HOW TO PHOTOGRAPH YOUR PUPPY

Remove film from box and load camera.
Remove film box from puppy's month and throw in trash.
Remove puppy from trash and brush coffee grounds from muzzle.
Choose a suitable background for photo.
Mount camera on tripod, check flash and focus.
Find puppy and take dirty sock from mouth.
Place puppy in pre-focused spot and return to camera.
Forget about spot and crawl after puppy on knees.
Focus with one hand while fending off puppy with other hand.
Get tissue and clean nose print from lens.
Put cat outside and put peroxide on the scratch on puppy's nose. Put magazines back on coffee table.
Try to get puppy's attention by squeaking toy over your head.
Replace your glasses and check camera for damage.
Jump up in time to grab puppy by scruff of neck and say- "No, no outside!"
Call spouse to help clean up the mess.
Fix a drink.
Sit back in chair, put your feet up, sip your drink and resolve to teach puppy "sit" and "stay" the first thing in the morning.

LOL umm yeah...that was Nebo!! Luckily, he's a bit better now. :D Afterall, that camera is in his face 24/7! lol

That's cute!! Mine like to "pose", but they're a little older than pups.

Isn't that the truth?! Drake has gotten alot better now about posing. It was a nightmare trying to get pictures of him when he was a puppy!

That is really a cute story! It makes it nice now that I never have to load film with my digital camera! One less step to deal with!

I don't have a lot of baby photos of Maggie. Everytime she heard the camera lens cover whirr, she would get excited and start tearing around the house. It was very hard to get her to sit still for a photo! She still does not like the camera, and when she sees it she looks away. My other two dogs don't care if I take a hundred photos of them. Maybe it is a breed thing.

Hint: get camera ready in another room, walk quietly in where puppy is then be quick before the shot is gone!

I just read this at another website. I thought it was funny enough to bump this thread back up. :D The one that I read has one more line:

Consider adopting an "older, rescue" dog.

That was cute, I never had that problem though. Tango has always posed nicely for the camera.
