I revisited my images from Pawsabilities 2014 – an event in Harrisburg, Pa. that benefits Susquehanna Service Dogs.  SSD trains and provides service and hearing dogs to children and adults with disabilities.  It’s a wonderful event where dogs and their families come to complete in the many doggie Olympics, watch flyball and dock diving, learn about SSD, participate in costume contests, and generally have a dog-gone good time!  I’ll provide info about the 2015 event as the date draws closer!  In the meantime, enjoy this beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog puppy who was having a grand time at this year’s event!

He hasn’t won ribbons, he doesn’t know any tricks, heck, he doesn’t even have his own Facebook page, but he’s my little superstar!  Brewster waits in the window for me to come home from work or whatever my latest weekend adventure has been.  He patiently sits while I eat dinner, answer e-mail and edit photos.  Then, as I sit down later in the evening to relax and read or watch TV, he jumps up onto my lap in a heartbeat … just wanting to be close to me.  I love knowing that my little Siamese cats need me as much as I need them!  🙂

Happiness is a brand new toy!  Even more happiness is tenderly pulling the stuffing out in less than 5 minutes flat!
I had the pleasure of photographing Luis Montalván and his handsome service dog, Tuesday, at the Hershey Public Library, Hershey, Pa. last weekend.  Luis and Tuesday gave a wonderful presentation on their most recent publication, a children’s book titled Tuesday Tucks Me In.  It’s a great read … check it out at your favorite bookseller along with their other book, Until Tuesday, A Wounded Warrior and the Golden Retriever Who Saved Him.

What’s even better than swimming in the big pool with all of my doggie friends?  Being dried in a warm towel and snuggling with my mom afterward!

I’m pretty sure it was love at first woof for these two!
