Squirt and I had a great time up north this weekend! There's something special about waking up to see the world covered with snow... it's sooo peaceful! Well, that is, unless you live in it all the time and have to shovel your way out of the driveway just to get to work! Trust me on this one... I used to live in Michigan! It's not nearly as special when you have to live with it day in and day out month after month! But...for the weekend, it was great!
We played... we relaxed...slept in slivers of sunlight...and we played some more! I even got a little work done! So now...bring on 2011! I think I'm ready!

AZ DOG SPORTS HOLIDAY PARTY | Phoenix Pet Photographer
I spent the day at AZ Dog Sports celebrating the Holidays... or should that be Howl-i-days? I had the chance to photograph so many fun dogs! If you haven't checked out this great 5000 s.f. indoor facility yet, you need to drop by next time you're in the area of Cactus and Tatum! They offer a wide range of classes... Everything from Puppy Classes & Socialization, Agility, Disc Dog, Herding, Canine Conditioning and so much more!
Here are just a few of of the decked out dogs that visited with Santa today... And Santa was the BEST!
A special thanks to all of you that let me photograph your dogs today! And thank you for your donations to the Home Fur Good Animal Rescue. I will have your photos up on the website as soon as possible!
This is Oshi...and it's as close as we could get to a smile! But look at those soulful eyes! I think he's telepathically communicating his wish list to Santa!
Puppy's First Christmas! This is Secret... and I'm pretty sure she got a 'forever home' for Christmas! (Oh wait... don't tell her Foster Mom I said that!)
Roxy got to spend some quality time with the big guy himself. I'm sure even Santa couldn't say 'no' to those big brown eyes!
And finally, this is Quinn... He waited all day to get his turn in front of the camera! But there was no lack of energy even after partying all afternoon! I LOVE Puppy Energy!

AZ Dog Sports | Phoenix Agility Photographer
Saturday was a perfect day for the Harvest Festival! The weather was great! I was at AZ Dog Sports taking pictures and meeting LOTS of great people involved in the dog world!
Layne and her crew did an awesome job at getting everything set up and organized. The trainers demonstrated skills taught in their classes.
There was an awesome Disc Dog demonstration...did you know dogs could FLY?? Stephanie at Cozy Critters was soooo much fun! If you're in the market for a pet sitter, give her a call! The Arizona Border Collie Rescue was there. How could you resist making a donation to a dog that goes out and collects the money himself?? And on the bottom is Mason... This multi-talented dog is so well trained and he's so gentle! His mom, Anabelle, is one of the trainers at AZ Dog Sports.
Are they having too much fun, or what?! Massages were being given compliments of Pawsitive Touch
And look at the sweet little face above! How could someone not want to take him home? He was there with several of his friends at Home Fur Good Animal Rescue. The pup on the right belongs to another one of the trainers at AZ Dog Sports!
And then there was Sara, from Moke Ranch Agility. She was showing how the Dartfish software works... I don't totally understand it because it has to do with biometrics, and planes (no, not the flying kind!)... planes that the dog and the handler move through. But it totally analzyes how you run your dog. Once you see where your handling errors are, you can correct them! She and her husband are up in Cornville and do skills coaching, private agility instruction, and hold weekend workshops on their ranch!
Aside from that, we had a BLAST at our end of the gym! It's such a small world... we found out we knew so many of the same people in a field TOTALLY unrelated to dogs! You know how when you meet someone and you just know you could hang out together?? Well, she was one of those people!

Arizona Dog Sports | Phoenix Dog Photographer
Everyone is invited to come out this weekend to the Harvest Festival, Saturday, Nov. 6th, from 12:00 - 4:00 p.m. at the shopping plaza directly across the street from Paradise Valley Mall. I'll be at Arizona Dog Sports which is an awesome 3,000 s.f. indoor training facility located at 4848 E. Cactus Rd. There will be Agility and Disc Dog demonstrations, Trainers on-site, and lots more! I will be raffling off a FREE Pet Photography Session with a complimentary 8 x 10 print! Come on out and find my table and introduce yourself! And don't forget to bring your dog... Among other events, they will have a chance to "bob for hotdogs"!
And since no post is complete without a photo... (or two!!)
