Salvador Dali's dog?

I think Dali was more of an ocelot-and-anteater person than a dog person.

Ok....
After your guys weekend- ( my Monday )we will look at stopping entries I will then contact the generous Knife donors to judge their section ( Will talk to them about this ) - then we will notify the Winners.
Make use of the weekend everyone- it’s a precious time !
Take Care and have fun.

Great pics everyone, love seeing your animal best friends

Btw it'll be interesting to see how the winners are determined , it's essentially multiple GAW's in one but I'm assuming you would want to guarantee multiple winners.

 

[Campbellclanman]

There’s no guarantees with anything- if it is that one person has entered a lot and gone to the trouble of taking lots of photos- and that gives that person more chances- then they may get 2 Knives? It’s up to each individual judge whom they think has won their knife in whatever category.
There’s a few knives up for grabs so therefore I would say that there will be a few winners for sure.

Gonna be a TOUGH weekend for me so Ill post up another of the Boys and some of my favorite knives and try to do the same Sat or Sun if possible! Ill start with some of the Boys. Windsor and Little man, posted previously in my truck, are best buddies and are MY best buddies. They go everywhere with me, even work. They are crazy, adventurous, loyal and...well my everything (along with my wife lol).

How did I draw such a blank ? I feel dumb right now for that
It is a contest after all, and I've seen some really great pictures posted so I wouldn't be surprised if someone won more than one knife. There are many great folks participating who deserve it.


Might as well add some content as not to make any non entries to sort through.

All good my friend- there’s quite a few knives up for grabs.

Hey guys and girls - let’s raise a glass to our friend Bob this weekend- and spare a thought for Bobs family and especially to our friend Bob.

 

[66sprint6]

For sure!

This is The Beans.
He enjoys ocean breezes ...


... is, sadly, getting pretty old ...

... but is still never far from my wife's heels ...

... and for knife content, here is today's carry:

Great pics everyone, and nice idea for a GAW thread.
Good luck all!

Also thought I'd post this critter, who flew in my Jeep window and decided to ride on my hat in the passenger seat for a spell the other day. No kidding this guy was massive, and quite beautiful. I was happy to have him ride shotgun for a few. Took the photo for my son. He loves catch'n bugs, so long as they are released to be "free and in the wild" again.
(and no I wasn't moving when I took this! stopped in construction at the time).

Godspeed Bob, I wish we could of raised a glass together.

Duncan, thanks to you (and your many collaborators) for the generous, EPIC give-away with very interesting theme(s)!!

Not an entry (nor are other pics I hope to post over the weekend) because my pics don't really meet entry requirements. (For example, we're at that dreary time of year when it's dark outside when I leave for work and dark again when I return home, so I rarely see our dogs outside in the daylight except weekends. Thus, indoor photos! )

Here's one of our 3 dogs. This is Stella, a toy poodle, about 5 years ago, trying to "guilt" my wife into NOT leaving to visit our daughter in Spain.

But Stella has faced medical challenges all her life. She developed quite strong allergies as she matured, so we're always playing with medications and diets trying to keep her from chewing off her own feet and licking her backside raw. And over the past couple of years, she developed cataracts and glaucoma, first in one eye, then in the other. We opted for cataract surgery for the first eye, but it failed, and the painful pressure in her blind eye resulted in removal of that eye. Eventually, similar problems resulted in loss of the other eye. So here's poor old Stella Wednesday morning, wondering why I won't "let sleeping dogs lie":

I hope to feature Stella's two "siblings" interacting with knives in a sighted way in posts this weekend!

Here's a pic of a knife taken outdoors just over a week ago (thanks to mrknife for the glamorous lambsfoot!):
