The Jamaica Kennel Club in association with Pedigree held its championship dog show two Sundays ago, where the best of the best breeds, performers, and their handlers were recognised. Last week we showed the awardees, this week we highlight some more dog scenes captured by photographer Karl McLarty.

Cute Sam

My baby’s name is Sam Joy Johnson (see picture above). He is the cutest kitty ever. He is my bundle of joy. Early in the mornings he wakes me up with a kiss or a tap of his paw. He stays with me if I am not well and keeps me company and alerts someone when he wants his food. We all treat him as one of the family. He is my loving baby boy. — Mary

Send us your pets

Do you have a cute dog that you absolutely love? Or are you into fur balls — cute cats that purr? Turtles, guinea pigs, snakes, perhaps? Are iguanas your ‘cup of tea’? Or do you own something fascinatingly exotic? Does your pet — no matter how big or small, no matter the species — represent an extension of you, a big part of your life that you must share with others? Send us photos of your pets (and yourself, if you wish) and tell us why you love them and why you chose them, and we’ll reserve a space in Pets just for your loving companion. Send pictures by e-mail to clarkep@jamaicaobserver.com.
