Hugo

I once again have a large backlog of photos to sort through and edit, but I couldn't wait to share a couple of shots from today.  This adorable little guy is Hugo, he is a rescued Rottweiler pup, and his foster parents have decided to keep him.  I can't say I blame them, just look at that face!

Sweet Nelson

I got to meet and photograph sweet boy, Nelson today.  He's being fostered through Broken Promises Rescue.  Nelson, unfortunately, has two torn ACLs and requires TPLO surgery on both back legs.  As we found out with our dog Charlie, this is an extremely expensive procedure (and she only needed one), with a long recovery.  Broken Promises needs to raise the funds to provide Nelson with the surgeries. If you'd like to help this sweet gentle boy, please visit the Broken Promises website and check out the many ways you can help out.

Mumma Fern

The Mumma of the adorable Chihuahua puppies I have been sharing is also looking for a family to call her own.  She is a very sweet girl, and she does great around the big dogs. If you would like to add Fern to your family you can apply to adopt her from the Victoria BCSPCA.

Chihuahua Puppies

The latest foster litter came in triple x-small.  They are a threesome of tiny Chihuahuas!  Myself and the foster Mumma's, being the big-dog people that we are, were so surprised at just how much we enjoy these extra-little critters.  They are just so joyful and enthusiastic, and all they want to do is shower you with tiny little kisses.  There will be much more to come on these munchkins, who will be available for adoption through the BCSPCA Victoria Branch, but I just couldn't go to bed without sharing these special Spring themed shots.

Sprout - Part II

I'm happy to say this beautiful girl will be going to her new family this week.  She is but one of many dogs and puppies out there looking for a family to call their own.  If you're thinking of adding a furry family member to your pack, please check with your local shelters and rescues (like Broken Promises, where Sprout was fostered). Adopt, don't shop. 

Sprout

I've got more pictures to finish editing from today's shoot with little Sprout, but I just wanted to share one for tonight.

Cape Scott Beach Adventure

Back in November I hiked to Cape Scott Light Station with a small group of friends.  I posted pictures from the hike to the station in early December.  This post contains the photos I took on the full day we spent up at the station.  Todd and Harvey, the lighthouse keepers, took us on a tour of some of the beaches and sea caves that surround the light station. It was an incredible day.

There is a lot of stuff on the beaches from the Tsunami in Japan

These icicles are formed from ground water, the orange colour is from minerals picked up along the way.

Can you spot the animal forms?
