Luv.

I truly believe that canines are capable of a love so unconditional, that humans cannot even understand the complexity of their emotions. Dogs look up to their humans in the way than humans look to God, and I think there is something very special about the unwavering trust and affection dogs and humans share.

Originally, I had planned a different shot displaying the love between a disabled man and his St. Bernard, Love, however, try as I might, I could not find them in their usual hangout spots, so I had to go with Plan B.

Dogs live in the now, they are completely unconcerned with the past or present, therefore, a dog being left to his own devices with a nearly empty peanut butter jar is the perfect portrayal of obsessive unshakable love, at least until the jar is empty.

“You think dogs will not be in heaven? I tell you, they will be there long before any of us.” ~Robert Louis Stevenson
