Award-winning pet photographer Greg Murray is back with a fresh collection that’s as adorable as it is funny. Known worldwide for his iconic Peanut Butter Dogs and Peanut Butter Puppies photobooks – featuring rescued pups with priceless, peanut butter-covered expressions – dogs remain the heart and soul of Greg’s work.
It’s worth mentioning that Greg has spent over a decade photographing shelter animals, with many of his photo projects directly contributing to helping his four-legged models find new, loving homes. Each of his images highlight the unique personality behind every wagging tail and soulful gaze.

Meet my friends S’more and Oreo! They came to visit Cleveland all the way from Rhode Island for the solar eclipse and had a photo shoot while they were in town. I’m going to pretend they came to see me first and foremost and it just so happened we were in the path of totality.

Is it me, or does Beatrix look like a plush toy? She took a bit to warm up during our session, but once she did, we got some amazing shots like this! As much as I love getting the smiles and tongues out, I love a straight-on, no facial expression photo, too. The eyes say so much.

See Dutton from a whole new angle.
This scruffy stunner brought the paws, the personality, and the perfect toe beans to the “under dog” portion of his studio shoot.
How is it done? Dog on glass about 4 ft off of the ground, camera right below and lights coming from the left and right. And some glass cleaner!

Smiling Ghost or Serious Ghost? Which one is your favorite?
Ghost, who lives in Lakewood, Ohio, was rescued and adopted from the Cleveland APL in 2019, a year after the ban on pit-bull type dogs was ended in the city. It’s always so fun and meaningful to photograph a dog who lives in my hometown of Lakewood, where they wouldn’t have been welcome between 2008-2018.

Once in a while, I’ll be out and about and I’ll run into a dog or other animal who I immediately want to photograph.

Same dog! 6 years apart!
From puppy zoomies to wise whiskers. Hammy came to my studio as a tiny rescue pup 6 years ago, and today he returned as the distinguished gentleman he is now—same sweet face, just a little more silver. Seeing animals in my studio that I photographed years ago is such a gift.
