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!

I was seated across the ring from this dog and owner at the Harrisburg show and noticed right away the colors and patterns in the scene.  The first thing that caught my eye was that the owner’s clothing matched the dog – tan and white.  Nice!  Then I noticed the geometric pattern of her blouse, the pattern of the fence, and the spots on the dog’s face.  All different shapes, but combined they made an interesting photograph.  I actually walked away without taking a photo and then had to come back because I knew that later I would regret it if I didn’t capture this moment.  Oh, not to mention that this is one adorable dog, don’t you think??

Reign, (GCH. Northwind’s First Reign) is the number one Irish Setter in the country.  Reign was the breed winner and Group 3 winner at the Harrisburg Kennel Club show a couple of weekends ago.  Pure elegance!  Love this dog!

It’s bath time for this Clumber Spaniel at the Mason-Dixon Kennel Club show in Harrisburg, Pa.  The Clumber is one of my all-time favorite breeds to watch in the ring!
