This evolved out of the rather humorous spectacles my wife and I were witnessing at my son's 7th grade lacrosse games this season. She suggested that during lulls in the sports action I try to photograph some of the dogs folks were bringing to the games. All the shots are completely candid and spontaneous. Here's a link to my "Dogs of Lacrosse" album (seven images so far):

And here's a little teaser from the album:

My 'pet' theory (pun intended) is there are many reasons people may have for bringing their dogs to an outdoor sporting event, but chief among them is that they want to be seen with their beloved pet dog of whom they are so proud, and they want others to notice. Well, I noticed.
