Throughout the year, we team up with professional Rhode Island photographer Meaghan Smith for some fun photoshoots with your dog! We hand craft each unique backdrop, so no holiday is ever exactly the same! Not to mention, we have the best bandanas in town courtesy of our friends at Two Spotted Pups. Your images are then edited and emailed to you as a digital download gallery within 7 days unless otherwise noted (but always before the major holiday!)

Your digital downloads are yours to keep however if you’d like to purchase prints, you can do so through the gallery! Meaghan Smith Photography donates a portion of print sales from the gallery back to We’re Here for the Dogs so we can continue our mission of helping rescues, help dogs.

All dogs are welcome — scared, shy, dog friendly, dog reactive — you name it, we work with it! How, you ask? Our shoots are specifically designed with all dogs in mind. The sessions are held in a closed off room where you and your pup(s) have 15 minutes of fame. You can even have your very own side entrance! If you would like to hear more about how we can cater to your fearful or reactive dog, please feel free to reach out to us.

These events do require an appointment, and they go FAST! Keep an eye on our Instagram page for more details! Sign ups typically open 3-4 weeks before the shoot.
