Dagny

Dagny is a 10-year-old terrier mix who is, as her mom calls her, the cutest little nugget! She has more expressions than I can count. One minute she looks like a wise old man who could solve all the problems of life with her advice, the next she’s a classic terrier driven to get at that treat no matter what you have planned instead. Another moment later she’ll look as goofy and silly as a baby puppy playing with her toys, and then she morphs into a total couch potato slash lovebug.

I love her unique look – I’m always a sucker for the short legs! Best guesses for her mix: some wire-haired dachshund, maybe a little beagle…whatever it is, it’s perfect! Don’t you just love mutts?!

Heather, Mr. K., Pudley, & Nibbles

These four adorable rescue Scotties are one of the cutest crews you’ll ever meet – so cute they’ve amassed their own fan club through the wonderful blog Scottie Mom! When I first arrived, I thought I was at the wrong house because I didn’t hear a peep when I knocked. But it turns out these four are really just that laid-back. (I know, I’m jealous too!)

Eleven-year-old Heather is the leader of the pack and her main goal in life is to seek out treats, and when she’s satisfied there aren’t any eluding her, she’ll settle down in her favorite corner (she has one in each room of the house). Mr. K is nine years old and of course he loves treats, but he also loves the ball. He’s quite the athlete, along with Pudley, who just joined the family this year with his littermate Nibbles.

It was so fun to see these four together. Even though Pudley and Nibbles are new to the family, they’re finding their places well and it is wonderful to see such a harmonious pack. Their amazing mama takes incredible care of them and is such a great advocate for rescue – many people assume if they want a certain breed that rescuing isn’t an option, but that’s rarely the case. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a pup who had a turn of bad luck end up hitting the jackpot, and they certainly have with the Scottie Mom!

Butters

Words cannot express how adorable Butters the Basset Hound is, so I’m glad I have the photos to prove it! He turns heads everywhere he goes and the compliments are endless – but he doesn’t let that go to his head. He’s as sweet and as laid-back as can be, quiet and unassuming and just wants to be where everyone else is. (Just like the South Park character who inspired his name.)

I felt like I could hear Butters’ Eeyore-like voice while I was photographing him – can you hear it too when you look at his photos? I love this guy!
