  • For the love of God...who is cutting onions next to me...please stop...NOW!

  • It is such a great story. I respect people like Ms. Berg who spend their precious time and take actions to improve other's lives. I was a volunteer dog walker at a shelter for 3.5 years and I know how charming n loving those dogs were. Every dog needs a chance; therefore, presenting attractive photos of dogs make people get interested and want to meet the dogs.

  • Smart! I was thinking along the same lines; I mean, a used car lot wouldn't throw up photos of a busted up hooptie with a camera phone to sell more cars, would they? It kills me how cheap people usually are when it comes to photography :p

  • 1:01 I will eat your soul and wear your skin...

  • @halolamer

    Well I'm sorry that you're so nihilistic, but I think you should stop looking at the numbers and at the individual lives saved.

    Also, I don't see you coming up with any solutions to the "illness".

  • @snaredrums123 dogs don't understand English thar buddy

    p.s. Everyone dies

  • "Pro-bono, if you will." Oh god...

  • Sherry Stinson, of Tyler Dog Cards, does similar good work for shelters and rescue groups in Oklahoma.

    How lucky pets are to have their pic taken by such photographers -- really helps capture their warmth & connect them with a new family!

  • @AidenJSS why not? Does it go against some sort of rule ? I'm pretty damned sure these animals appreciate whatever marketing they can get to find a nice home. Your priorities are a little skewed here and your missing the whole point... but I guess so are 115 other 'likers'.

    Keep your jewelry locked in the box for those expensive nights out on the town I guess.. don't ever think to use it for anything else..

    If it saves them from being euthanized, do whatever works.
