Hari

SDP  1-10-12
As soon as I saw this guy sitting outside Whole Foods in downtown Sarasota I had to meet him.  Look at that face...those droopy jowls...blood shot eye and unusual combination of colors!   Adorable.   His name is Hari and he's a 15-month-old English setter with a very sweet demeanor  -- such a gentleman.  I've encountered a lot of Irish setters, but never an English setter.  I must say, he's representing his breed well.  He just moved here from St. Pete (with his mom, Rosemary) and I think he'll fit in quite nicely in this dog friendly town.  During my brief meet-and-greet, three other people came up to say hello.  Welcome!

That is the coolest looking dog I've ever seen! I love his paws! And what an expression. He looks like he should be smoking a pipe and saying "Cheerio old chap."

He has such a nice face. He does look like a refined dog. I've never seen one with such a mix of color.

Oh, I'd say Hari is a charmer for sure. What a beautiful dog!

How cute is he?! Such a serious face for a young dog!

Great looking dog, and such great coloring. I never heard of English setters.

What an outstanding dog, SRQ. Of course, he can't hold a candle to my late but loved English Springer Spaniel (Toby), but he can give other dogs a good run for second place.
