Raja summer of 1997 at age 4 months, a field in the middle of Canada. “Don’t just stand there with that shiny thing, let’s go for a walk run.!” Time has flown by, its hard to believe March is here already. The past year saw a lot of changes for us and we are forging …

Foster Updates!
Coming up on the end of the year and we have a couple of foster updates…. Kobe is doing great in his new home and adores his human brother. His quirky antics have his family completely smitten with Kobe, whom we had the opportunity to visit with last week. Of course Kobe is just as …

A Smile For The Weekend
I just want to say a big thank you to everyone for all the kind comments on my ramblings about loving and loss. Everyone who has loved someone (dog or human) and gone through the pain of losing them, knows exactly how I feel…both are a universal experience. I didn’t mean to wallow, and I …
Lasting Love
It is hard to believe a year ago, today, we lost Kona to cancer. Not a day goes by that I don’t remember him in some little way and with a smile. A lot of people ask us why we haven’t adopted another dog into our lives yet. Healing takes time. Some heal quickly, or …

Pinup Pups-Part 4
This session photographing for the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue‘s calendar was a big challenge…trying to get a decent frame of 4 Goldens!

My second session photographing for the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue‘s calendar was with a super cute rescue named, Sweetness.

Pinup Pups-Part 1
This year I was asked to be the photographer for the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue‘s calendar.

Foster Kobe-Day 79
Some weekend fun with Kobe…. Hanging out watching the neighborhood parrots squawking. “Holy, moly those parrots are loud!” “Mmmm, tiny tomatoes were very yummy! Maybe if I sit here looking cute, I’ll get some more.” (Kobe LOVES tomatoes…and strawberries and beans.) Hope everyone is having a GReat weekend! Get out there with your pups and …
Foster Kobe-Day 77
Kobe is extremely comfortable around the house, but he is still working on expanding his boundaries outside. We’ve found he enjoys going in the car to places like the pet store for shopping trips and walking down urban areas. As for walking around the neighborhood… “Go on without me. I’ll just sit here and keep …
