This is Max the Schipperke.
Schipperkes are a Belgium breed, also known as "little black devils", and they generally live up to that name. They're a big dog in a little package, curious, independent and fearless.
In this pic he's about 6 months old. We had to make a visit to the vet for a little eye infection, and since I have about an hour commute to work, he spent the day with me at the office.
On the way in he rode like a normal dog, sitting on the center console, but apparently the view from there didn't suit him so on the way home he jumped up on the seat back, and there he rode for the entire trip home.
It doesn't look all that comfortable to me, be he seemed to like it.
