If you appreciate the work we do, please consider donating to one of these great canine nonprofit organizations!
Please use the photos with the DogSportsPhotos.org logo on them when posting to the Internet or social media. Feel free to tag the photographer or DogSportsPhotos.org when posting on Facebook.
The handler and owner of the pictured dog(s) are granted unlimited personal use of the photos for no cost. However, please consider a donation to one of the great canine nonprofit organizations listed below, as if you were purchasing the photos. That is to say, normally photographers ask between $8 – $35 per photo, so it would be great if you would donate what you would normally pay – but also, no worries if you can’t.
Please contact the photographer for all other uses.
Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation (WAIF)
![]() Sophie, the best dog who ever lived | WAIF is a non-profit which manages animal shelters in Coupeville and Oak Harbor. Through donations of time and money, WAIF operates with a life-saving philosophy to provide care for healthy, adoptable pets until they are placed into permanent, suitable homes. No animals are euthanized because of space or time considerations. The photographer for this event’s first dog, Sophie, was adopted from WAIF. |

Old Dog Haven is a small nonprofit group using a large network of foster homes to provide a loving safe home for abandoned senior dogs in western Washington. When we have room and the means, we take these dogs into our homes. We adopt out those dogs with a reasonable life-expectancy. We care for the rest as members of the family in permanent foster homes (what we call “Final Refuge”) for as long as they have good quality of life. In addition, we try to assist owners in finding new homes for their senior dogs through our website and referrals. |
