A few days ago, I had the enormous honor and pleasure of documenting an event that took place in my city's park. It was a 2 kilometer dog race organized with the aim of raising funds and food for a dog shelter that is in charge of helping and giving a home to more than 100 dogs, so this help was extremely beneficial for them
In addition to contributing a couple of kilos of dog food, my job was to photograph and document the entire event!
Portraits Before the Race
The first thing I did when I arrived was to take a portrait of everyone with their pets. I made sure that everyone had at least 1 photography; everyone loves a good photo with their canine child:
Portraits of Some Dogs
I love all animals with all my heart, and you can't imagine how happy I was taking photographs of all these dogs who were too affectionate and adorable!!
The Race
To prevent the race from becoming a disaster and to maintain organization, it was divided into several groups. First, the puppies (under 1 year old) started running:
The winner was her and her Miniature Pinscher dog:
The next race was for Border Collie dogs:
The man in the following photography only walked because his dog was already old and couldn't run:
And to finish, they held a race with all the dogs, but they started at different time intervals. I photographed them all!
It was incredible to see a man over 60 years old running with his dog!
And the lady in the following photography was also walking with her elderly dog; you could say they were both the same age!
The Award Ceremony
At the end of the race, the participants were awarded their respective medals:
The Result of It All!
Every person who participated in this event gave their contribution to the animal shelter, and I am proud to say that the goal was met and even exceeded. Of the 100 kilos of food that were expected to be collected, a total of 350 kilos of food were collected. The satisfaction of everyone was incredible. Thanks to all these people, more than 100 dogs will have food for approximately 1 month!!
I hope you enjoyed seeing the documentation of this beautiful event and that it warmed your heart as much as it did mine. Thank you for everything!
