"Isn't that the dog in the blog?"

Cheryl was walking Maggie in our neighborhood this morning when she heard a woman ask a man in English, "Isn't that the dog in the blog?" The questioner turned out to be a nice English lady named Karen from Cheshire who was in Venice with her husband Gil. The couple visit Venice every year and organized their current trip with the help of our travel-planning site, Venice for Visitors.
Karen and Gil showed Cheryl a photo of their own 10-year-old dog, Colin, and they posed with Maggie for the photo above (which we're publishing with their consent).
If you're in Venice and see a shaggy-looking Bearded Collie walking on a leash, we hope you'll ask, "Is that Maggie?" Maggie loves being a celebrity, and we're grateful for any secondhand attention that comes our way.
Your dog is a cutie.
