It was really interesting to see his instincts in action (he was always on leash – it was removed in these images).

He gave me a lot of wonderful opportunities to capture beautiful images.  This gorgeous boy is also a rescue.  He found an amazing home in Arlington, VA.

Happy Easter!

Below are a few additional images.  It was so inspiring seeing how interacting with these dogs made the kids smile.
