Photo Series Highlights Wonderful Pets With Disabilities

| Published on August 24, 2015

Alex Cearns, owner of Houndstooth Studio is changing what people perceive as beautiful when it comes to pets with disabilities. Her new series “Perfect Imperfection,” highlights all types of animals – from goats to birds – that have some type of disability. Some are missing a limb, some are missing both eyes – all are beautiful.

Cearns uses her photography to help rescued and homeless animals that are often overlooked – like black dogs or those with disabilities – get rescued by revealing the beauty within through her photography.

We think these dogs and cats are just perfect. Don’t you?
