Every dog deserves a good home. Some just take longer to find it.

The dogs in this book were stationed at the Hunter RSPCA adoption centre in 2007/2008. Each one of them was happy, lovable and definitely loving back yet each time I went to the RSPCA certain dogs stared back out at me from their kennels, intelligent and beautiful dogs that had no need to be there and it broke my heart to have to say good bye to them at the end of each day.

This is my gift to them. If I can raise public attention to the wonderful dogs at adoption centres around the state, the country and the world through my photography then I will have done some good.

Please, if you are going to buy a pet visit your local animal shelter first. They may not have a pedigree but when it comes down to it, neither do my human friends.
