Thank you @Lellabelle-- and yes, the pink Cosmo CSGM is lovely. I have seen it IRL in @Karenska's wonderful collex!Oh, thank you for posting these, ‘Nola. A welcome diversion!
Here‘s Kluska in Cosmographia. Web pic, as I don’t own this. Perhaps someone will show us one tomorrow?

View attachment 5699437I actually really like this pink colourway. I don’t recall seeing it, but it’s really pretty. Edited to add: that’s probably because this was a CSGM.
I couldn’t find one on Voitures exquises.
Your new costumes is beautiful on you @LKBNOLA. The soft colour palette is so pretty, and the design is so versatile in your different ties.
Such beautiful detailed closeups @lanit! I am happy to see Jardin de Metamorphoses-- I am twins and it doesn't make an appearance often enough!
Kluska + Huskies = and Guepards is so beautiful. Kluska spotting is like the monkey search @lanit!Thanks @Snausages abd @LKBNOLA !
I’m more of a pup lover these days though I loved my beautiful Burmese cat during my college years. Detail of huskies from LVdGN, I do love Jan Batjlik’s signature pup in his scarf designs (like searching for Annie Faivres monkey icon) and Dallet’s Guepards, for Year of the Cat.

I did not know the origin of the cocker name @Snausages-- yet another snippet of TPF scarf-related info into the database! Thank you for the examples-- all lovely-- and for the inspiration on dog-related accoutrements (like collars!).Welcome to Day 3 of the Paws for Thought theme week! Today we're focusing on dogs*! Puppers. Doggos. Pooches. Hounds. Man’s best friend. The largest registry of dog breeds identifies 300+ internationally-accepted breeds. The AKC breaks these down into seven groupings, organized by the original work that each breed was developed to do: Sporting, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy, Non-Sporting, and Herding.
If you've known me for longer than a nanosecond, you know I'm crazy about my pups! My mom grew up with a cocker spaniel, so I grew up with a cocker spaniel, and since 1996 I've owned 7 and fostered 15 cocker spaniels. Spaniels don't appear much on Hermes scarves and when they do I'm a fan. I've got two colorways of Carl de Parcevaux's Chiens au Rapport which features four life-like drawings of field spaniels with their masters' hunted fowl (cocker spaniels are so named for specializing in retrieving fallen woodcocks), and two formats of Virginie Jamin's Colliers et Chiens (an evolution of Colliers de Chien, which I also have in two formats). Most recently Dimitri Rybaltchenko's Sur Mon Nuage includes his cocker spaniel Misty playing with a ball - looking an awful lot like my Elsa chasing Maple chasing a ball.

And, as so many have noted Jan Bajtlik usually finds some way to work in his Corgi Kluska (Polish for "Noodle", the name of my second cocker!). While Kluska is often easy to spot, sometimes she's integrated so well she's hard to find!
And so, my Silken Sisters and Brothers, I ask you to show me your pups! Bonus points for showing your real life doggaroonis!
(*Have no fear – wild canines will be featured later this week! And remember, any SOTD is on-theme!)
Thank you @Cookiefiend!Awesome post Fifi - these are all lovely… but my eyes are poppin’ with that hem on LMdC!!
Awwwwwwww kitties, and ZOMG that necklace with Tapis!
Perfection with that sweater!
Watership Down is a favorite of mine, I hope you love it too!
❤️❤️❤️
I’m so glad he’s doing well.
Sending you both hugs, and Coco sends smooches.
Gorgeous!
Thank you sweetheart!

A very big dog! Another lovely and totally different cw...so pretty @Croisette7.
We have that saying also! I hope that yo recover very quickly @Coco2606. H on the bEach may just be giving Eposition Universelle a run for the money on most details on a silk!Terrible flu here. In french we use to say "malade comme un chien "(sick like a dog). Anyway, those playing on the beach View attachment 5699737in Villa Borghese's gardens seem healty !View attachment 5699736View attachment 5699738View attachment 5699740
What an amazing blue cw @EtsyBoss! And your girl is a total love...SOTD for me is Peuple Du Vent which is full of all range of animal friends, mostly furry though some feathered and some scaled. I could not find a bunny. My favorites on it today are a dog, an organ grinder / working monkey (Monkeys!), and a cat.
My newfie briefly joined me in my office this morning where I have the fireplace cranked because it's such a cold day here. She pressed her nose against the cold window as long as possible before she gave up after about 2 minutes and requested an 'out' to lounge on the freezing cold concrete instead. Thank you for sharing your *gorgeous* colorway of Early America @Croisette7! I always love seeing the girl riding the giant fluffy dog along the border. Newfies must be the dog featured on Early America. It makes me giggle recollecting all the many people who have commented about how you could 'put a saddle on that one!' Newfies are working dogs, bred to rescue people who fell overboard boats in the icy water surrounding Newfoundland, Canada.
And @Snausages! Your field spaniel scarf is another design I always enjoy seeing. My doggo before my newfies was an all black field spaniel. Happy memories!

Nothing beats these beautiful scenes @Croisette7...
Thank you @Living.la.vida.fifi!All wonderful examples… Love that Kluska on Costumes and how you highlighted him
Lovely scarf and lovely Coco-- such a sweet face @Cookiefiend.It’s true - I love dogs.
I grew up with cats (parakeets, raccoons, Guinea pigs, and hamsters have all been pets), as my father didn’t like dogs, and I love cats too - but dogs? I just love them - but especially my own Coco.

Lots of puppers on today’s scarf - Venerie des Princes - I love the matte blanc on the running border of dogs.

Well, if you find CSGMs that look as amazing on you as this one you certainly are going to be in trouble @Nomad! This is my "year of the CSGM" as @Lellabelle put it-- filling in some old beauties from before I collected this format. So easy to wear and too beautiful for resistance in some cases...Sotd. I’m not sure I like a new realization I made today due to the fact that it now means I could technically buy more csgms because I could wear them more often over all my chunky sweaters. Realization is that I can wear csgms just as accessories thrown over a sweater/coat and don’t have to be “styled” like a 90 or even care so much about colors by my face complimenting my complexion. So…..basically I am TOTALLY screwed now

They are so so sweet @Living.la.vida.fifi -- I know Heidi is keeping an eye on things from over the Rainbow Bridge...And, here is my darling Gentleman Dog… my dear Luke

And, here is my SOTD! A much awaited scarf mail! Quadrige giant triangle

I believe they are kindred @EtsyBoss-- they filled my heart and were the most fun and loving bonded pair we've ever had! There's a reason they call Porties "velcro" dogs. They are like Peter Pan's shadow after Wendy sewed it on...What an adorable pair of puppers LKB! Kindred spirits with newfies I do believe. I just want to hug them both!
Ike! What a fantastic name! He looks like he could totally take on the Show-- especially if yo loan him your red scarf @hermesguy...After 10 days toiling over an appeallate brief and further deteriorating my eyesight reading a voluminous record, I was seeing red, and so I wear it. Mediterrane, 90 cm with a red contrast hem. No canines et carré in my collex, and no bunnies or other mammals other than those that Oliver may have stashed in Texas Wildlife.
From I friend, I understand a Welsh Terrier was in the Westminster Dog Show. My boy Ike is perpetually miffed that he never got to play in the big leagues, but the food's better here, and he's got endless venues in which to snooze or survey his domain.
