There is something about a dog’s paws. Don’t ask me what it is exactly, because I hardly know myself. All I can tell you is that they never fail to capture my attention. Whenever Rory is curled up snoozing I can’t help but snuggle up to her and sniff her warm woolly paws. Yes, yes, it sounds crazy, but don’t judge. Her paws smell like freshly popped popcorn minus the butter — I swear! It’s almost like that wonderful puppy smell that so many a pet owner knows, lives on in a dog’s paws for their entire life. 

This morning I’d like to share a captivating little photo series called ‘Paws’ by Ottawa based Tina Picard Photography that celebrates the canine foot. The gorgeous series is devoted to the pitter-patter of paws that sound when out and about on the streets. What I love most about these photos is that they evoke an element of real newness from the pet world and beg the question, “Where are those furry paws headed?”
