Peter Frampton

Monday, February 8, 2010

I have the perfect pick-me-up for a sleepy Monday morning — 14-week-old Goldendoodle Peter Frampton! His mom and dad waited over three years to get a dog until they had a house and yard, and now they have a gorgeous home and the perfect pup to chew it up and christen it with potty accidents. :p But he is doing famously — he’s picking up the housebreaking idea quickly, and doing a good job of chewing mainly his toys instead of the furniture! He even has wonderful door-greeting skills (can you sense my jealousy??) — not a peep when I walked in the door, just a polite sniff and then he glued himself back to his mom’s leg.

Not that I need to say it, but aren’t puppies just the best?!

One of my favorite things was the criss-crossed fur on his tail:

Cooper

Wednesday, February 3, 2010

I’m sure some of you will remember Cooper, who has had two previous puppy package sessions featured on the blog! He now a whole year old and handsome as ever — he’s a Shaded English Cream Dachshund (which to me look like tiny golden retrievers). His very first session at 12 weeks old is here, and his awkward teenage years were documented here. I have had so much fun watching him grow up — thank you, Tori and Phillip, for such a fun series of sessions!

I’ll let the images speak for themselves — no words can describe how utterly adorable this little guy is…

Mia

Monday, February 1, 2010

Mia is a beautiful liver-colored 10-year-old pit bull who had an emergency session with me last week. Unfortunately, sweet Mia had an accident that caused severe damage to her spinal cord, and she can no longer stand or walk. But as a testament to the amazing spirit of dogs, upon meeting her, you would never know anything was wrong except that she couldn’t run to the door and plant both paws on your chest to say hello. I drove to the session expecting to see a sad, listless pup but met quite the opposite. Mia has a huge smile and so much spunk — we were restricted to one room in her house since her mom and I weren’t strong enough to move her, but more than once she was able to scoot across the room in search of treats and attention, using only the strength of her front legs.

Right after our session, Mia was going to the vet to find out the extent of her injury and a prognosis. Please send lots of love and good thoughts her way. In just the hour I was with her, I was overwhelmed by her determined spirit and lively disposition. Sometimes I can barely wrap my head around all the lessons our amazing dogs have taught and have yet to teach us.

ETA: It will be a few months before her family knows if she’ll be able to walk again, but Mia is recovering from surgery with the amazing vets at UGA and doing well!

claire - awww, i love mia. something about her face just grabs me; probably because she reminds me more than a little of my own pup. lovely photos, leesia, and keep us updated about how she does!

myboyzach - Glad to hear that Mia is being well taken care of. I think these would make a great public service campaign for how most pit bulls really are, with people who love and care for them. Many people would find the pictures with the baby hard to believe !!!
