Pearly Ann & Mackie
Posted on June 3, 2010 in Animals, Pet Photography
The Saluki in front is Pearly Ann with her son Mackie in the background. They, along with another of Pearly Ann’s offspring, were at the Chester Valley Kennel Club dog show in Ludwig’s Corner, Pa. a few weeks ago. All were being shown and their owners asked if I would mind holding onto Pearly Ann while the other two went into the ring. Of course I was honored that they would trust me to hold their dog and I was thrilled to help! Pearly Ann is very protective of her “kids” and when they went into the ring, she watched their every move. I was warned that she might cry or howl when left behind, but if I talked to her, she would be fine. Pearly Ann and I became fast friends. I hugged her and talked to her the whole time as we watched her kids showing off for the judge. When it was her turn, she romped around the ring like a puppy, impressing everyone with her grace and “showdogship”! Good girl Pearly Ann! 🙂 Below are more images of Pearly Ann and Mackie. Both so beautiful!
