little lolli grows up ~ {Toronto, Ontario pet photographer}

with a heavy fall shooting schedule and now the post work on those dozens of sessions, we’re woefully behind in blogging.  in fact, the guardians of the next few scruffy faces you’re going to be seeing on the SDP blog have already received their full galleries and are in the midst of ordering …  yeah, that far behind!

i’m sure a lot of you will remember little Lolli from her puppy shoot last winter …

well, she’s grown up … just a little.

and although this little girl still goes like stink …

… she’s more able to multi-task … running, carrying a stick, and — what is not so readily visible — working on her complex math equations, all at the same time!

we started with some shooting indoors …

then, off to the great outdoors!

when Lolli’s parents mentioned the location they were considering, i was psyched … i knew Lolli’s colour would look fab with the red bricks!

and like any well-respecting retriever, Lolli has grown to love balls.

and b-i-g sticks …

i’m hoping Maria doesn’t mind me sharing a photo of her on the blog.  i don’t often post “owner” photos, and actually don’t often take this kind of “posed” shot, but i liked this …

and i loved Maria’s red boots.

as always, variety is big with a scruffy dog session, and this blue wall was a nice splash …

thanks for a fun afternoon, Maria and Andy.  i can’t wait to get working on Lolli’s Best in Show album!

little sadie ~ {Toronto, Ontario pet photographer}

meet the newest member of Harriet and Tom’s household … little Sadie …

she’s a saucy little handful …

some of you may remember Bridie, Harriet and Tom’s previous cairn whom they lost several months ago

well, this little wild girl is keeping both Harriet and Tom on their toes as they teach her all about the world …

wild, i tell ya!

but little Sadie is in the absolute best hands she could possibly be …

i look forward to more sessions with Sadie as she grows.  hope you’re enjoying the images of your new girl, Harriet and Tom!

little boy ryder ~ {Toronto, Ontario pet photographer}

the other weekend i had a blast with young Ryder during his first scruffy session …

a breed i’ve always admired from afar, this little boy didn’t disappoint.  Ryder was so much fun to work with.

Ryder is not mom Katharine’s first wire fox terrier, so she knows what she’s doing with this crazy boy, and the bond between them, even at his young age, is already extremely obvious.

and in spite of his youth, Ryder’s training is well underway, which always makes certain aspects of our shoot a lot easier.

and he had so much fun with recalls …

zoom zoom …

thanks for a fun shoot, Ryder.  i look forward to watching you grow up.

i hope you enjoy your gallery, Katharine.

more puppies ~ {Ontario puppy photographer}

the fall schedule at scruffy dog is crazy packed right now … more than quadrupled booked, and working to make the most of the great weather and the season, memory cards are flying as the cameras seem to be snapping non-stop.

as a result of the heavy shooting schedule, there’s not much time for blogging.  if you want to keep up with sneak peeks of the amazing scruffies i’ve been meeting this season, you really need to join the scruffy dog facebook page and get your daily doses of happy.

but in the meantime, i figured i’d throw some adorable puppies at you …

i could intersperse all kinds of text and wonderful verbal descriptions of this little golden team, but honestly, who’s reading this anyway?  when confronted with the overwhelming cuteness of puppy butt …

… isn’t all of this text just gobbledygook anyway when framed within such cuteness overload?

little monsters …

and sweet mama, Severn.


hope you enjoyed this litter of furballs as much as i did!

puppies!! ~ {Ontario pet photographer}

i can’t believe i haven’t put these darlings up on the blog yet!  you’ve seen sneak peeks of them on the scruffy dog facebook page, but the mountain of super cute images from this seven-puppy litter made it almost impossible to narrow down the selection for the blog.

so i figured, why not make it two super cute, irresistible blog entries?  yup, two.  so, don’t adjust your cute-meters and buckle in for the ultimate carnival ride of “awww!” you’ve ever been on!

and there’s almost no point in me writing anything for these entries since you’re all here just for the piles of cuteness anyway, right?

by the time of the shoot, mama Severn had had just about enough of this ravenous, razor-toothed brood …

ah yes, so sweet and innocent …

… not!  just look at these beasts at work!

can you believe that a couple of the new puppy owners actually took on two puppies?  i think their photos are the latest entries in the Wikipedia definition of: “glutton for punishment”.

and who doesn’t like a little puppy butt?

oof!

stay tuned for another dose of puppy coming soon.  and today i’m off to meet a couple more adorable puppies!
