This morning I photographed two very different stray dogs at PAWS. The first was a huge black Shepherd mix called Saffron. She was as sweet and mellow as can be, but in need of a good bath and grooming. I really had the urge to take her home with me; because of COURSE I need a jumbo-sized black dog to go with my other three! I always seem to be a sucker for the old dogs.
The second dog reminded me a lot of my girl Trixie; she was a black and white pointer. Her name was Tulip, and she seemed very worried and “talked” a lot. She was also very ball-motivated, however, which made for some great photographs! I had a hard time choosing only 3 for Petfinder, but I am pretty sure her family will be coming for her soon, if they haven’t already. This dog was obviously well cared-for, with a silky coat and trimmed nails.
I hope both these sweet gals have happy endings!
