John this is really cool! Here just yesterday ,since a hubby and 2 kids are enough pets for me,lol,,I was thinking if the humane society would let me go there and take some pics of their pets! Just didn't get to it yet though.I was busy again with 6 babies instead. Your pic is just awesome! #4688220Les Rhoades August 23, 2007

Another great story-teller, John. More playful than your dog's paw masterpiece. I'd think the shelters would want to consider using your images in their newsletters/publications.Dolly L. Davis August 23, 2007
