Camera Shy B??

Basenji Talk
  • If I point the camera ANYWHERE near meeka she turns her head and buries it in whatever she can! If i keep trying she keeps turning her head away, or eventually just runs away. Its so funny, but at the same time i want some good pics of her!! I didnt know dogs could be camera shy.. anyone have a camera shy B??

    I caught her offguard and got one of her! I think she just woke up and didnt know I was trying to take a picture!

  • Do you use the flash when you snap her photos?
    Maybe it's the light – try taking pics w/out the flash a few times.

    Maybe even click the camera and give her a treat. You may wind up getting really cute perked up photos {eventually} if she thinks that clicking noise means FOOD!

  • Oh - yeah– and this is an adorable photo!

  • Didn't know if was even possible with Basenji's… My dogs are camera whores! ;)

  • Ruby is camera shy…I swear she runs away when the camera comes out. Unfortunately for her, I finally got a digital camera for Christmas:D :D.

    I think I only have a few pics of her that actually look like her because most of the time she turns her head or does something funny with her face because she doesn't like the camera.

  • She may be camera shy, but that is a cute picture and she is a pretty girl…what we can see of her! :D

  • EL D is kind of like that. Not exactly camera shy. As soon as he hears me turn on the camera he starts to act up and won't sit nice or else shoves his nose in the camera. I've only got a few really decent pictures of him. :(

    The coat looks gorgeous - it's just the skin…I have noticed since it is persisting it down here (and cold - well it is Summer...) that the flaking is much better - I wonder if the flat is too dry for him? It has got central heating...which is till occasionally switched on - and it's nearly June :(

    Abbey was almost banned from my son's house after she killed the cat's feather on a stick thingy. We don't have our own cat although she'd like to have one of her own. She loves cats!

    I'll second that.. being 5 ft myself, having a bunch of ppl who are sig. taller stand all about you can be very abrasive.

    They are called Diastix. Some drug stores still carry them, but many have to special order them. You can find them online though.

    All three pups sleep in bed with us. We bought two double beds and stuck them togeather so we could all fit. It's still crowded. My next dog IS going to sleep in a crate!
