Taking the dogs bowhunting

I thought these photos of dogs with their masters out bowhunting were cute and amusing. That is all.

The photos reminded me of old paintings of hunting dogs with their masters...

Like this one below. In centuries past portraits like that were made and sent as gifts to potential grooms / brides. Basically an older version of personals websites. The goal was to try and portray a person's hobbies and personality within a painting, so that potential spouses would better understand who they might be marrying. The lady below evidently liked dogs and preferred to shoot bows. Men who preferred the company of cats and liked to shoot rifles or spearhunt, well, they need not apply.
