I love lugubrious dog faces. And I would love your dog's. (seven)

That's five. Oh, wait--that's six, if I say "chained_bear's dog."

2 months ago chained_bear said:

Well, I'm going to talk about my dog so she'll have seven as well. My dog is a hound dog. She has a lugubrious expression, even when she's happy.

OK, now he has seven.

That your dog deserves two comments? Well, doesn't every dog? :-)

c_b, spaniel sounds all spangly to me.

... oh... What were you saying?

I didn't say my dog looks lugubrious!

I think Cocker spaniels do look kind of mournful. Not as mournful as, say, Bassett hounds (mine is not a Bassett though).

Does anyone else think spaniel is a good-mouthfeel word?

Really? I wouldn't have thought it possible for an English cocker spaniel to look lugubrious. :-)

2 months ago Prolagus said:

My dog, an English cocker spaniel, would deserve two comments as well.

2 months ago reesetee said:

Because your dog is especially lugubrious? :-)

Why did I say the same thing twice?

This is the exact word to describe my dog's expression.

Lugubrious describes, at any given moment, the facial expression of my hound dog.

Your mind oozes glumness. What word could better describe your emotion?
