This is Buddy. I photographed him about two weeks ago, and I was thrilled to hear he was immediately adopted. These are my favorite stories!But then I found out that he escaped his new owner while out, and she has been searching desperately all over for him. I'm posting this hoping you (or anyone you know in the area) can help find him.He was lost around Como Lake in St. Paul, and has been seen around Roseville as well. If you see him, please, please call 612 323 3987. He is very afraid right now, so please don't try to catch him or to call to him or whistle -- he'll just run. Instead, maybe leave some food or water for him and call the number. Folks are looking really hard for him, and all sightings are helpful! Thanks!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.
