The dog seems to be identical, in reverse, with the dog in the foreground of the painting The Sermon on the Mount, datable to around 1605.  The long-haired dog on the verso of a drawing of a cow in Frankfurt, mentioned in the previous entry, has also been used in that painting, in the right middle ground.  Clearly, they are studies of the same dog. [Magnusson, Dutch Drawings no. 39]
