Remember our Collie friend, Cody? That lucky boy got a new little brother for Valentine’s Day! Both Cody and Benjamin were rescued from the Animal Humane Society {go rescues!} and I hear they’re getting along great. Benjamin is a gorgeous 12 week old German Shorthair with more spunk than any one puppy should be allowed....
Dustin’s family was in town this weekend, and his sister brought the kids by for some photos. I’ll post the girls in another blog, but I just wanted to share Connor with all of you. He’s the newest addition, 5 months old, and pretty much the sweetest baby ever. And holy blue eyes!
My wonderful Dustin got me these tulips {one of my favorite flowers} for Valentine’s Day last week! The next morning they were opened up and the sun was shining, and I just had to get some photos. It feels good to look at these now that they’ve dried up and it’s dark outside. Just a...
Remember cute little Pixie from her Studio session a while back? We had the outdoor part our Combo session last week {after a couple of weather reschedules} and it was awesome! I’ve never seen a dog so little be SO excited about snow! She loved it. We had a gorgeous sunny day and found a...
Cody is a gorgeous Collie who was rescued from the Animal Humane Society. {yay rescues!} He also enjoys spending time with my good friends at Pampered Pooch Playground. He’s the first Collie to grace the SBP studio, and he did a great job! He’s very well behaved and has dreamy soft fur that I could...
Since Dustin has to work all day, I decided I’m going to take this Valentine’s to love my home. Anyone who knows me or has ever been here knows about the perpetual mess that never quite completely disappears. I hate it, but never get motivated to really dig in and organize and move and clean....

Summed up, Black Dog Syndrome refers to the low adoption and high euthanasia rates of black dogs in shelters. I...
I think I’ve found the perfect name for these very important sessions for terminally ill or elderly pets: The Joy Session. I couldn’t think of anything or anyone I’ve met who embodies such love and such a deep connection as Joan and Joy. Remember, Joy was Joan’s Service Dog, and absolutely meant the world to...
One of the new things I’m proud to offer this year is an Emergency Session. {I struggled with what to call it, and all of the words I came up with were equally or more sad than “Emergency”…. if anyone has a better idea, I’d love to hear it} These special sessions are for terminally...
In collaboration with Fetch Delivers, Sidewalk Dog and Pampered Pooch Playground, we’ve put together the first ever Twin Cities Puppy Bowl, modeled after (but not quite as fancy as) the Animal Planet Superbowl hit! What makes ours special, is all of the pups are from local rescues, and many are still up for adoption. The...
