# Visiting Kayden

Two weekends ago we went up to St. Paul and visited Kayden and his family. Kayden is a really happy dog who just loves people and being around people. It was a lot of fun seeing him, and his people too. I need some practice on photographing such a large dog. I'm not in love with any of these photos…

Two weekends ago we went up to St. Paul and visited Kayden and his family. Kayden is a really happy dog who just loves people and being around people. It was a lot of fun seeing him, and his people too. I need some practice on photographing such a large dog. I'm not in love with any of these photos but I thought I'd share them anyhow. Cheese curd! Kayden and his "baby". Kayden does not destroy his toys, he grooms baby a lot though, she has been around for six months: Kayden tries to eat my arm. He leaves a lot of slobber on you when you play with him, not used to the whole slobbery dog thing. Kayden and his people, he loves to be on the couch: A few out in the snow: Kayden also shares his home with some cats. He wants to play with them, but they aren't so interested in playing with him. Sampson: Oleo:

I love the yawning cat! Kayden is adorable. He looks like a big goof. I love his face.

Don't sell yourself short man. I think you did a great job shooting Kayden and his people. I especially like the first one and the one of him and his baby. Of course the family portrait is awesome too. They make one great looking family. :-)

I love the picture with Kayden on the couch and in the snow! And that Kayden has a baby makes me really adore him even more!

Brandon!!!

Thank You!!! I really appreciate all the time you spent taking photos, you did a great job, i know it took away some valuable Eating and Beer drinking time but you did it any way, thanks (truly). You did a great job of capturing Kayden at his goofy finest, and you got Sampson and Oleo just right. Thanks man

Those are great photos! I love the first shot of Sampson, the last one of Oleo, Kayden & baby, and the family portrait.

Yes Osy, every now and then someone else picks up my camera and fires off a shot with me in it. Thanks everyone. Kayden really is a goofy dog, completely unaware of his enormous size.

## KFontaine04 · 2009-01-28T10:21:02.000Z
I love big goofy dogs that think they are not giant.
