Yorkie St. Petersburg, FL Daisy was rescued when her human found her wondering the streets with a crushed jaw and leg. Understandably she has a difficult time warming up to strangers but is calmed when mom is present. Photographing Daisy felt like a violation as I could tell it made her very uncomfortable. But by the end of the quick shoot, I was able to touch her a bit and even give her a little kiss on the ear. She is a fragile little sweetheart.

Pit-bull mix St. Petersburg, FL There was something sad about Alpo when I looked into his eyes. He was a quiet, sweet fella who wanted so badly to give love (which he did in the form of a hesitant ear lick). I only took three shots of him as his owners weren’t too forthcoming or engaging.
