Descripción: Dog rescue has blossomed in recent years, as more and more people are choosing to adopt dogs from animal shelters and homegrown rescue organizations and have categorically steered away from purchasing dogs from breeders and puppy mills. In this beautifully illustrated book, Susannah Maynard provides personality-rich dog portraits and chronicles rescue dogs’ journeys from a turbulent start to a warm, loving, and happy and safe home. Readers will find heartwarming and triumphant stories that point to dogs’ characteristic resilience and unconditional love. Her subjects include puppies, adult dogs, and special needs dogs―of all breeds, and of course, mixed breeds―and her stories will empower readers to join the rescue effort or bolster their efforts to increase their volunteer involvement to better the lives of rescue dogs, one animal at a time.Review“Those eyes. When I see Susannah’s rescue dog photography, I’m drawn to their hopeful looks. Pet me. Love me. Bring me home. This is important work. I photographed shelters and brought a dog and a cat home. You’ll want to do the same when you see these images.” ―Scott Shaw, Pulitzer Prize–winning photographer“Susannah’s work is a shining example of what one hopes to achieve when viewing our furry friends through the lens: sharp, crisp images, eye contact with your pet, all on a canvas of bold colors and creative sets. It takes more than patience to pull this off, it takes miracles, and Susannah is a miracle worker!” ―Kevin E. Newsome, M.Photog.Cr., CPP, APIAbout the AuthorSusannah Maynard is a lifelong animal lover, animal rescue advocate, and pet photographer. Long before she picked up her first camera, she captured images of the world around her with a pad of paper and a box of crayons. From her early childhood, Susannah was surrounded by a house full of cats, beginning her lifelong love of animals. After trying a variety of careers, from fundraising to publishing, Susannah was at a career crossroads when, in 2011, she adopted her heart dog, Mr. Bojangles, and discovered there was such a profession as pet photographer. Deciding to turn her love of both photography and pets into a career, Pet Love Photography was born. Susannah has spent the last several years photographing hundreds of rescue and client pets. She primarily works on location to make sure that her pet subjects are as comfortable as possible in environments that are familiar to them.
