HAIROLD’S PHOTO JOURNAL / SPRING 2022

Small paws.
Big little moments.

The puppy days: a soft blanket, a sleepy face, a nose that never quite stays out of the camera.

Photographed 15 March–1 April 2022 · Updated 1 October 2026

There is a lot of Hairold in these little moments. The curious looks. The enormous yawns. The way a tennis ball can become the most important thing in the room.

A very small hello.

A cosy passenger, paws stretched across a blanket, and a yawn that says it all. Between the curious looks, there is plenty of time to curl up.

02 / 20–25 March 2022

The world can wait.

A pause beneath a tree. A tiny step. A chair that is just the right size for a curl-up. Everyday places look a little different with Hairold in them.

03 / 29 March–1 April 2022

Important puppy business.

Keep the tennis ball close. Inspect the camera. Fall asleep among the toys. Some days, that is a very full schedule.

A heartbeat beside him.

His family bought a puppy comfort toy from Ren’s Pets with a battery-powered vibrating heartbeat. His owner remembers it helping him settle in his crate in the bedroom at night.
