Today is my baby girl’s 7th birthday. Jamie completely changed my life when we adopted her as a puppy!!! She came into our lives shortly after my dad passed away. It was a very sad, and extremely difficult time for me. My dad was my hero, my friend, my biggest fan, and then he was gone…just like that. But after we adopted Jamie…my spirits were lifted and my life was forever changed!!! She filled a void in my heart, she made me a better person, she helped me realize the importance of animal rescue, AND she inspired me to create MUTTography Pet Photography!!! So in all actuality, Jamie really rescued me!!!
Happy Birthday, my beautiful girl!!!
Here’s a photo from 2006…about 4 months old.
And here she is on her 6th birthday, down at Lighthouse Point Park, New Haven CT. I LOVE this dog sooo much!

Every year, my mom asks me to take pictures of her dog, Abbey, for her annual Christmas card…and every year, this little-one gets more adorable (even though I like to call her a little stinker)!!! This year we decided to go to Edgerton Park, in New Haven…it’s such a nice little park with beautiful trees, and a nice walking path! There were still quite a few trees with glorious RED leaves on them, so we decided to take advantage of at least one shot! And of course, we had to get her in the flower cart, and on the wrought iron bench. She’s such a sport! Ha!

It’s been a while since we posted on our blog…so now we are playing catch-up! Back in September, we met this beautiful 15 year old girl named Ginger! She was celebrating her birthday on MY birthday!!! We were so excited to meet her after hearing all about her from her family. We spent a great morning with her, and her wonderful family in Darien!!! So happy to have been a part of her special day! Happy Birthday Ginger!!! Beautiful girl!

OK, so I guess going to Arizona in June wasn’t the smartest idea!!! I knew it would be warm….but it was HOT – sweltering HOT!!! But you know, even though it was HOT, it was still a dry heat and that beats the humidity in Connecticut any day!
While we were in Sedona, we met a beautiful Yellow Lab/Shepherd/Chow mix named “Yellowstone”. What a beautiful girl!!! Yellowstone will be 15 years old in September!!! She has a little bit of arthritis, so her family takes her out in her own little buggy so she can still travel and be with them on vacations! Isn’t that great!!!
Sedona is very pet friendly town…lots of restaurants and hotels allow your furry friend to stay. And how about those hiking trails!??? Maybe someday we’ll bring our critters with us!
For now, enjoy some of our travel photos of of Sedona, as well as the beautiful girl named, Yellowstone!!

It’s been a really tough week, and it’s hardly even Wednesday yet!! I just learned this morning that this sweet old girl Payton crossed the rainbow bridge. You might remember Riley from a few posts back? Well, Riley and Payton were good friends. They didn’t live together, but their moms would take turns caring for each other’s dogs while either one was out of town. So, as you can imagine, Payton and Riley were good buds! Sadly, Payton developed an auto immune decease and underwent a blood transfusion, but unfortunately, she was not able to bounce back. I leave you with this photo of Payton. May you rest in peace Pay Pay, and run free with Riley now!

Hey there! We’re excited to be getting ready for the 4th Annual Help Willy’s Friends Pet Fair, next weekend!
Come see us on May 20th at Coginchaug Regional High School, 135 Pickett Lane in Durham, CT. Last year we had a great turnout, despite all the rain. I’m hoping for better weather this year, but whatever we end up with will be fine. For now, enjoy some of our favorite images from last year…
