i used to take pet portraits for people. Got pretty good at making unusual noises to get the dog's expression. With horses, an umbrella slowly opening works wonders! But dogs, like kids, get bored quickly. In my experience if you don't get "that" shot in the first minute or so, you won't. But some are real hams and love the camera! Basenjis generally are very photogenic. 🙂
Show off those tails

I love it! Jazzy is into floral design!
Love the Naruto ninja collar on the second tri, my daughter would be totally into that.
Those tails are so cute!

Our dog has great Chackra but needs to work on his Ninjustu, but is proficiant in his taijustu.

Oooh, definitely Genin material!

I've suffered through Barney, Bananas In Pajamas, & Power Rangers (I was lucky to dodge the Tellitubies)
Naruto & Bleach are two of the Anime's I actually enjoy as an adult.
-
Oh yes. We were in Barney's clutches for years. I am lucky now as she likes anime a lot, and I enjoy some of the titles as well. We are big Naruto fans, she likes Bleach as well, plus Miyazaki's films.
If Athena had been a boy dog, she would probably have named him Haku or Ashitaka!

Here's two pictures of Savannah's tail. This is her "normal" tail and the second one was when she had a strange bout of "down tail". Her tail went down for about 2-1/2 weeks. I don't know what caused it. Then it went back up again. Thank goodness. We love her little cinna-bun tail.
-
Love the cinnabun look!
Her tail went down for about 2-1/2 weeks. I don't know what caused it. Then it went back up again.
Our red female had the same thing happen, but hers was limp for only about a week. We thought either she was slightly sick or just depressed?
She had no sick symptoms at the time?

Lexi's Turn… After all, one good turn, deserves another!
-
PS- The first B has THE curliest tail I've ever seen!! SOOO CUTE!
-
Someone hates to have her picture taken!
-
Regarding Savannah's limp tail, she didn't have any visible symptoms of illness either. Someone told me that if she was cold, her tail could go down and another person said that often show dogs' tails will go down if they are nervous, scared or cold. The night before her tail went limp, she took a sip from my husband's glass of red wine (which was on the floor). The next day her tail was down. Who knows, but maybe that was it.

Someone told me that if she was cold, her tail could go down
I live in Chicago and I can tell you thats just plain wrong!
Ours goes down when she is scared, but not for more than a few minutes.
-
It also straightens out when running flat out. She's faster than our male but he has greater endurance and always gets her in the end
-
When Savannah is scared, her tail will go limp but its only for a few minutes. So, if it wasn't the cold, then I guess her tail got drunk.
-
Lexi's goes down for a number of reasons- she's scared, SUPER relaxed, or not feeling well. It's not always a bad thing though. And theirs always flattens out when they run! So funny! Miles's tail has a kink in it; I'll have to hold him down and take a pic of it… maybe tonight.
