Maybelle's Sneak Peek

I had the honor of meeting Maybelle this past weekend. She is gorgeous and super sweet as well! I truly had a hard time picking just a few photos for her sneak peek...

This was her "spot". A sandy patch in the driveway... I'm sure it was nice and cool there. She certainly looks comfy!

But then she looks pretty comfy out in the yard too!

Maybelle goes lizard hunting!

After a bit, we walked just one door down to a creek with frogs! What a beautiful area to live near... and what fun for Maybelle to look for frogs too!
LOVE the happy face she is making here on the left! : D

Sitting pretty.

After the creek, and a water break at home, we drove over to Fishweir Park.
She seemed to enjoy the ride!


The park was nice with wide open spaces and big trees! Maybelle definitely had a nice time there too!


And finally home again, to relax on the couch after a long morning of modeling!

Foxy Roxy and Razzle Dazzle

Rox and Raz are beautiful kitties who came into their mom's life when she needed them most and they needed her as well! They actually live in Tennessee but spend summers with mom and their grandparents in Jacksonville.

Mom is a vegan and the kitties normally also follow the rules but their grandparents like to spoil them (of course!). Here we see Roxy's reaction to the opened can of salmon and shrimp wet cat food!


And posing pretty. I love her beautiful tortoiseshell coloring!


Raz liked to be petted but was not thrilled with my camera. We hung out for awhile and she finally relaxed enough to let me get this pretty shot of her looking out the screened patio. Check out the tufts of fur on the tips of her ears... fabulous!


She is really a gorgeous kitty, like her sister!

I enjoyed my afternoon with Rox and Raz! Hope you enjoy the photos! : )

Sneak Peek With Elby!

Elby, the adorable, is a Lhasa Apso rescue! He is quite the charming man and he loves wrestling with his Boxer girlfriend, Raisin. : )





Elby stops to enjoy the flowers...


Look at that darling nose!


No... they aren't actually wrestling here. Elby and Raisin either were camera shy or it was a little too hot out for them. We really tried to get them to do their usual but no luck. They sure are cute together though!


"What do you mean you want me to go back out into the yard to play? It's HOT out there!"


"See? This is much better... nice and cool on the couch!"


The many faces of Elby!

Jackson and Cali's Sneak Peek

Sunday was a gorgeous morning and I got to spend time with Jackson, an adorable three year old puggle, and Cali, a gorgeous four year old boston/beagle mix. Not only are they best buds and inseparable but they also brought their mom and dad together too! What a perfect lil family!


We started off at Mickler Beach and it was so much fun to watch the pups frolic about.
Cali:

Jackson:


Cali wants her ball... love how her tongue is just poking out!

And Jackson wants my squeaky dino cuz. Everyone loves a cuz!


Jackson poses pretty:

LOVE Cali's ears!


After the beach, we headed over to the doggie park to continue the fun!
Jackson bringing in a tennis ball:

And still wanting the dino cuz!


Cali sitting pretty!


And the two pups hanging out before the day was over. I bet those two had a nice nap when they got home! : )

Nala's Sneak Peek!

Nala is a gorgeous, fun-loving two year old chocolate lab. Her dad's birthday was this week (Happy Birthday, Dad!!) so her mom wanted to get photos taken for him. I took a ton and it was hard to pick just a few for the blog!

Pretty girl:


Nala love, love, LOVES her ball! I think she'd do just about anything if you'd just throw it for her...


I'm such a sucker for the happy puppy, nose in the camera shot. I'm pretty sure she was chasing me for her ball! : )


More grinning pup shots!


Nala was my supermodel in the afternoon and it has been heating up here lately... so we finally decided it would be okay for her to cool off a little.


Look at that leap!!


I hope you enjoyed the sneak peek as much as I enjoyed my time with Nala and her mom!
