Friday Fix (8/9/2013) - Help!

By Christy Hess

The last few months we have been busy at Colorado Puppy Rescue (in a great way). Every other week we have a longer/bigger intake that starts later in the evening. This week we found out that we definitely need more than one photographer at an event. I was the bottleneck. But my wrangler hung in there for me and we ended up with some great photos!

48 pups + 630 photos + 3 hours + 3 hours cropping photos for website = 1 late night

We had the Sears Portrait studio for puppies going this week, because as we started pictures, the sky opened up and it started pouring rain. The great thing - the puppies are so darn cute this week that they will have no problem finding homes.

There were some bloopers though - enjoy.

Not looking!

Not looking!

Not Looking - see a pattern here?


Might have overdone it with the props on this one - my fault.

Needed to stretch his legs during the photo shoot

Fetch please!

What's happening over there?

Gottal love a shar pei shake

...and the other way.


Work it! The camera loves you!






How's this for a picture for the website.



Looks like the same dog as above - but they were two different dogs, just the same pose.

Watch out, if you don't pose for a picture I am going to make you pose in this bucket


Have a great weekend.

Friday Fix (2/8/2013) - Around Town

By Christy Hess

Thank you for voting for the names of the 5Ks last week. Of the four suggestions Mutt Strut won by a landslide, but a suggestion for Ruff Start and Ready to Walk is also going to be brought back to the committee. Stay tuned for more details.

Spring is in the air...unless of course you live on the east coast, where Nemo is pound down snow. Here in Denver the weather is quite mild and I am looking forward to Spring when I can take the dogs for our nightly walk.

I have lived in Colorado all of my life, and often times I overlook new places because I am always headed to the same place all of the time. To get out of that rut, I download a couple of apps on my IPhone (also available for Android) to find new things to do with my dogs.

The first app is called Dog Friendly Mobile, it is great for travelers, telling dog friendly hotels, highways and rest stops, but not what I wanted.

The second app is called Dog Friendly. I put in my zip code and it immediately came back with dog friendly hotels/motels, but also dog parks & beaches and campgrounds. These are places that are just a few miles away from my house that I never even knew existed. The mileage is a bit off, but it definitely gives me some new places to check out with my dogs!

Please let me know what your favorite application is for your pup?

We have some really cute puppies this week, and I have a couple of bloopers that I pulled out that didn't make it on the website, but were just too cute!

Whoops - my eyes are closed.

Big head...tiny body.

Where does the tiger end and the dog begin? Perfect angle!

I seeeeeeee you!

Aw please, aren't I cute enough without having to use the stupid props?

Wink, wink!

I am soooo tired!

Happy Valentines Day!

I looooovvveeee you!

This one was active, but so sweet!

The shame of having your picture taken in a basket!
Hope you have a fabulous week and Happpy Valentines Days!
