Well we came through a soggy weekend with 4 shoots on the schedule and only one completed.¬† Yesterday, with the skies pouring rain and an inside ambient light of about 1.0, we made our way to the lovely home of Kathleen where we photographed a wonderful senior pet named Boo who belongs to Kathleen’s mother, Majorie.
Well, his name is “Champion Holly Brier Sweet Baboo” to be exact.
"Boo"
This photo session was a gift from Kathleen to Majorie who celebrated her birthday on Saturday. “Boo” comes from a long line of champions and though he is approaching his 15th birthday, he still knows how to work a room.
You never know what to expect when you arrive to shoot a “senior pet” but Boo did not let us down. He was active and inquisitive and more than happy to work for our treats.
In fact, I think Boo liked being a celebrity again after his days in the ring!
Not only is Boo nearly 15 years old (he turns 15 in June), he just underwent surgery this past February for a testicular tumor. Majorie says he bounced back like a trooper and hasn’t missed a beat since.
I’d like to suggest that perhaps there’s a fountain of youth elixir somewhere in Boo’s home because Majorie is equally as spry and beautiful and full of life!
The skies brightened for a moment..
This is a remarkable little dog. We’re so glad we got to spend a brief time with him while he visited from Virginia Beach! And Happy Birthday Majorie!
