My latest My Mutt shoot actually only included one animal: a lovely boxer named Charlamagne (it’s a she, despite the name). Charlemagne lives up in Marin and we did the session over by the Marin Civic Center in the early morning. Like most boxers she definitely could tap into extra power reserves when she needed [...]

Don’t you just love it when dogs who’ve lived together for a long time act just like a married couple? Well, meet Boomer and Tippy - a fine pair of pups who both came Hopalong Rescue and have been in their forever home since 2002. I met with them on a fine foggy San Francisco [...]

As I’ve been mentioning I’ve had quite a number of assignments involving bunnies of late. Most are tied to My Mutt (I know, they may want to think about broadening the scope) and my most recent subjects are a threesome living over near Berkeley who are all tied to the most-excellent Save a Bunny rescue [...]

If you’re like me you probably get really annoyed when the holiday decorations started showing up in the stores right after Halloween. Well, I’m one-upping them bigtime and am promoting holiday card sessions for pets less than a month after Labor Day (at least I waited until the first day of fall)
In all seriousness, I’ve [...]

Another week another Pet Food Express My Mutt shoot. For the first time in a while this was actually one for dogs — the last 3 have all been rabbits. The lucky poster stars this time are the aptly named Benji, a cute little blonde terrier rescued through the Milo Foundation, and Tina, an adorable [...]

Full disclosure here…I’m a complete and utter sucker for senior dogs. Not that I’m really that objective to begin with when it comes to pets but any sort of logic pretty much flies out the window when I run into a geriatric canine — especially one with any trace of German Shepherd in them.

Wow. Ever have one of those days where something completely unexpected happens? A few days ago I got an email from a friend congratulating me on my recent nomination. Since the Democratic and Republican Conventions are both over I knew I hadn’t been tapped by Obama or McCain as a potential second in command but [...]
