Had to showcase my best boy, Jasper, for this week’s 52 Snapshots of Life photo challenge. The theme is black and that’s my little guy! I took this while out on a walk recently. It was an exciting walk because, after months of looking, I finally spotted a gnome in someone’s garden. I’ve wanted to take a pic of one of the dogs beside a gnome for the longest time. It’s my love of kitsch and pop culture. If you follow us on Instagram (@barkandswagger), you’ll see it. I’ll be posting it there. But, this one is more traditional, beside a white picket fence. I liked how Jasper’s dark fur stood out against it.
I’m so glad we adopted Jasper. Thank goodness, he wasn’t at the shelter that long, according to them, anyway. But, he is a black dog and some people don’t want to adopt a black dog. I don’t understand it. Why do you think that is?
Pet blogging friend and colleague, Christina Berry of The Lazy Pitbull, created this fun challenge. You don’t have to be a blogger to participate. Just snap or choose a pic you’ve taken that matches that week’s theme and post it on your social networks, with the hashtag #52Snapshots, so we can all follow along! For pet bloggers, this is a BlogHop, so hop on!
