Paws & Presence Project
The bond between women and dogs is often seen as deeply intuitive and nurturing. For many women, dogs are not just loyal companions but also sources of unconditional love, protection, and emotional support. This connection reflects a mutual caregiving dynamic—women, often seen as natural nurturers, care for their dogs with a blend of affection and responsibility. In return, dogs offer unwavering, non-judgmental love and companionship.
This photo project highlights the shared qualities of strength, loyalty, and gentleness that both women and large dogs embody, though they are often recognized for just one aspect of these traits, each on opposite ends of the spectrum.
