How sweet is this French Bulldog puppy?  This was her first time EVER in the show ring!  After a trot around the ring I guess she got tired and decided to sit down while the judge and her owner discussed how adorable she is and what a wonderful show dog she is going to be one day!  She was there with all of her siblings getting their paws wet so to speak at the Lancaster Kennel Club show in Lebanon, Pa. earlier this month.  They were too cute for words!

This family is all dressed up and ready for a luau!  The two Golden Doodles are therapy dogs and they were on hand today for the costume contest at “Paws on the Promenade” at The Promenade Shops in Saucon Valley, Pa.  The event was a huge success and all proceeds benefit local animal rescue groups.  Many of the shops were dog-friendly and offered treats and water for our furry friends, plus discounts for their humans.  I saw a Corgi shopping for Pandora charms and a Golden Retriever browsing in the women’s clothing department at L L Bean!  So much fun!

The second I shot this image I knew that it was going to be a favorite from a very fun weekend of dog shows in Harrisburg, Pa.  I was watching the French Bulldog judging and this particular pup was sitting ring side with it’s handler, all the while watching the Anatolian Shepherds being judged in the next ring.  I have no idea what the Shepherd’s name is, but “Ralphie” just fits this image perfectly and in my mind the Frenchie is thinking “Hey Ralphie, you’re looking good!”  🙂
