Photos. Or not.



We had beautiful weather this weekend. Which meant that Elroy was introduced to his first ever Canine Holiday Photo Shoot. We knew it was coming - my human had visited the dreaded Dollar Store AKA House of Canine Torture Attire, several weeks ago.  AND we knew Halloween was coming. So just imagine the scene...with the dog who has an attention span of a gnat...

Frodo and I are used to this drudgery. The ONLY good thing about the embarrassing debacle is the fact that my human goes out of her way to get EXTRA tasty treats for these things. She went and got these things called Honey Beefers. They are locally made all natural treats - made from dehydrated liver and they contain real Nova Scotia honey.  Now we like ANY treats - let's face it - but we are extra attentive when she pulls out the Honey Beefers. So my human was well equipped and was prepared with a variety of strange noises to grab our attentions.  Frodo and I have heard them all before but she was hoping to capture a "look" from Elroy - even for a split second.  Because that's really all you get with him.

First she attempted some non-attired shots. There were 1638 of those before she got a couple of decent versions. Then she pulled out the attire. She got a few shots with Frodo and I wearing, what was thankfully rather basic garb, and then she attempted to outfit Elroy. The resultant bloopers are more fun than the desired image. But you'll have to wait until we are a bit closer to Halloween to see them. And knowing my human, she'll try for a few more before then. The things we dogs put up with...

Boo humbug.
