the dog is not impressed
Although my study never made it into Scientific American, years of research had convinced me that the Great Dane, or Deutsche Dogge, if you prefer, has only two facial expressions; either they look profoundly noble, or they lean towards loonily goofy. One cannot be certain which of those is actually the default Great Dane setting, because they use them with equal frequency.
Please imagine my shock therefore, on seeing this image: a photograph which appears to totally disprove my thesis. Here we see a subject who is obviously attempting the characteristic regal gravitas, and yet, disconcertingly, has somehow managed more than a mere soupçon of doofus clown face. The dog is not impressed, we however, are absolutely flabbergasted.
So dawns the era of the querulous Great Dane.
