Toby in Tofino
Toby my GirlDog had a favorite place to romp the beaches on Vancouver Island, and of course, that is Tofino! I LOVE Tofino! Toby loved all beaches, lakes, and anywhere there was water, but there is just something special about long, expansive beaches to romp and play, and she had fun on this day in [...]

Border Collie In Buttercups
I love the spontaneity of some of my photography adventures, and in this case, just driving around the Comox Valley on a Spring Sunday, and then seeing something interesting on the side of the road, or in this case, way out in a field, then hopping out of the car to capture a photo, and [...]
Inspired By Linda Dessau and Remembering Chyna

Frodo Watching Alpacas
It is so amazing to watch the natural instincts of some breeds as working dogs. This is my friend Frodo, and he is only watching the alpacas from outside the fence. Frodo is really a breed specifically designed to herd cattle, not alpacas. A true alpaca dog is a livestock guardian, and they are bred [...]
