When I started the photo contest, I had no idea that so many amazing and touching stories would be sent in. One of those stories was sent in by Gwen on behalf of her beloved lab, Dunkin. Gwen had written that Dunkin had been diagnosed that week with a severe form of Lymphoma at only 3 years old, and that she wasn’t quite sure how much more time she had with him. Gwen said that despite his diagnosis he remains upbeat and positive. I knew that I wanted to meet Dunkin so I asked if Gwen would be willing to meet me at a local park. I was amazed that I was meeting a sick dog. I mean, I expected a mopey, tired dog but that is NOT what I met today! Gwen said she can see a difference, but to someone that never met him, I would never have guessed that this handsome lab was going through chemotherapy!



Gwen & Kim, thank you for allowing me to capture these photos of your sweet Dunkin. We’re sending out prayers and thoughts his direction for a full recovery.
My dear Blog readers, I hope that you’ll do the same.
