Mother and Child Reunion (Explore)
Upfront I have to say that the original photo is not mine, it was taken by my friend when he took his new puppy back to visit her mother. I instantly loved the expressions on their faces. The mother dog's backstory is truly amazing. She was (I can say only that it was miraculously) rescued by her owner from being shot by a hotel manager in Mexico for begging and being a pest in front of his establishment.
Of course, when her owner (after driving from Mexico to WA state) got her home, she was found to be pregnant. My friend is now the proud and loving owner of one of her puppies. This is such a "feel good" story that I had to share it. Of course, I had to paint my friend's photo of mother and child.
