It was one year ago today that Gabriel joined our family after being fostered by Siamese Cat Rescue Center (thank you Auntie Rinn!). He was a frightened and shy little kitten, but full of spunk right from the start. His deep blue eyes and creamy white fur are a gorgeous combination. As he has gotten a little older (he’s now 1-1/2 years old) he has developed more color and stripes to his lynx point coat. He has mellowed into his role of chief trouble maker in the house and he loves to frolic with his big brother and sister. He loves to play with toys and scatters them all under various pieces of furniture and kitchen appliances. He enjoys belly rubs and is quite the chatterbox at times. We can’t imagine our house and family without him! Thank you SCRC for all that you do to foster and find homes for the most wonderful breed of cat … the Siamese!

A Great Dane and a Golden Retriever …. all 8 paws in the air …. chasing a tennis ball on the beach! It was a doggie play date and they were having SO much fun. I think I was having just as much fun watching them romp across the sand and playing together!

With blessings and furry hugs. That’s how retired U.S. Army Captain Luis Carlos Montalvan signed his e-mail and books. His smile would light up the room and together with his service dog, Tuesday, he was a strong advocate for veterans issues and those with disabilities. I had the extreme honor of being invited to photograph Luis and Tuesday several times in the last few years and will forever cherish the memories of those special days. We were planning to visit this Spring when he and Tuesday returned to our area. Luis passed away over the weekend and I can still not comprehend that he is gone. With blessings and furry hugs … you will be missed.

Here’s a breed that you may not see every day at the park … the Bergamasco. This breed is a herding dog with three different types of hair. The flocks or loose mats that cover the dog’s body protect it from predators and weather. Such a fun dog to watch in the show ring … and probably everywhere else for that matter!

Reserve Best in Show (which wasn’t shown on TV) at The National Dog Show Presented by Purina went to English Springer Spaniel, “Timmy” (GCh Cerise Blindside) with handler Howard Huber, Jr. From my observation, Timmy apparently loves to give kisses! If anyone has a particular breed that they would like to see, let me know and I’ll check my photos from the show and post your favorites!
