We Rate Dogs

( of Antiquity)

Cave Canem sign in Pompeii: I like this dog a lot. I really like that even though this is meant to be a warning, this dog does not look that scary. He or she seems more interested in being a good dog. They aren ' t pulling at their leash, and I like that their collar has pearls on it. I rate this dog an 8 / 10
Sitting dog Mosaic, Byzantine Syria: I am a huge fan of this dog. It looks a lot like my dog( Muschka). So, I might be biased, but I also think they look like a very good dog! I really appreciate that they are seated and the mosaic is embellished with flowers. I give this dog a 10 / 10
Roman Bronze statuette: All dogs are good dogs in my opinion, but out of the dogs I am rating today, this one is my least favorite. This is not the fault of the dog; I just prefer dogs with a smooth coat. I appreciate that their eyes are uneven; I think it gives the statuette character historian.@ I ojcl rate. or this good dog a 7 / 10. g
Cave Canem sign, Pompeii: This dog looks much scarier than the other warning sign. So I will have to give them an extra point for effectiveness. I like that this dog is very pointy; both their ears and snout are very sharp. I rate this dog a 9 / 10.
