staredown
these two Pit Bulls are siblings, and were shot at the East Valley Animal Shelter.
This is part of my Shelter & Rescue Dog exhibit, showing through May in Long Beach, CA.
In the This Is Who We Are photo essay.

yes :) photographed. i guess when photographing shelter dogs, I should avoid the word "shot."
These two were sweethearts. These dogs really do have such a bad reputation. I spent about 10 minutes with every dog in this shelter, I'd say at least half were Pits, and they were all as sweet as they could be. -
