For all of her issues, Iris is actually really good about walking in a city. Back when I was doing a lot of night photography in Boston for the virtual tour company, Iris and I did a lot of city walking. She relaxed about negotiating crowds and not at all phased by city sounds and smells. She greeted everyone she met very politely (something about her seems to attract attention. Maybe because she's a merle? Everyone asks to pet her). The only trick is that I do have to cross the street to avoid sharing the sidewalk with another dog. Because I was photographing storefronts, even that wasn't too much of an issue. We really only encountered a few other dogs when passing through more residential areas. Other than that, she handles cities like a champ.

I thought it would be fun to take Iris into downtown Lowell for some photos. She loves getting to explore new places. She was in her element, and she even got to stop and visit with a group of elderly women sitting on a park bench. I think Iris made their day and Iris, of course, was thrilled to be the center of attention.

She was less excited about having her photo taken. Definitely not as much fun as walking! You can tell because she started making funny faces at the camera. Just to make her point.

REALLY love that first picture! Cool.
It definately could be the merle thing. Everyone loves Legend but if she were black and white probably no one would look twice.
