I had a really fun morning with sweet (almost) year-old Max, his min pin Darth, and his mom & dad.

Max was in quite the good mood

I spent a recent afternoon in a room full of yorkies, many of whom enjoyed running into my lap as I photographed their friends. The party was held at New York Dog Nanny, so we also had some other breeds who were being boarded there. Many thanks to Erika of The Pup Diary for hosting this fun party.

I spent a fun afternoon with Alex and his kitties, Sammy and Mia.

Alex enjoys reading to Sammy

Sammy was definitely excited to learn about tractors

He wasn’t always sure what to make of the attention from Alex

I photographed a fun event this week for Unleashed, a wonderful program for middle school girls that involves them in the process of puppy rescue. Bill Berloni, animal trainer of Theatrical Animals, came to speak to the girls about interacting with dogs. Bill finds and trains animals for theater, film, and television. My favorite part about his company is that all animals come from shelters and rescue leagues. He brought Mikey, understudy for Sandy in Annie the Musical. I happened to have seen the show the week prior where Mikey was on that day! This workshop was such a treat for the girls, and for me and the other adults too!

I’m quite sure the girls’ favorite part of the afternoon was having the chance to pet sweet Mikey.

I helped my sister and her husband again last year for their holiday card. I’m always a fan of something that will stand out on a wall full of cards, so I suggested a chicken hat. They decided to dress in concert black for the shoot.

Their final choice was the one with just Lucy (on the left). While Cooper (on right) was visiting, I thought it was only fair that he be included in the dress-up fun.

What fun holiday card ideas have you seen? I’d love to hear!

We had a beautiful day to explore Bryant Park and the surrounding area.

We started out at the majestic Grand Central Terminal

My sister’s collie, Cassie, has developed degenerative myelopathy over the past year, which is similar to ALS in humans. With her back legs losing functionality, it was getting more difficult to move around the house and farm. Enter in the amazing company of Eddie’s Wheels: creator of various carts to assist disabled dogs. Cassie now has a custom-made cart that allows her to run around outside and play with the other dogs.
