[14] Humane Society pets
YAY!! It's that time again! Time for more Orange County Humane Society dogs and cats! Debbie, the director of this particular HS branch, told me that the shelter has had an influx of interested pet owners over the past month, maybe for the holidays. Additionally on average they adopt out about 25 pets a week (which is great!!), so there's no guarantee that any of the pets pictured here on my blog will be there by the time you stop by...especially the small cute ones. BUT they are ALWAYS getting in new animals and sometimes it's a few weeks before I can get in to photograph them, so it's worth a visit anyway---because obviously they will ALWAYS have a number of great, adorable pets! I'm just the person who captures a few of those faces now and again. Anyhoo...onward!
This is Santa! And he has a beuuuuuuuuteeful coat as well as beautee-ful Bambi eyes!
Then there's Shorty, who has such a funny smile :)
Awww, and Mandy the chihuahua, who will probably be snapped up pretty quickly
Poor shy Brownie, who I photographed last time, was so terrified of the the "click" noise from my camera that we actually had to reshoot her pictures. She's a sweetie-pie mama dog.
Kipper, the waggiest dog in the shelter. He's on the fast track to becoming the "Featured Dog," with that friendly tail of his, I can tell you.
Kipper again
Timmy, such a smiley pup (also the first picture)!
Fiona the pup
Sad-eyed little Ralphie the German Shepherd mix puppy...see how badly he wants someone to hug him this Christmas!
Carlita has a brown eye and a icy blue eye, AND she knows how to shake (here she shows off her skillz)
We can't forget the cats!! This is the ever-beautimous Winter.
Rascal knows how to strike a pose...kitties are naturally statuesque, after all.
Lil' Blitzen. The OCHS employees tell me that black cats are the hardest to place in homes. Maybe because even in the 21st century people are superstitious?? PUH-LEEZ, PEOPLE. Blitzen is just as lovable as any other color kitty!
