We got just over 12″of fluffy snow so far at home, and today I built an igloo for the dogs to play! And did that after shoveling – or would it be plowing – about 9″of snow from our own double driveway and two neighbors’ sidewalks. I now do believe P90X works!

We have a team for the Furry Scurry! I invite everyone to join me for a fun morning together at Wash Park! Click on the link to join or donate to the team – help spread the word! the link is: http://support.ddfl.org/goto/
Join my team, let’s have some fun! I want a lot of dogs to find their permanent home and be as happy as my dogs are.
I pledge to raise $500 as a Team, and would love for you to help: it does not matter the amount, $5 or $10 dollars can go a long way to help our furry pals in need!
Today I cried. I cried for the dogs I have photographed and that since have passed away. This past few weeks have been hard, as two amazing dogs crossed the rainbow bridge: Braxy and now Chloe. Today I also received news that Buster, the gentle giant Mastiff I photographed back in 2010 might be losing his battle with cancer. This is the tough side of being a dog photographer – the dogs I had the honor of photographing become part of my family. Much love from our pack to Bradley, Lauren, Nick, Skyla, Stephanie, and Chris.
Chloe was twelve and a half years old when I photographed her and her people last December at Red Rocks. Nick and Skyla hired me after being informed she had a tumor in her lung, and they were afraid she would not have much time for a Spring or Summer session.
I must say it was such a pleasure to photograph and play with her that morning. She was non-stop moving, running, playing with the toys, and the snow – just having an absolutely great time. How could she not? Being outside, under Colorado blue skies, eating fresh snow and yummy treats.
Her parents just told me she passed away last Monday. Goodbye, Tugboat, you were loved, spoiled and will be dearly missed.
Happy Christmas everyone, wish I could send you all a real card! Since I can’t, here is my ecard to you all! Thank you for your support and feedback, I really appreciate it!
Oh Freddie! We battled the cold, the snow, the pine cones, and the frozen lake during our session… Hope you had as much fun as I did!Have a safe trip with your Mom back to Manhattan! ♥ — with Deb Piaseczynski in Evergreen.
