In October, a local rescue group, Dallas DogRRR, teamed up with Cloud Nine Rescue Flights to fly in almost 40 dogs from Puerto Rico. Cloud Nine Rescue Flights is an incredible nonprofit that does large-scale long-distance animal rescue. These dogs and puppies were still suffering on the streets and in shelters in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria. Dallas DogRRR had foster homes lined up for each and every pup. It was wonderful to see so many kind people come together to help these dogs in need! Not only did many of these dogs arrive in very rough shape, but they had just made it through a stressful 5-hour flight. Despite this, each of these sweet, loving dogs was so resilient! Their tails were wagging, kisses were abundant, and even the most timid babies calmed down when they realized they were in a good place. Animal rescue is so important and rewarding, and millions of pets all over the country are without homes. I urge all of you to ADOPT, not shop, for your next best friend!

In April 2017, I made a trip to Italy, staying primarily in Rome. These images are from Rome’s City Centre. We walked through the historic sites as the sun set. I got to see the gorgeous Trevi Fountain illuminated at night, as well as the Pantheon and the Piazza Navona. Seeing all these historic sites at dusk was incredible!
This beautiful girl is Melony. Sadly, Melony passed away earlier this month as a result of cancerous tumors. She had such a wonderful 10 years with her sweet human mom, where she was loved and spoiled each and every day. I have absolutely no doubt that Melony brought joy to the lives of everyone who knew her. I fell in love with her just during our photo shoot! Pets are the biggest blessing in life that we never get to keep as long as we’d like to, so be sure to give your babies extra kisses tonight. Send all your love to Melony’s mama, as she adjusts to life without her best friend by her side. Rest easy, sweet angel ❤️
Toward the end of July, the wildly talented Zac Clark came through Dallas with a few of his friends - Bob, Mikey, and Sam. Besides these guys being incredible solo musicians, you may also know them from some other bands. Here’s a quick rundown: Zac Clark, Bob Oxblood (aka “Bobby Raw”), and Mikey Wagner (aka “Mikey the Kid”) are also members of Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness. Bobby was a member of Jack’s Mannequin and Something Corporate, and Mikey was also a member of Jack’s Mannequin. Sam Smith is both a designer and a drummer, and has played for Ben Folds.
Prior to Zac playing his own set with the full band, Bob and Mikey shared their own tunes, as well. It was so great to hear the guys all play their solo material that we don’t get to hear when they’re on tour with other bands. I’d definitely recommend for you all to check these guys out! Zac Clark just released a self-titled record on August 31, which definitely deserves a front-to-back listen. My favorite track is “Dennis Rodman.” As for Bob Oxblood, he’s dropped and handful of tracks this year, and Mikey Wagner has also released two tracks in 2018.
