Wow, neat photo!  You're right--the little boy does look pretty disgruntled!   :)

I think they both look dirty- like they were playing in the mud and the doggy got more mud than the little boy.  ;D

I LOVE that photo...and that the child looks so suspicious.  Bet he's been knocked down a time or two by that giant head!!
