Portrait: Bud At Rest. Sadness And Peace

by Jon Katz

I love taking pictures of my dogs at rest; when dogs sleep, they reveal a side of themselves we often don’t see or appreciate. I think dogs sleeping is beautiful. Mystically, dogs send messages to me while they sleep, their spirits rising into the air. One day, I’ll do a show about dogs sleeping, maybe online. Bud has been through a lot; I see that in his weary and needy face when he sleeps.

There is a sadness about Bud sometimes, he is a happy dog in a happy place, but I sense he remembers harder times.

Fate us a crazy, hyper-active border collie. When she sleeps, she is transformed into a work of art, a thing of grace and beauty.

  1. I do believe that Fate, of all your dogs…..is truly transformed into a work of art when she is at rest. These *resting* photos of her are one of my favorites always
