SPCA – Dog Photos with Santa

I know that Christmas is over, but after such a busy time of the year I have decided to take some time off and not to post for a while, but since I like documenting the events, especially those charity ones here is a few photos from the event.. In 6 hours I photographed 75 dogs, I have to say that is my record for now..

The event was held in a beautiful Art Knapp store in South Surrey,if you never been go and check it out it is just great!

I wanted to thank everyone that supported SPCA in Surrey and brought their animals in to be photographed. My hat off to Santa who spend two days holding the dogs on his lap, getting licked and slobbered all of over! Great job!

Also the big, big thank you goes out to my little helpers Julie and Debbie who worked hard to get the dogs attention.

As always the hardest job of all organizing the event and printing out the photos goes to the SPCA volunteers. The dogs say Woof! Woof!

Mischa – French Bulldog and Boston Terrier mix

Finally I have found some time to post some images of my puppy. All the clients’ stuff is finished, delivered or waiting for pick up. My year is officially over. I am glad I got to skip the “surprise sessions” in my blog and decided that I am not going to be posting these after Xmas. I am still planning on showing you some photos from December, but for now please meet my Mischa.

The first photo was taken the day she arrived in Vancouver at our place, she is not looking impressed and that is what happens every time I put the camera in her face, but soon I promise some happy photos!

When we got Mischa she was 9 weeks old and her ears were down, the very next day one stood up and the following morning the other one! I am so glad that I got some shots with that puppy ears!

Mischa was born on 21st of September, and when we got her she weighed 4lbs 6 ounces, this week we weighed her again and she doubled in size! I cannot believe it! Her mom was a Boston Terrier called Faith and the father was a French Bulldog named Diablo!

You saw the first snap of Mischa in Moto Post, Moto is her half brother.

She looks so innocent in photos, but believe me she never stops and is is hard to get an inside action shots. She still does not want to go outside and when she does the leash is her arch enemy. As soon as I put the leash on her she stops in her tracks and will not move. I tried harness, collars, training collars and treats she does not care.   Mischa is as stubborn as they get, oh well I wanted a dog with the character I sure got one now!

Too bad that Vancouver weather was not allowing us to take more photos outside, but soon she will be used more to the conditions and hopefully leash(it is her safety!)

I have to say there is no major damage caused by the pup, however the carpet in my office seems to be the potty. I am not sure is this is because this our cat’s room or the fact that I spend her most time or maybe visiting dogs..I hope she will grow out of it soon.
