Photographing Pets

[Pea-n-Me]

Can play by himself all day and only likes to chew up paper.

That's so funny, because "our" Shiba used to do the same thing! We thought it was because of circumstances - BIL took him to work with him and on the way always got a Dunkin Donuts coffee. Every day the dog would chew the cup to shreds, LOL. Never a problem with that dog, what a nice little personality. I'm glad you're enjoying your dog.

Danauk, beautiful pictures. What kind of camera did you buy? And please tell us about where you live. I am a big James Herriot fan - are you in Yorkshire? (I bet there are other Herriot fans here too. )

At one time this was in my signature, but I didn't want to get in trouble for going over the limits so I took it out:

As per request of Pea_n_me here is a picture of my shih tzu and persian hanging out on the couch...

they are really good friends...and yes the cat pretty much always looks that evil...

Don't have any new pics, but here is my fav of Dash right after we brought him home

Here he is on his first birthday (last June)

I love all these pictures of your pets!

CookieGVB makes a pet calendar every year for Desert Paws, an animal shelter. You might want to consider sending these to her for the 2008 edition.

To all you pet photographers --

Your pictures are priceless -- each face is more gorgeous than the next!

Every year, CookieGVB makes a pet calendar for Desert Paws, an animal shelter in CA. Please, please, please pm her with some of those pictures!! And tell her I sent you --

Danauk, beautiful pictures. What kind of camera did you buy? And please tell us about where you live. I am a big James Herriot fan - are you in Yorkshire? (I bet there are other Herriot fans here too. )

Thanks for the compliment, I bought a Kodak c875, it is nothing too fancy (8mp, 5x optical zoom), but it had $180 off in the sale!!

Right now I live in the middle of England, about an hour from London on the train. I don't live in Yorkshire now, but grew up there and all my family still live there. I take it you like All creatures great and small? I have been to the location in is filmed in many times (my parents have a holiday home near there), plus my grandad was friends with the guy who owned the car the vets drove so I have been in that too (when I was much, much, much younger!!) I saw them filming a few times too.

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Thanks, Fergie. She was on the Photgraphing Pets thread a few pages back and some of us posted on her calendar thread. What a nice gesture to benefit the animals.

 

[FergieTCat]

I didn't catch that!! Glad to see she got some pics.

 

[Danauk]

I've sent her a PM.

 

[CookieGVB]

Thanks for the plug...and the photos!

I'm actually back on the CB with a thread as well:

Wow, how lucky you are! It's such a beautiful country. I hope to visit someday with my family.

I'm glad you got such a good deal on your camera. It seems to take a very nice picture.

I just love this picture! Thanks for posting it.

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Loving all of these beautiful pictures, please keep em coming!

SleepyMom, nice to see a big picture of Dash. He reminds me a lot of my new "nephew" - actually the dog that replaced the Shiba I mentioned on the previous page. He and my dog get along well and go for long walks together - quite the pair.

I just took this tonight, just playing around. Not sure if it technically good, but it seemed ok to me. What do you think?

These are a couple of photos of my German Shepherd, Charlotte, who is 2 years old. She isn't a rescue dog. Her favourite playmate is Beatrice (Bea for short), who is a Golden. Bea is also 2 years old, and as you can see, she loves nothing more than getting dirty! The dirtier the better, in her opinion!
Bea is owned by a friend, who got her from a breeder at 13 months of age. She has a heart murmur and was unsuitable for showing or breeding - all the better for Bea, I'd say!!!

Oh yes, and they all bark with an Aussie accent...

Ok...so I've been looking at everyone's adorable pet pics and decided I would try and share mine-I've never posted pics before, so hopefully this works

My baby Grace at about 4 weeks...I rescued her at only 2 weeks old from my Uncles farm-something had bitten her neck (the hole was about the size of my thumbnail, on such a tiny kitten it was almost the whole front of her neck!) and it was infected; I brought her home, cleaned out her "wound" and put antibiotic ointment on gauze pads which I wrapped loosely around her neck. I fed her kitten formula w/a bottle every 3 hours (including getting up twice a night) She's great now though-all healed up and the sweetest girl!

This is Cassie, our little "old lady" she'll be 15 in June.

MIA: Freckles the wonder-dog, Squeakers the silent cat, and the fish

I realize that these aren't the greatest shots, but they're what I have on this computer-I just got a new camera for my birthday so I'll have to try and get up some better pics. Also, I can't quite figure out why some of these look so big-I changed the size on photobucket on all of them, but it seemed to only work for some

 

[Pea-n-Me]

Nice pictures, Jess. Sometimes on Photobucket there's a lag time in posted pictures showing up the right size, but eventually they're ok.

Furgus (ie Mr Nikonian) are you being a wise guy? Let's see some better shots of your cat. I know you can do it. (Are you still mad because I said I like the Yankees? )
