Isn't that pic from one of the issues of Superboy (the Kon-El era) when Kon went through Hypertime, and ended up in Silver Age Smallville?

Yep, that is indeed a picture of Kal-El, the Silver Age Superboy and Krypto the Superdog! They live, thanks to the wonders of hypertime. Now all we need to do is find some way to link their universe to that of the Legion and we can have the -real- Superboy back!  :D

 Hehe. God bless Hypertime. :p

One question, isn't krypto part of the current continuity of Superman? If he is, when did he come around?

Now I may be wrong on this, but as far as I know, Krypto is a part of this continuity.  However, he is Bibbo's dog.

In The Death and Life of Superman, after Superman dies, Bibbo dons a Superman T-shirt and is determined to step up to the plate and fill in Superman's shoes. When he goes outside the bar, there on the dock, an old lady throws a bag full of puppies into the bay. Bibbo being the hero, he jumps in to save them. However, all the puppies died except one. It was a little white puppy. He named it Krypton, after Superman's home planet. When he went to have the tag made, he only got six letters. Those being K-R-Y-P-T-O. He would have to pay extra to get the N added. Bibbo wasn't going to pay extra, so he allowed the dog's name to be Krypto. Krypto resides in Suicide Slum at the Ace O' Clubs bar with Bibbo.

There is a current Krypto, who came from a computer generated "Krypton" that was actually created by Brianiac to trap Superman in the Phantom Zone.  He's been recently seen in both the new Teen Titans and Superman/Batman.  

Don't try to pet him while he's guarding the Fortress of Solitude, though -- even Superman says that Krypto "hates EVERYONE".  This is NOT the cuddly white retriever you knew from old Superboy adventures -- this Krypto must be part Kryptonian pit bull.   :shock:

As dto explains above, the answer is "yes" and he first showed up in the Return to Krypton storyline.  He's been in a few scattered issues since then, mostly those written by Jeph Loeb.

One way to differentiate between the original Krypto and his modern incarnation is that the new one has an S shield dog tag, which the original never had:
