One of my earliest fascinations with dog breeds focused on what we probably think of mostly as cold weather type dogs, Dogs with thick fluffy fur to protect them from the elements. This fascination grew stronger when I was first introduced to Alaskan Malamutes. I love that they are a large breed of dog and they have that thick luscious fur. It just makes me want to snuggle up to them to… Read More
I think if anyone thinks of dogs show and show dogs and the people who compete in these events we think of dapper and super pretty dolled up dogs. Fine suits. Well groomed dogs. Perfect conditions. Beautiful setting. Well after watching a lot of dog shows I am here to tell you that conformation events at dog shows can get real hard core sometimes. I love outdoor conditions for photography. I think… Read More
I love watching dogs do things that only dogs can do. Running through an agility course at warp speed is right up there. It is especially cool for me when I see a type of dog I don’t normally think of as an agility dog running the course. Of course any dog who has worked at it and been trained can run an agility course, but I bet we all have a… Read More
Dogs love to have fun. Fun time for some dogs includes running the agility course at dog shows. I am always amazed at how well some dogs sit and wait patiently. Some dogs just sit wand wait for their handler to give them the que that it is time to take off. Then it is time to run and fly through the obstacles. But until then it is calm and relaxed. Hard… Read More
This photo is of an Afghan Hound whose coat color is black. I thought that was the perfect opportunity to convert the image to black and white to really make the dog stand out. The black and white present I chose to use really created a pop for the dog in the image. The preset rendered almost the entire background white with just a bit of detail remaining. And the dog which… Read More
This photo is a little different than most dog photos I share. It is especially different from most dog show photos I share. I am usually focused on the dogs. I want to isolate and showcase the dogs. That is my singular focus. When I am sharing photos of dogs at dog shows I usually don’t show any aspect of the human at the other end of the leash if I can… Read More
Comet has become quite the fixture at our house. He has been a long term foster at our house. At this point in time it seems he will live his entire life with us. He is a pretty good dog, but has his issues. He doesn’t always get along with other dogs. At least he doesn’t get along with a couple of the dogs that live with us. This can present challenges….

It is so funny to look back at photos from just a couple of years ago and seeing how fast our dog Colton ahs grown up. In this photo he is a small Bernese Mountain Dog puppy bouncing around playing with our white Siberian Husky, Mojo. These days he dwarfs Mojo as he is around 100 lbs. and Mojo weighs in at a whopping 40 lbs. They still get along well and… Read More
How It Ended The last two years with Brynn have been hard. Harder for us than I think they were for her in many ways. She developed a back issue that that severely limited her strength and coordination in the rear of her body. The initial fear was that this was a severe degenerative disease. Fortunately this turned out not to be the case. Around the same time she developed her onset… Read More
We enjoy taking our dogs out whenever we can. This obviously includes going for walks. When we can we will take multipole dogs with us. As someone who is obsessed with both photography and dogs I always try to make this equally about photography as it is about out dogs. This local park is a perfect place for both dog walks and photography. There is a nice flat path to walk on…. Read More
