Fetching!

With all the kinds of love there is this world:  romantic, parent-child, puppy love, siblings, friendship, one of my favorites is the love between a person and a senior dog.  I love this image of bride and her dog, Molly, that was taken by Custom Portraits by Charlene.

To stay up with all of Charlene’s pet portraits, be sure to like her Paw Prints- Pet Portrait  on Facebook.
