During the early morning hours, the streets of Trogir belong to the city’s canine residents. The dogs (known as pas in Croatian) roam the network of narrow streets in the old town, going about their business in a carefree manner. Many are leash-less and solo, out for an adventure in the ancient town.
While out photographing last week, I rounded a corner and encountered this scruffy fellow. He paused, as if I’d just caught him in the midst of a mischievous act, posed for the camera, and then trotted over to say hi, before making his rounds in the neighborhood.
Our favorite Trogir dog is a beige French Bulldog named Jacques. Every afternoon, Jacques goes for a walk along the Adriatic Sea, along with two equally-energetic puppy companions and his mistress. Jackques moves at such a breakneck pace that I’m not sure I’ll ever capture him on camera. 
I really like the orange door behind Mr. Pooch!
He looks like a friendly little chap.
From afar, he looked as though he owned the neighborhood, but he was indeed friendly as he approached me. Quite the social butterfly.
I posted about the cats of Croatia here:

Such personalities!
Enjoyed those images, Ruth; thanks for sharing! What spots did you visit in Croatia?
What an adorable little fury guy
His wild hairdo adds to his appeal for sure!
So cute!!
Seeing these dogs on the streets is a great way to start the morning – they are sure to put a smile on my face.
Ha cool dog.
Cute dog, but not as cute as our two Maltesers.
A proud parent speaks.
That dog is one of the cutest! It’s color and that of the door’s are complimenting colors hihihi.
Nessy, indeed he had spunk and a kick in his step!
