I love camping. My wife and I started going on regular camping trips years ago and it has been one of the most enjoyable experiences. Often when we camp we will take one of our dogs. But sometimes the dogs are not amenable to the idea. A few years ago We attempted to take Colton, our Bernese Mountain Dog, and River, our Border Collie, on a short camping trip together. We had… Read More

We love them all so much. And they give us their whole lives. To think of having a preference for one over the other might feel like doing the others a disservice. But, I… Read More

What is there to say about the mejestiic breed of dog that is the Bernese Mountain Dog? My wife and I first learned that Bernese Mountain Dogs existed when we attended our first dog show back in 2008. Ever since we first laid eyes on them we have been fascinated by the breed. When we bought our first and current home over 15 years ago we wanted to get a Bernese Mountain… Read More

Of all the things I love about dogs it is simply watching dogs be dogs that makes me most happy. And firmly in that category is seeing what dogs and their humans are capable of together. Dogs and humans bring out the best in each other. Obedience I am always dumbfounded when I watch dogs in the obedience trials. When I see a dog sit and stay while their human just walks… Read More

Doing different kinds of things with their dogs. Everyone leading different lives with different life experiences to draw from. Learning starts with seeing. An introduction. Something you never knew. Finding out that something exists that you were hitherto… Read More

September is once of my favorite months of the year. One reason it is a favorite is that one of my favorite events of the year takes place at the end of the month. The last weekend of September features the Wine Country Circuit Dog Show.

I love dogs. It’s no secret. We have shared our lives with many dogs over the yers. Then there are the times we go out specifically seeking to put more dogs into our lives. One way we do this is by going to dog shows. There are always so many amazing and beautiful dogs there.
I always advocate for photographing what you love. One of the things I love most and that bring me the most joy are the animals I share my life with. We have been fortunate to fill our home with so many dogs and even cats over the years. They have all been a prominent part of my photography. I often take my dogs outside in the yard and play with them and… Read More

It is always a wild ride here. We have had as many of 7 dogs living in our house together. It is not always harmonious. Sometimes it is chaotic. But, over the last several years our family of dogs living with us has been shrinking. We were down to only two dogs living with us. We haven’t had only two dogs since my wife and I first started living together. As our… Read More
