This is Calvin. He's an 8-year-old terrier mix from Kentucky. He is a touch shy when he first meets you, but within 10 minutes he had warmed up completely. He loves to go for walks as well as stealing your place on the couch. He's great with other dogs (does great at doggy daycare), and is good with kids as well.Calvin clocks in around 30 pounds and really just wants all the belly rubs and all the treats. And love. So much love. If you'd like to bring him home forever, you can find his adoption information here! About this projectFor the next month, I’ll feature photos on my blog, my instagram and my facebook feeds that focus on dogs who need homes. These are dogs currently in foster homes, waiting for their forever family. They are amazing pups who will melt your hearts — some are hard to adopt because they are pit bull mixes (the sweetest dogs ever who cannot help their strength) or they have lived on the streets for a long time and are covered in scars or they might be blind or deaf (or both). Some are simply hard to get adopted because they are black, which is the dumbest reason ever. But each dog that has come into my studio in the last few weeks for photos has had a warm heart and wanted nothing more than love. Wouldn’t it be great if one of you could provide that? I hope so. To see all the dogs featured so far, look here.
