Three-year-old Puppy

We brought Joey to this huge park this weekend and met lots of dogs and their humans (only one humping incident - yea!) Everyone asked us if he was a puppy. We thought this was strange. We chalked this up to his hair - which is making his head and paws look cartoonishly large compared to his body. To us he just looks like Joey. I guess I would rather have a dog that looks like a puppy, and acts like a dog, than an ugly old-looking puppy. Are there ugly old-looking puppies? Here is our most puppy-ish picture, what do you think?
