Jan 17, 2010

Canela was such an important member of her people' Canela was such an important member of her people's family they brought her with them when they moved here from Spain a few years ago. When she was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer recently they spared no expense trying to save her. They'd been planning to book a session with me before that and when they received the bad news they asked if I could fit them in ASAP.Canela was in good spirits and they were optimistic about the treatment working. When I received a message just a week later saying she was gone I was shocked and SO sad for them. She was only 6.5yrs old but she lived her life to the fullest and was deeply loved. I know her passing will have affected many in her extended family.I'll share more from their session when the printed artworks arrive.---⁣ Please do not download or repost without my permission.⁣ ---⁣ ⁣ #ruthlessphotos #sydneydogs #dogsofsydney #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #scruffydog #rescuedog #fuckcancer #sydneypetphotographer
I may have forgotten to introduce you to the rest I may have forgotten to introduce you to the rest of Yogi's pack. Did I mention that I've been really sick? I feel like it's all I've posted about recently! I banged on enough about it in my monthly email newsletter today so I won't bore any more people with the details. I will say this though, I've decided to cut back on sessions to just one a week for the rest of the year. That only leaves 14, so let me know if you'd like to claim one of those before they're all gone.Now ... on to introductions! Meet @larger.than.lurch, Oprah, Indi, Marge and Joe. Apparently they all needed to come to my studio to help Joe collect his new @ruffineddesigns collar and lead set 😅 You may recognise Lurch and the pugs, they're the cover stars of my #squishyfacecrewbookLike Yogi, Joe the AmBull mix was rescued from Hawkesbury Pound. He was in a shit state. His carers have turned his life around but now he needs costly hip and elbow surgery. @roothmulvis69 has setup a GoFundMe (the link is in her bio), please at least watch the video and if you can't donate, please share it.---⁣ Please do not download or repost without my permission.⁣ ---⁣ ⁣ #ruthlessphotos #sydneydogs #dogsofsydney #canberradogs #dogsofcanberra #flatnosesociety #squishyfacecrew #sydneypetphotographer
Why does setting up take 700 times longer than you Why does setting up take 700 times longer than you think it will? My husband wants to know 😅@thedogloversfestival Sydney, we’re ready for you! I’m at stand 137 not 107 like I’ve said (many times!). I have a show special, a hamper giveaway - which contains only good stuff - and soooooo many collars and leads. Hope to see some of you here this weekend 😊
