telluride has big dogs and little dogs….

October 16, 2010

And I had the challenge of trying to photograph both at once!  Meet Cadence, a 7 year old Great Dane, and her buddy Axel, and 12 year old Pug.  Cadence is a bit of a free spirit, giving affection on her own terms.  Axel was just a love bug, which made him extra hard to shoot, since every time I would get low to the ground, he would run over for some love.  Not to mention that when they both figured out I had treats in my back pocket, they couldn’t think about anything else!  Regardless, we were lucky to have another gorgeous fall day in Telluride, and we took full advantage of it.

Meet Cadence….who almost blends into her surroundings with her beautiful brindle markings.

Oh yeah, she’s gorgeous.  And she knows it.  But she has a wild and crazy side, too!

Axel decides to join the fun after peeing and sniffing on everything in sight….gotta love those boy dogs!

Unless you have cookies, Axel prefers to sniff and explore….

Or hang out with mom….

Or look for cookies.  Excuse me, do you have cookies???

I SAID, do you have COOKIES?????

I love his pug tail.  Here it looks like a soft serve ice cream cone!

Thanks Karen, I hope you enjoyed your sneak peak!  I will have your gallery to you soon – until then, give them some extra cookies for me!
