Oh my, this is heart breaking............I will pray that a family is coming his way soon. but, this is a lovely composition with a very emotional appeal. Soft and strangely wonderful presentation of our favorite companions. #7660846Anita J. Luellen June 22, 2009
Lots if emotional impact in this portrait. Nice work! #7664985Jane Sheers June 25, 2009
WOW! This really tells a story. Great capture. This could be used by the local pet adoption agency for advertising. Absolutely amazing. This is an image you can't forget. Sure tugs at my heart. Well done! #7677796Colleen Farrell July 21, 2009

Ditto what Colleen said. Congratz on your finalist. POWERFUL capture Laurie. #7779487Carolyn J. Connolly August 20, 2009
Awww, Laurie - what a beautiful little doggie this is...but it's SO sad to see him or her locked up in a cage like that!! I really hope someone adopted this sweetie...I agree with Colleen, too - this is an "incredibly poignant" image, and your title and comment definitely helps to "spread the adoption message"...
I only wish that I could adopt a dog at my stage of life...but, sadly, my cat has an aversion to them!! ;o/ #7873710
