them seem to enjoy staring at each other and sniffing. Katie has never displayed any hostility towards PR and PR is not intimidated by her presence and often just ignores her.
It was an interesting challenge trying to get this shot using available light. Katie kept moving and PR often stayed in a position in which his eyes were not visible. Beautiful morning light was coming in from the right through the sliding glass doors, but it was not exactly where I would have liked it. I ended up using my Canon 24-105mm lens, a lens that I don’t use that often. I particularly like the way that I was able capture Katie’s intense focus and utter fascination with the little rabbit.

Haha..Re. rabbits name
When I got the rabbit from a friend, that was already its name. Her previous rabbit was called Pork Chop. 🙂
Oh my goodness!! Too funny!!
Epic stare-down — way to be brave, Lamb Chop!
The rabbit grew up with a dog and doesn’t seem to regard them as predators. (Things might be different if he were uncaged.)
That’s a pretty cute shot, Mike.
Thanks, Sue. It’s fascinating to watch there interactions, which are almost a daily occurrence for me.
