My, oh my, we’ve had some wonderful days! The weather has been undeniably gorgeous over the last few weeks in Chicago. It always amazes me; the instant it turns warm outside, people and dogs seem to just appear. I can’t help but think, “Where are all of you during the cold months?”

If you know me at all, you know I’m a lover and defender of animals. They warm my heart on the toughest days; I can’t imagine life without them. So, this week I thought it would be fun to wander around and find dogs to photograph. It definitely wasn’t a challenge, there are adorable furry faces everywhere you look. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did (albeit with a little less wet noses and drool).
