Kitchi and Casey

Behind every great dog trainer are the dogs who inspire them every day. Kitchi and Casey belong to Lori-lee, the talented trainer behind Your Happy Dog Coach, and these two were true professionals. It's easy to see exactly why these beautiful ladies mean the world to Lori-lee. Capturing this wonderful duo was an absolute honor.

Both dogs have such special histories that make them unique. Seven-year-old Kitchi hails from a fly-in reserve called Little Grand Rapids in Manitoba, boasting 17 breeds in her DNA test. Her younger sister Casey, born in December 2021, came all the way from Iqaluit, Nunavut, with 23 breeds in her heritage!

Throughout this session, we kept things relaxed and captured Kitchi and Casey in their natural, playful ways. Whether they were splashing wildly along the beach, sprinting full speed after their favorite balls, or running straight at the camera lens to give it a little boop, their energy was pure joy.
