Murphy, Calypso, Yogi & Yanni

Murphy is a handsome one-year-old sheltie and Calypso is a lovely three-year-old border collie mix. Yogi and Yanni are the new additions to the family, a pair of ridiculously soft ragdoll brothers who were about 12 weeks old when I met them. Between these four, there’s never a dull moment!

Tucker & Soxy

Tucker is a two-year-old Yorkie with oversized ears and a penchant for squeaky toys, while Soxy is a five-year-old Chihuahua mix who I was warned wasn’t photogenic…but that couldn’t have been further from the truth! She reminded me so much of our late Sienna, with her bouncy ears and diva personality. (She won’t sit on a flat carpeted floor unless it has a rug or pillow for her tush!)

I had so much fun with these two – both have the cutest head tilt and incredibly expressive eyes AND ears. Aren’t they the cutest?

Maggie & Zara

Maggie just turned seven years old this week, and we celebrated with a photo shoot! (Her sister Zara, a Maine Coon, deigned to participate as well.) She’s a beautiful Golden Retriever with the fluffiest coat I’ve ever felt, and she’s got that wonderful personality her breed is known for – friendly and happy-go-lucky. Her mom said she’s heard Goldens called the dolphins of the dog world, which I hadn’t heard before and love it. It’s a perfect description.

Maggie loves to play fetch in the backyard, but she loves her family and napping equally as much! She isn’t as interested in Zara, who is an inquisitive, petite girl who followed us around curiously while we dangled treats for Maggie and cooed her name. She thought we were crazy until her toy came out, and then she was more than happy to show off too!
