The first weekend in October we are doing pet portraits at our good friend Ricky and Kathleen's shop The Hollywood Frame Gallery .  For the event Kathleen wanted us to do a full page ad in a local pet magazine.  So we started looking around for a "pet model" that would be good for the advertisement.  Denise found Linus, the 2 month old miniature daschund who's grandmother lives down the street from us.  Denise asked if they would let us borrow Linus for a full page ad and they were excited. 

Linus was so kind to grace us with his presence today.  He was an energetic little dog that really enjoyed playing with my camera. 

I had a great time playing with this little guy.  He finally was worn out and we called it a day.  The good thing was there were no accidents and everything was back to normal relatively quickly.  Its times like this that I get a real kick out of what I do.
