Outdoor shot of a leaping dog, caught in mid-air suspended in a cloud of fine sand. She is mostly brown, with a white neck and chest, wearing a ping collar, and facing to the right. She has just jumped into the cloud of sand kicked up by a dog digging a hole a few feet away. Other dogs can be seen milling around in the background.

An outdoor shot looking down a two-track road through coastal scrub with tall shrubs/saplings prominent on the left. Three dogs are visible in the road. The lead dog is brown with a white chest and legs, wears a pink collar an is bounding towards the photographer with both ears up and a happy expression on her face as she cuts through the tall grass dividing the two tracks of the road. A bit farther down the road another dog is partly visible in the same tall grass. Just beyond them a chihuahua is moving quickly towards the photographer in the right track of the road.

Two coffee-colored dogs, one with more white than the other, both lie facing toward the camera, which is held at dog height. They are lying on a large palm frond which has obviously been chewed on and which is partially buried in the sand all around them. A large rubber tire is mostly buried on the right of the frame, its treads sticking out of the sand. Both dogs are looking at the photographer, one with ears akimbo, the other with the both pointed up. Dense greenery borders the yard behind them, including a coconut palm.

Action shot of two dogs engaged in acrobatic play under the dense foliage of a Neem tree. They are in a sand yard bordered by a green hurricane fence with white privacy panels attached. They are both swirling counter-clockwise on a circle in the sand. The one nearest to the camera is springing into the air, arching themselves to the right as they leap to the left. Their sparring partner is moving on all fours to the right, her head turned to face the other. There is a feeling of intense concentration.

Sparring partners 💕💸 🐾 #DogSky #AnimalShelter #RescueDogs #DogsOfBluesky #photography #animals

Two dogs posing for the camera in the middle distance in a sand lot bordered by a green hurricane fence with white privacy panels attached. Dense bushes grow close to the other side of thee fence, growing through it in spots. The two dogs are both coffee colored, one with more white than the other. They are standing on a large palm frond, freshly downed and still green. Both are standing at an angle and have their heads turned to look at the photographer. They stand exactly in the center of the palm frond, and at their feet lies a bright orange chew toy in the form of a "Z". Another downed palm frond lies partially in frame to the right.

Outdoor shot of a cute, shaggy little dog sitting in sand next to a green hurricane fence. A palm frond frames her from above. She is lying in the sand facing to the right of the frame, with her head turned to face the camera, which is being held low. The look on her face is one of total engagement. Her coat is vaguely Rottweiler-ish, but shaggy.

Outdoor shot in a meadow bordered by trees on the left, a line of dogs on a faint trail with tall grass all around them. Six dogs can be seen following in the furrow plowed through the grass by the lead dog, still charging out of frame at bottom.

Outdoor shot in medium, dappled light. A dog with dalmatian-like markings stands in the sand facing the camera, the light filtering down echoing his spots. His head is enormous proportionally to his body, and is mostly black. The camera is held at the level of his head and he is staring directly into the lens with a happy air about him.

Brightly lit outdoor shot of a two-track white sand road through coastal scrub, with some abandoned buildings visible in the right side of the frame. The camera is pointed slightly down at two fuzzy dogs leading a pack of five dogs total on a walk along the road, coming towards the photographer. Immediately behind the pair of fuzzy dogs are two spotty dogs, both black and white. Bringing up the rear several meters behind is a smaller brown-and-white spotty dog. The sky is cloudy.

An outdoor scene in sand: a stretch of yard bordered by hurricane fence with a mid-sized coconut palm tree growing just inside of it. Under the palm two brown and white puppies sit while a third black and white pup is caught dashing towards the camera, their eyes focused on the photographer as they move. The mood is happy.

Close shot of two yearling dogs resting on a couch, both white, lying partially on a wadded-up Mexican blanket an partially on each other. There are no cushions on the couch, just a piece of plywood on a metal frame. One is sitting up and looking into the camera, the other is lying languidly draped over the edge of the plywood, looking down.

Three puppies in a tight little pile, one brown, the others white, in the middle of a blanket in the middle of a floor full of dog blankets. Over them, an adult dog seems to float as she sits in a hammock suspended over the pups; she is beautific. To the right in the shot, another adult lies facing the pups and focused on them.

Downward-facing shot taken while sitting at a desk, a slice of life: a white tile floor with a light brown blanket thrown down near the legs of the desk. Three puppies lie on the blanket, one sleeping with their head draped over the metal base of the table, another sleeping with their head on the first one and the final pup lying down but awake and looking to their right. One of the adult dogs is lying sleeping in the doorway while the other three are sitting around the pups looking up at the camera. They all have happy looks on their faces.

Two white puppies sit, one more or less on top of the other. They are lying in the sand next to an abandoned old metal window with glass panes partially stuck into the sand, with some corrugated fiberglass visible behind them. Both are staring directly into the camera, which is being held at pup level. The puppy lying on top of their sibling has both ears partially up, while the one lying down completely has their ears down and a sandy nose.

Close-in shot through the door from the outside onto a porch with the light behind the photographer, catching two dogs standing in the sunlight and casting long shadows onto the porch. The taller one is a shaggy, red adult with black brindled striping in their beautiful coat, looking happily into the lens, which is held at dog's head height. The other is a puppy with a light brown coat, looking up into the camera. Behind them on the porch various other dogs are hanging out; one is drinking from a large, yellow water bowl, another hanging out on an outdoor lounge chair.

Outdoor shot in coastal scrub and sand, featuring two dogs, one very tall, and one still a pup. The rust-colored pup is walking towards the camera, which is held down at pup level, her tail up and tongue out. The taller dog is light brown and white, and is partially out of frame to the left, apparently rubbing himself against some tall bushes and looking contentedly to the right. There are large, puffy white clouds in the distance under an otherwise clear blue sky.

A faint trail through coastal scrub and grass in bright sunlight, under a clear blue sky. Three dogs are running on the trail, from the top of the frame to the bottom right. The dog closest to the camera is rust colored with a black snout, captured with only one paw on the ground. The second, several paces back, is a shaggy little gray dog, soaking wet and also making time. The rear dog is also shaggy and gray, loping along quickly enough not to fall completely behind.

A close up of a mostly light brown dog with a skin condition visible on their head and paws. They are lying down in the sand, facing the camera, their head inclined slightly as they grab a bright orange chew toy lying on the sand in front of them gingerly in their jaws. Behind them, slightly out of focus, a fawn-colored dog wearing an orange collar lurks, observing.

A concrete bench outside in a sand yard bordered by hurricane fence with white privacy picketing attached; the Gulf of MEXICO can be seen in the background, the light is dusky. On the bench two dogs are standing, both facing the camera. On the left a light brown dot with an orange collar is looking up with an almost Salvador Dali-like expression on their face. To the right, a dark black dog stands, looking down at the sand pensively. Another dog's snout is poking into the frame from the bottom, also black.

Closeup shot taken from puppy height of two pups hitting the beach for the first time. The puppy in front, a tiger-stripe brindle, looks absolutely delighted, their mouth open and tongue lolling out in excitement; their all-brown sibling, following behind a little, seems more pensive. It is overcast and the Gulf of MEXICO seems churned up, with seashells and seaweed strewn liberally everywhere.
