Sorry I did not have anything else in my pocket that could be universally recognized and easily produced by anybody looking at the photo for size comparison and sorry you find Us currency offensive. |
I don't believe that they find US currency as offensive as money is known to be a "tacky" way to show size. If nothing else was around the area to use to take a picture simply placing your hand near or on the back of the puppy could have been a way to show size. I know this is not the best way, but some find it to be tacky to place money.
