Sunday

furry 5k



Today was the first sunny Sunday in ages, and I was lucky to be outdoors doing some volunteer work with the kind folks at the Seattle Animal Shelter- lending my photographic talents to their Annual Furry 5K run/walk at Seward Park. For someone who can't have a dog of my own, and is looking to branch out into pet/animal photography, it was a dream come true. There were tons of great dogs to look at and I had a great time mingling with the crowds and interacting with people and their pets. And it was all to benefit the Shelter and the great work they do every day on behalf of animals.

And of COURSE, I was thrilled to see some folks from Bulldog Haven NW, and get my French Bulldog fix while capturing all the race action. My favorite was the guy you see above- a little brindle Frenchie named Reuben. He was a little shy around the camera, but just look at that face (I think he was secretly loving it).

Cool! I'll bet that was fun. I love seeing all the different dogs when I'm out running.

Great shots! You got three really good one of my brother's dog Koda (she's wearing the slate Sounders kit - Xbox jersey) and one of me (I'm the one wearing a full electricity Sounders kit (imagine the brightest yellow ever in a shirt, shorts and tall socks.)
