Heeeere's Dexter!



The last few weeks have been filled with some family photo shoots and a much needed vacation, but I managed to squeeze in a fantastically fun photo shoot with Dexter, the Labradoodle.  Dexter is still a puppy, though a big one, and he sure knows it!  It always amazes me at how tough it can be to keep up the a big puppy with so much energy.  

It's a good thing I'm a distance runner, because I needed all the stamina I could get to follow this guy around.  Up and down, down and up...at times I felt disoriented, but it was oh, so much fun!  This was one of those shoots where I laughed until I had a belly ache, because of the pup's wild and crazy antics.  From running away from his handler to not following commands to running over me, full steam, as I lay on the ground with the camera, this guy was a riot!




I did capture some tender moments with this fluffy pooch.  He's just
the kind of guy you could snuggle all day long...that is, when he is still!

  1. These are the MOST amazing pictures Karen! I can only imagine how much fun you had romping around the backyard with Dexter and Sophie. How did you get him to pose like that?

    1. Thank you, Laura! It was fun, and those two dogs love each other! As for the posing, you can't get a dog to pose...I just have a whole lot of patience, and it doesn't hurt that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE animals!
