puppy wont stay still for photos

Post by ridgebackowner »

ok

I promised photos but am finding it hard to keep him still every time I take a photo he keeps moving and I end up with just his tail or bottom :oops: . what can I do to get him to stay still?

other than that he is great and the scratching on the sofa has stopped :D

I also need advice in general chat please

Wait until he's asleep :lol: or eating. I can't say "use a faster film" now that we are all using digicams.

Someone here suggested starch.....

Can you hold the treat above the camera?

Forget about getting him to pose for now. Teach him 'wait' and/or 'watch' and in the fullness of time, he'll develop enough maturity to hold the pose even when you point a camera at him.
