ay chihuahua! ~ {Kitchener dog photographer}

meet Bruiser …

just had to share a few images from a shoot the other evening of an extra sweet boy.  oh yeah, he looks innocent enough, doesn’t he?  just an absolutely, sweet, delicate chihuahua boy all tucked up in a lovely little nest of grass … soaking up the last rays of afternoon sun.  what a lovely, demure, little dog … or not!

am i the only one thinking of that crazy squirrel from Ice Age?

i had a blast with this whacky, wild boy who was often struck with zany bursts of the zoomies as he tore up the field.

of course, running was the only thing Bruiser had on his mind.  posing’s for sissy’s!

    He may be little, but what a big personality and presence!!! The fifth one is my favorite, but all of these are great – what fun!

    Who would think a chihuahua would be so very cool?!?! And you’re right about the Ice Age squirrel. :) Bruiser is one action-packed guy!

    The 4th one is my favorite! Love the squinty eyes and his lovely smile. This guy knows how to enjoy outdoors. And, yes, he IS the Ice Age crazy squirrel. :>)

    He is totally Scrat from Ice Age. I love it. LOVE IT! You need to shoot this little guy again with an oversized toy acorn. What a lovely coat on him as he runs!
