Interesting comment. I believe some animals enjoy having their pictures taken. My beloved Barney was like that - I would put an assortment of cut garden flowers in front of him, and he would stand there for around 15 minutes, until I got all the angles and shots I wanted. In his head, I could almost hear "oh here comes Mom with her camera again". My sister's chow comes running when she says "photo op" (opportunity). She right away turns and faces the camera and provides the most lovely expressions.

I think so, too. Or it's getting the animal used to the camera?

Bowdu's had a camera shoved in his face since the first day we got him. =) It's easy to take nice pictures of him. Bowpi is a little more difficult… part of it is her personality. She's more "submissive" so she avoids looking straight at me or anyone, and never holds her gaze. She's also very twitchy. Even when I don't think she's moving that much, pictures of her tend to be blurry. I never use flash with my little digital camera -- I think pictures come out a little better that way. But Bowpi's one reason I've been pining for a fancier camera, so I can capture finer movements.

Me too. I have been checking out the Boxing Day sale prices. I think with basenjis, a camera where you can adjust the shutter speed (to a faster one) is a good feature.
Also, if you are like me and are a little shaky it's almost an imperative feature.

Can we 'like' more than once?

I'll post a link on my Facebook page to get my friends/family to vote for Tillo.

No, you can only 'like' once.. A link on your FB page would be great!! We dropped to the 5th place.. so we need the extra votes!! I'm planning to use the photoshoot when Tillo's baby sister joins the family…. And I promise to post all the pics of the shoot here :D

For the ones who want to help a bit more: Please tag yourself in the picture and ask your FB friends to vote as well!! :D

(I'm never going to compete again.. my g.. I hate the begging.. ;))

Only 23 hours before voting stops! We need only a couple of votes to get a third place and win a photoshoot!!

Tillo is such a handsome B. I had to look at all of your pictures. When you show him is it in a pet class?

[Janneke]

We won a photoshoot!!! Yay!! Thanks to everyone who voted!! Tillo got a third place with 172 likes :)

Thank you :) Tillo is a champion, so he can be shown in champion class. We don't enter a lot of shows, Tillo prefers lure coursing, track racing and agility. ;)

Hooray! Tillo won third! Of course, I think he should have won first. :) Well done, Tillo and Janneke!

Well done Tillo - I knew I should have voted twice!!
