This past year, taking a few dog portraits turned into a long-term passion project for me - The All Breeds Project.

Update:

Rubber City Rescue and the Humane Society has taken care of the sweet dogs.
Thank you both!!

Hey Dog Park Family, five dogs were dumped at the Dog Park this morning. We’re trying to get the warden and the police to come out here and pull the security cameras. There is a husky a Shepherd a couple mixes like mini pitbull or something mixes. They don’t seem aggressive and then a mini Aussie. They don’t wanna go in shade. We’re getting them water, but if anybody knows who these dogs belong to let them know, they will be charged by the police because we are going to pull the security camera.

🐾🎉 Calling All Pup Parents! 🎉🐾

We’re creating a special Doggie Birthday Board at the park and we want YOUR furry friend to be part of it! 🐶💛

Send us your pup’s name, cutest photo along with their birthday or “gotcha day”, and we’ll feature them on our bulletin board for everyone to celebrate!

Let’s fill the board with wagging tails, happy faces, and lots of reasons to celebrate our four-legged friends! 🐕🎂

We can’t wait to see your pups! 🐾

The water IS on at the park - pull the handle I all the way and wait about 30 seconds and it will start running. Please do NOT pump the handle - it will just break it. Pools will be coming later this week.

Never fear we put in another call 311 and they will be out today at some point to turn the water on. The faucet and bottle refill have all been scrubbed up in our nice and clean and ready to go. I also have put in a call to parks to have them come empty the trash cans along the trail because they are overflowing. Thanks to everyone for your help!
