I arrived way early, I got there at 8:00 am and the only one there was the volunteer who cleans the kennels and gets thing ready for the cats. The first shelter on my list was a combo of Wskr and Tucson2Tails, a couple of cat rescues. She was great though and in short order a few more volunteers came. I stayed out of the way and got some great patience practice for a couple of hours while they set up. Then it was fairly smooth sailing with the volunteers helping to coral the cats.
Now I know to come later in the day, it all worked out great in the end and I got some great shots that I hope they can use!
He had so much energy! I got this shot while they were tiring him out for his photo shoot.
A bit shy, but really liked her ears scratched.
My favorite of the day. He was the most mellow cat and super sweet!
The second shelter that was kind enough to let me bother them was In The Arms Of Angels. They have some really friendly dogs and cats that need good homes. They were super helpful and a lot of fun to work with. They were great!
Very calm for a puppy
Had to watch this one, it wanted kisses!
He wanted loving so bad!
Third up was Smiling Dog Rescue. They had all sizes and were very friendly. Their dogs were well behaved and friendly. It was fun to shoot them! I love how expressive they were!
He was a handsome fellow!
Such soulful eyes!
He would be a loyal companion!
The fourth was Saving At Risk Animals. It's a cat rescue and had some of the cutest kittens. I really enjoyed talking to the volunteers and trying to herd cats with them.
She was a winker and a cuddlier.
She wanted her treats.
A little wiggler. Tons of energy!
The final two were grouped together like the first two and they seem to help each other. They are Save A Chihuahua and ASAP Rescue. They both rescue small dogs and it was quite pleasant to work with their volunteers to get the animals photos taken.
A real sweetie!
I love her ears!
He's like a little teddy bear!
All in all it was a great Saturday and I'm going to do it once a month or so. The people were friendly and I got the satisfaction of a good days work. I learned a lot doing it, (definitely need to eat first) and it was a lot of fun. I really loved taking these photos and I hope they help!
That was GREAT!!!!
My heart melted many times. So yes, I think you will be able to help. A lot.
ReplyDeleteGreat Job! Couldn't say which one I liked best but if I really had to chose it had to be the last doggy with the puppy dog eyes. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks! They were all so adorable and friendly. I'm looking forward to doing it again soon.
