Foster Dog Photo Appreciation

An SDR volunteer found this excellent video about a professional photographer's passion for photographing rescue dogs. We thought it was so in tune to what we try to do with our SDR foster dogs that we wanted to share it with everyone! Please take a few minutes to check it out.

It's wonderful to see that the rescue movement is really taking hold of the entire country. We'd also like to take this opportunity to thank all the generous photographers that have volunteered their time and talents to our SDR dogs. Much appreciation goes out to Studio Seven Photography, Emily Griffith Photography, KME Photography, Kloud Cover, Courtney Church Photography, J.A. Photography, all the other photographers that have helped us out through the years, and our own SDR foster moms Leah Scholl and Tracy Turbak. What you are doing really helps make a difference in the lives of our foster dogs. SDR is forever grateful for your help!

Haley Dawn

My dog Foxie (on the left) is very personable and seemed lonely so I decided to seek out a sister for her. My sister had previously adopted from Small dog rescue and highly recommended the organization. I selected Haley on the website and inquired and submitted an application. I adopted her on the home visit. She has been renamed Gena and after some adjustments in food switching she has settled in to the family unit quite well. She is a very loving and gentle dog and my more active dog and her get along beautifully and have genuine concern for each other. Another major bonus is that they are both housetrained and neither one sheds. I am truly blessed with two wonderful furry companions....Becki Winslow St. Paul, MN
