Sophie & Oscar

Sophie and Oscar are the recent additions to Oreo and Loki‘s pack, whose sweet brother Simon passed away this year. They have filled the house again with the happy pitter-patter of little paws and jingling dog collars. Both rescues about a year old, they love playing with each other and with Loki, a ragdoll cat who’s so big now from the last time I saw him as a kitten! I had so much fun meeting these sweet babies. Sophie is a wonderful puppy, calm and affectionate and always ready to snuggle. Oscar has two speeds: zero and 60! He’s either bouncing around initiating play or chewing enthusiastically on his bone, or completely flopped out and ready for a nap.

What a fall season this is turning out to be – every pup I’ve met I wanted to sneak home for myself! Aren’t these guys the cutest? (Sophie is on the left, Oreo the big sister in the middle, and leggy Oscar on the right.)

Dallas

Dallas is a handsome four-year-old standard poodle who was surrendered to Atlanta Pet Rescue & Adoption when his owner didn’t want to pay to treat his broken leg. He was just a puppy when he arrived there, and his mom took him in as a temporary foster. Well…once you see his photos you’ll understand how he went from being a temporary addition to a permanent one in no time at all! Dallas is the poster boy for how ridiculously perfect shelter dogs can be – he’s great with people and other dogs and is incredibly well-mannered in the house.

He was also a complete ham for the camera with big brown eyes that just draw you in. There were so many sides to his personality – one minute he was bounding across a field chasing his ball, then flopped out on the bed and asking for a tummy rub. And apparently he’s also been working on his modeling skills – at one point during the session we plopped him in a chair and he struck three different poses all on his own, and held each of them for an incredible amount of time. What a ham!!

Laine Sweezey - Looking at your photos never ceases to amaze me. You are both talented and gifted. This dog is surely the reincarnation of a model! The shot of him going up in the air after a ball is remarkable! HAH, I wish the fool who gave that dog up could see these photos!!

Kelly Rousey - Leesia,

Thank you so much for capturing Dal’s true spirit. I particularly love the one of him in full repose on the bed.

Chloe

I can’t believe how much little Chloe has grown! I photographed her when she was four months old, again when she was one – and now she’s already three years old, and still sweet and loving as ever. She’s the perfect blend of playful and calm, dancing for treats and fetching her mini tennis ball, and then crashing hard on the couch for a snooze next to her mama.

Thanks, Erica and Chloe, for another fantastic session!
