When I first learned that I’d have the opportunity to work with a Great Pyrenees puppy, I was beyond excited, of course – and I pictured a 20-pound little nugget that would be a roly-poly little ball of fluff! So imagine my surprise when I pull up to my clients’ house in Oceanside, and hear a booming “woof woof” coming from behind the front gate… and that deep bark belongs to a huge dog! Aspen the Great Pyrenees is only 11 months old, but he’s already bigger than most dogs! He’s a happy, ready-to-play puppy that absolutely loves to swim in his family’s backyard pool – in fact, he made a beeline for it as soon as we finished our photo session, haha! He kept me laughing all afternoon, and I was so thrilled to work with such a sweet dog & family.

This is Aspen! Don’t you love his fluffy white fur? And that look…!

We all went for a walk around the neighborhood…

I just have to share this photo with you! This is Aspen’s sister April, and these two are incredibly close – I really loved watching them interact and work together – and as a result, we have a bunch of super-cute photos of them together! (Although this is one definitely an early favorite of mine!)

April, Shelley, Tim & Garrett, thank you for such a fun afternoon! I’m looking forward to seeing you all again soon!
