We met at Roane County Park, which served as both a scenic backdrop and a natural playground. Percy strutted her stuff in true Vols spirit, proudly repping her orange as she explored trails, sniffed out every squirrel, and posed like she knew exactly who the star was.

While her solo shots were full of personality, it was the images with her humans that told the real story. There’s a certain look dogs give when they’re with their people—relaxed, proud, utterly secure. Percy had it in spades. There’s even a bit of attitude in the way she carries herself, like she’s saying, “These two are my ride or die—and I dare you to mess with them.”
