Candice C. Cusic Photography

I created The See Hear Love Project to help animals like Blanca.
Painfully shy. Dumped on a road before the rain came. Nervous around strangers. Ears down. Tail tucked.
For those new to the project, these are not carefree, well-adjusted animals. Many have experienced neglect, abandonment, fear, or loss.
Sometimes we only get one photograph when they truly relax.
Thankfully, we only need one.
Please visit my page to see Blanca's full story.
Special thanks to for bringing Blanca to The See Hear Love Project.
"All I want
is to feel loved and safe."

Avalanche didn’t start life this way.
Rescued from a hoarding situation through , his world was once crowded, uncertain, and far from safe.
But something beautiful happened—
his foster saw him… and never let him go.
Avalanche is now home.
