Happy Valentine's Day!
Who doesn't love a LOVE STORY?! Seeing as though it is Valentine's Day, I figured I would share a recent love story. If you are a regular blog reader, you know of my love for animals. I have carried this love over into my work, photographing homeless animals in hopes of helping them find their forever homes. Pet portraits are a very enjoyable part of my work!
Here was his story as shared from Lucky Pup Rescue...
Meet Rodney! RODNEY is a Hound mix and is five years old and 55 pounds. Our partner shelter has loved having him in Music City USA! He is well mannered, housebroken, enjoys long walks and playtime and loves to be petted. He is great with people of all ages and does well with other... dogs. He was tested with cats and just wanted to play with them. He is such a happy, good-natured guy! Rodney has arrived in Maine! He is doing great in his foster home. He is a typical hound. He sleeps a lot, races around for 5 minutes, and then has another snooze. He is very good on the leash. He is curious about what is on the counter but listens when corrected. As Rodney is a hound, a fenced yard would be best for him. He does not have to be crated but will go in it and settle down for a nap sometimes if it is left open. Rodney is not a barker. What a great boy!
I photograph dogs in foster care for Lucky Pup. Sue, from Lucky Pup asked me to photograph Rodney in hopes of helping him get adopted. Well, IT WORKED! I mean...this time, the studio portrait of Rodney helped first hand in getting him adopted! I posted Rodney's portrait on my business Facebook page. In a matter of maybe an hour, someone remarked about his portrait and asked where to get more information about him. Long story short, RODNEY WAS ADOPTED!!!!! That lovely woman, Lisa, who asked about him ended up adopting him. How is that for a LOVE STORY????? Bless you, Lisa and your new dog, too!
Happy Valentine's Day, all!
Thank you so much, Joanne! I truly did fall in love with Rodney when I saw his photograph and fate must have been with us because it all fell into place. Rodney is a sweetheart! Thank you for taking the photo that brought him into our lives...
