Man and dog.

This post will get to serve as my exemplary injection towards the type of photographs I endeavor towards, and a template for the results of my equipment. What a lucky, lucky post, for sure.

We had this guy and his spunky labradoodle, Leroy, in on May 13th. They were a pleasure and a treat to see together, such happy buds! Prancing and posing was abounding. Mostly on Leroy's part, but he does bring a playful spark into the room on behalf of everyone.

Leroy also got his chance to romp around with Roxy and Birdie, owned by one of Dirty Dog's bathers, Erin. They're an adorable pair of girls, perfectly suited to each other and their owner. Love em to puppy pieces.

Introductions and Salutations

As an introductory first entry, this page is dedicated to the barkloads of dogs I'm privileged enough to meet daily working as a shopkeeper at Dirty Dog, an austin-area establishment providing full service and self service dog washing and grooming.

Every day at Dirty Dog ushers in a special kind of cheery chaos, peppered with dogs of a complete variety of sizes, breeds, and temperments. To me, these animals are the epitome of loyalty and joy embodied in a creature companion. It's a fantastic pleasure to meet the canine 'apples' of our customer's eyes, and witnessing each particular bond that is inevitably developed between dog and human is a hugely special thing.

Being exposed to such interactions between animal and owner is a delight to my keen interest in dogs, and emotive photography, and the purpose of this page is reserved for my little portions of these encounters. Being allowed witness to the happy and incalculable love of a dog buddy for it's master and friend is an honor, and capturing such an experience in a photograph is my passion.

Hopefully the results of my dedication to providing evidence of 'puppy-love' will exist to be enjoyed, and perhaps desired for you and your special tail-wagging buddies.
