Where do I start about Wally? He loves the camera. Wally walked over to me and started posing as I snapped shot after shot of his cute little head.
He came to Project HALO covered in matted fur and they shaved him down to make him comfortable. Less fur does not mean less personality; this little guy is full of spunk and love.
My favorite part about Wally is not just his ability to cuddle at any time, but his little legs. I love how he stands like a dancer in perfect form.
Wally would make a great addition to any home. He’s such a charmer!

Nugget doesn’t care for the paparazzi like most HALO pups. As soon as the camera came out Nugget gave me the cold shoulder.
But I didn’t mind waiting around for her to warm up to me. And once she did, it was all smiles.
Nugget is a black lab mix who is being currently fostered by some really awesome folks. It doesn’t take long to fall in love with her.

Maybe it’s because I had a malti-poo for a brief time in my childhood, or maybe it’s because she’s so sweet, but Princess really tugged on my heart at the adoption event. She’s very calm and quiet, but very playful once she is around the other dogs, regardless if they are big or even small. She is almost a year old, but reminds me of an old-soul.

You might think you are seeing doubles on the blog, but Roxy is still searching for a home. She is a very sweet dog with awesome wrinkles on her head. I could see her in a home that enjoys long walks or a huge backyard. So, who needs a running partner?

Instead of tons of pictures in one post, I decided to feature each HALO dog on their own post. All pictures were taken at the adoption event at Birkdale Village in Huntersville, NC. The events are held monthly on the third Saturday of the month.
We’ll start with Fluffy.
Fluffy lives up to his name. He is super cute and so soft to pet. He loves sitting in laps and getting loved on.

A few weeks ago, Project HALO held an adoption event at Birkdale Village. There were lots of wonderful adoptable dogs and even some super sweet puppies. Here are a few featured at the event. If you missed this last event, not to worry! Project HALO will be back at Birkdale Village in Huntersville, NC this Saturday at 11:30 AM. Please come out and see all the fuzzy faces and maybe even take one home. Hope to see you there!

As you can tell, I am a little behind in posting. Hopefully I can get back on track shortly. Here are some pictures from Bark in the Park 2009 at the Knights Stadium in Fort Mill, SC.
Buster, the first dog showcased here stole my heart. He is cute, small and such a cuddlier. He is also this month’s featured pet for Project HALO.
Next up from Project HALO is Trump. He’s a little shy, but eventually he warmed up to the crowd and me snapping away.
Our last fuzzy friend at the park is Piper. She’s so sweet and loved getting belly rubs. Well, what dog doesn’t, right?
Project HALO is a wonderful organization. If you need a partner in crime or just a snuggle buddy, please check them out. The have lots of volunteer opportunities available on the website and also through their Facebook Group. Upcoming adoption events are on their website, so make sure you check it out to see where you can spot what could be your new best friend.
While on the subject of cute dogs, here are a few extra pictures shot from Bark in the Park. From the biggest…
to the most wrinkles.

Project HALO came out to Bark in The Park this past Sunday. Lots of cute barking pups and a little rain didn’t stop the Charlotte Knights from showing everyone how to play ball. More pictures coming soon.

Last year, a friend told me about Project HALO. They needed help with animals rescued from a neglectful owner. This really sang to my heart since we have two dogs at home, one of which is a rescue. I really loved being able to help out by providing clean bedding, food and some snuggles. This past weekend, Project HALO had an adoption event at Birkdale Village in Huntersville, NC. All the dogs were super friendly and loved the attention from the humans and the camera. Here are a few dogs up for adoption.
The next adoption event is this week, April 23, 2009 at the Wachovia Atrium in uptown Charlotte from 11:30am-1:30pm.
A special thanks to April Ziegler and for all the work she does with the PSPCA and her inspiration to give back to our four-legged friends through photography.
Project HALO is a non-profit, NO-KILL rescue organization based in Charlotte, N.C. They are a 100% volunteer organization and are privately funded. Without volunteers and private donations they would not exist. They rescue homeless, stray and unwanted dogs. They take care of all the vet work including shots, sterilization and heartworm treatment, when necessary. All of Project HALO’s animals are vet current and sterilized prior to adoption.
