BZ Dogs: My Boys

Henry and Toby

Dog Blog Post #2402

The first "successful" shoot with both boys - as in, both dogs are reasonably in focus and mostly in the picture.

The biggest difference between today there being a picture and Thursday there wasn't is that today Henry stayed.

Eventually.

It did take a few tries, which is why everything is shifted a bit to the right - I didn't get Henry back in exactly the same spot and I didn't take the time (and risk Henry moving) to recenter the camera.

Toby is still a work in progress, and is "managed" more than cued.

He knows that he needs to sit to get the Kibbles, but the fact I have a whole 1/4c scoop of Kibbles at hand (instead of just a Kibble or two) seems to be more distraction than he can stand at this point.

Next time I will switch to the training fanny pack (worn forward) and "hide" the Kibbles in there and see if that doesn't help.

Baby steps... or is that Puppy steps?

Henry is being a great Great Uncle, and Toby is as sweet as can be.

FWIW: I think Henry heard a noise in the house, which is why his ears are forward and he's gaze is a bit off - but I'll take it!
