Leeds Dogs Trust - Sponsor Dogs





On Wednesday, Michael went to Dogs Trust Leeds to photograph their three gorgeous sponsor dogs, Kurt, Millie and Jess. It really brought it home how lucky these dogs are to be taken in by Dogs Trust - and how fortunate our terrier Bruce is to have a good home and laze around our office all day with us, having been a rescue puppy himself. While Michael was there, a desperately ill dog was brought in, all bones and so unsteady on his feet. He'd been found tied to a railing and was in a terrible way. If it wasn't for organisations like Dogs Trust taking care of animals like this, and all the wonderful staff, volunteers and donors, so many dogs would never find loving homes and achieve a better way of life.

Happy New Year!


It's been a few months since we last blogged - where has the time gone?! Thanks to all those Mighty Poochers who purchased vouchers for their loved ones at Christmas - we're looking forward to all the shoots we have lined up this year! And we'll definitely be blogging them.

Here's a shot of our little chap, Bruce, who had a lot of fun this winter chasing snow balls and rolling about in the white stuff. We enjoyed bringing a clean dog back from our walks for once!


See you all soon!

Freddie's photoshoot







Delightful Freddie was the winning bidder at the Dogs Trust auction back in August (well, his humans were!). Not only did he and his folks make a great contribution to Dogs Trust by bidding, but they also gave us a fun couple of hours one sunny afternoon taking Freddie's portraits. Freddie was adopted from Dogs Trust himself - it's impossible to believe that someone could abandon such a gorgeous, loveable creature. As you can see, he was also a bit of a poser!

Puppy Pam's First Photoshoot























It was a real pleasure to photograph nine-week-old Border Terrier, Pam, this week. Bold, inquisitive and cheeky at times, she was seriously adorable. Her favourite pastime seemed to be stalking her 'big brother' Eric, as you can see! She definitely wasn't shy!

Success at Dogs Trust














We had a fantastic day on Sunday at Dogs Trust Open Day. So many people came to support the trust and enter into the many competitions throughout the day. Thousands of pounds were raised and we're looking forward to photographing Freddie in September, whose owner made the winning bid for the voucher we donated to the auction.

Dogs Trust Open Day

We're looking forward to this Sunday (1st August) - it's the Dogs Trust Open Day in Leeds. We've donated a voucher to the auction (the winning bidder gets a photoshoot for their dog/dogs plus an album and a couple of prints). Hopefully the day will be a huge success and lots of money will be raised!
