The older and the newer

Have you ever tried to photograph black dogs?!?! How about with a basic/point and shoot camera?

These two adorable (but sorta hard to see) dogs are Toni (the large labish dog) and Bella (the tiny poodlish one). This was taken on the very first day we adopted sweet Bella. She had been living in a overcrowded sad environment. She was a mess...stinky, dirty, and matted. But underneath all of that was a sweet little girl that desperately wanted to please...and be loved.

We're a week out now and Bella and Toni are moving towards friendship. It's a precious thing to watch. Little Bella is smelling better, up to date on all her shots, and heading to the groomers this week for a haircut and power wash.
