We’ve been keeping pretty busy with adoptables lately…and as much as I love photographing dogs, I’d much rather photograph them in happy homes! Every time we photograph a dog in need of a loving home, I ask myself, “why?” “Why have these dogs been abandoned?” “Why have these dogs not been adopted?” It’s heartbreaking! Until…you meet them! They have such a spirit about them…a spirit that allows them to overcome the unfortunate situation they are in. It is amazing that they can look so happy and run around as if it was their greatest day, ever!
Meet this happy bunch from Stratford Animal Control.

Since John and I are HUGE supporters of animals rescue, we find it only fitting that we give back by volunteering our photography skills to pups in need! We are members of an organization called HeARTs Speak. HeARTs Speak is comprised of all sorts of wonderful animal artists, photographers, writers, and ambassadors who give back with their skills to shelters, and rescue organizations!!! This time we met Riley and Libby (short for Liberty, since she was sprung from a kill-shelter on the 4th of July!) Both Riley and Libby are available through Karuna Bully Recsue.
Libby is a petite little girl! If you are looking for a small dog…but not a “small” dog, Libby is your girl!!! She is so unbelievably gorgeous…and just as sweet as can be!
Libby
Riley is a Pitty Mix (I think he may be part Plot Hound)….he has the most awesome tiger stripes!!! His brindle coat is so gorgeous!!! Riley is such a sweetheart…he is super mellow, and walks great on a leash! He would make an awesome hiking partner! Please share his photo, and contact Karuna Bully Rescue if you like to adopt either Libby or Riley. You will not be disappointed!

OK, so I guess going to Arizona in June wasn’t the smartest idea!!! I knew it would be warm….but it was HOT – sweltering HOT!!! But you know, even though it was HOT, it was still a dry heat and that beats the humidity in Connecticut any day!
While we were in Sedona, we met a beautiful Yellow Lab/Shepherd/Chow mix named “Yellowstone”. What a beautiful girl!!! Yellowstone will be 15 years old in September!!! She has a little bit of arthritis, so her family takes her out in her own little buggy so she can still travel and be with them on vacations! Isn’t that great!!!
Sedona is very pet friendly town…lots of restaurants and hotels allow your furry friend to stay. And how about those hiking trails!??? Maybe someday we’ll bring our critters with us!
For now, enjoy some of our travel photos of of Sedona, as well as the beautiful girl named, Yellowstone!!

I’m just getting around to blogging about this session now…This puppy-session was crazy fun! Lucy the Yellow Lab was adorable! She was unlike any puppy I’ve worked with…she was actually quite cooperative! She sat when she was asked, she looked cute (without even being asked..haha!!) she was just all around fun, fun, fun! And her mom and dad were awesome too! I just love puppy sessions…If you’re thinking about a puppy session, don’t wait too long…they grow up so fast!!!
