For my photo essay I decided to follow my dog, Hershey, around. I decided to follow my dog around because she is a character, and because it would be easy to take pictures of her since I live with her. The first picture of Hershey is just her being photogenic. Hershey is six years old and was a rescue dog. We got her when she was just ten months old. When we first got her, she was very skiddish and afraid. She was very skinny and did not like me very much. Today, she is very friendly, very spunky, however she still does not like men in hats for some reason.  Hershey loves to take pictures. Hershey also loves to go on walks. I can say “walk” and Hershey will go running around the house like a crazed dog. The second picture I took on our daily walks to the mailbox. The bush in the picture she smells everyday. It is so hard to get her away from that bush. I have to use everything I have to get her to walk away from it. The third picture of Hershey is her sleeping. I had so many different pictures of Hershey sleeping, but this picture best describes her sleeping habitat. Hershey takes naps every hour of the day. She likes to nap anywhere and everywhere. This picture of Hershey takes place in my room next to my bed. Hershey is sleeping on her doggy bed, leaning on my bed. I can put that bed anywhere and Hershey will sleep on it. Without the bed, Hershey acts like a lost dog and doesnn’t know where to sleep. The fourth picture is of Hershey playing. In this picture, Hershey took the ball and threw it up in the air, signaling she wanted to play. Hershey is a lazy dog, however, and does not play very long. She is a lazy dog, once she gets tired, she stops and lays down. The next picture is of Hershey resting in the shade looking into the pool with fascination. Just before this picture was taken, Hershey jumped into the pool and went for a little swim. It took Hershey forever to learn how to get into the pool, often times she was too scared to go in. Now, Hershey just jumps in any chance she gets. The last picture of Hershey is her laying on me. Hershey likes to lay on her victims so they will be forced to continue petting her.
