Canines in Colombia – Romancing the Bone

April 8, 2014 by Cathy Arkle 17 Comments

Dogs in Colombia SA | cathy nelson arkle

I didn’t set out to take photos of dogs in Colombia. It just happened…everywhere. These photos of dogs tell a story that my words cannot. So I will let them show you their tale.

    Reminds me of the stay dogs in Italy…some of them look so sad! You can always see it in their eyes and you captured it in many of these shots. Great photos, as always, Cathy. Looking forward to your next post!

    They do tell a story. The dogs make the pace look laid back in Colombia. Look forward to more of your photos.

      I think dogs always remind us to slow down and enjoy the simple things in life. A message I am still trying to learn.

    Love the contrasting colors of the green door, black dog. Tickles me to see his pink tongue sticking out. Great shots.

    Lol… I always end up taking photos of cats when we’re out and about… Some of these dogs looks so sad (and some scary too) and I always wonder what their story would be…

      All of the dogs seemed to be well fed, so I know someone was looking out for them. I usually take pictures of cats as well, but in Colombia, dogs rule.

    Great dog shots, but the backgrounds are really interesting, too. Thanks for sharing.

    I must get out of town and see some dogs! I speak their language so borders (or Border Collies) are no obstacle. GREG

    How did I miss this post? I love these! I took some of dogs in Chiapas and Guatemala, but I took 250 cat shots in Morocco! Some of these shots of yours are priceless! My fave is the dog on the doorstep with his left foot hanging down and tongue out! 🙂

      I saw tons of cats in Italy as well. In Colombia there seemed to be dogs on the streets everywhere. I couldn’t tell if someone owned half of them or not. They all looked really well fed so I am guessing someone was looking after them.

    Love the photos! You have a way with dogs – they speak to your camera. This should be a book!

      Thanks John, I was captivated by the dogs of Colombia. They were everywhere and just seemed happy to pose, well, except the dog protecting the plantains!

    […] Visiting Colombia was the country we were most pleasantly surprised how much we loved it. I look forward to returning there someday. Read about eating ants and the interesting markets in Colombia here, or the colorful town of Guatape, and see the dogs in Colombia here. […]
