LIVING IN THE MOMENT

LIVING THE DREAM

I've always heard that dogs live in the moment. And once that moment passes they no longer think of or understand it. Luckily because of my volunteering and work with shelter and rescued dogs, I now speak dog. Yes, they do live in the moment. But that moment for them last their entire lives. I want … [Read more...]

HE FOUND HIS ANGEL AND THEN BECAME ONE

BEAUTIFUL BUBBA

I met Brendan at BARC a while back. We photographed him and made a video, just like we do with all of the dogs at the shelter. He was a sweet older boy. But he was a Pittie so we knew he would be hard to place with a rescue group. Very few of them will even consider a heartworm positive, older, beat … [Read more...]

HAPPY MEAL HOLIDAYS

HAPPY MEAL FOR THE HOLIDAYS

We arrived at the animal shelter at 8:30, kolaches in hand. Kolaches = delicious rolls stuffed with sausages. Dogs love them. People do too. Trade secret: this is how we train our shelter dogs to not be heathens. The staff calls them 'high value' treats. We just call them delicious. I was about … [Read more...]

NOT DONE YET

NOT DONE YET

  I don't blame you my human. When you took me in as a puppy and made me part of your family it was the happiest day of my life, my human. And when you gave me my name, Maxie, it filled my heart with joy. I am Maxie. My job, just like my name states, is to max your heart out with joy. … [Read more...]

BEAUTIFUL BEAR AT BARC

BEAR SITING IN CO

I know what you're thinking. It's Christmas in July. Well, it is for Bear. So, my friend (who happens to drive like my grandma), Brofessor Steve Halpert, with Friends of BARC was driving to BARC and found a black Chow mix he named Bear wandering around The 5th Ward, a place notorious for stray … [Read more...]

MORK & MINDY

Nanu Nanu

I first found "Mindy" in an outside run at the BARC Animal Shelter. He was super sweet and came right up to me. I fed him some treats and he followed me around like a little puppy dog - because he was. Only six months old. Just a loving, affectionate baby. But I had to leave him to go photograph … [Read more...]

CHARLIE’S ANGELS

CHARLIE'S ANGELS

Image by Janeth Roque Another typical day at BARC. Today was overcast, cloudy, and moody. Not too hot but not too cold. Kind of clammy. The crackerjack, all volunteer Photo Team whipped it into high gear, working with the dogs, assessing them, writing bios, and taking videos and images to market … [Read more...]

RED & YELLOW THRILLED A FELLOW

WHEN HARRY MET BUDDY

Red and yellow thrilled a fellow. Gray in back joined the pack. I found Harry at the animal shelter while I was volunteering. He was a total clown, just as sweet as can be. Although for some reason he was listed as a female. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Definitely a guy. A week … [Read more...]

LYRICS LAMENT

SECOND CHANCES

Too late, my time has come. Sends shivers down my spine. Body's aching all the time. Goodbye everybody, I've got to go. Gotta leave you all behind the face of truth. I don't want to die. I Sometimes wish I'd never been born at all... I just love that song, Bohemian Rhapsody by Thin Lizzy. Don't … [Read more...]

CANDY IS DANDY BUT LICK ‘ER IS QUICKER

Candy is dandy...Owner surrender at BARC. I know, you're probably wondering why someone would give their dog a stripper's name? I don't know the answer or why she was given up on. Probably the usual: going on vacation, or I moved to an apartment that doesn't allow dogs, or we just had a baby so the … [Read more...]
