I find a constant source of inspiration in my freak pets; Bardo the (gigantic) male German shepherd, Panja, the (not so gigantic) female German shepherd and White-Paw the cat.
They crack me up on a daily basis and I adore just hanging out together in the woods of Sweden, where we live.
The Eklundh family have had many animals over the years: Sascha, Kitty and Maya (dogs), Lava and Ernst (cats) and Stampe (rabbit). As heart breaking as it is when they pass away it's such a sheer joy to live next to these stunning creatures the short time we have together.
I have a strong need to be close to animals. They make life understandable. They're not full of shit. They don't care about your greasy hair or social media.

Panja the pretty
Bardo is totally losing it after Panja harassed him one time too many!
Bardo the dog, eager to dig in
Sascha, a one of a kind dog that hung in there for nearly sixteen amazing years
Our beautiful Beauceron Maya, a French lady with an enormous power and dignity
Kitty (German shepherd/Rottweiler) a mighty lovely dog, to say the least, in the Swedish snow
