Dogs in Action Workshop

It’s been over 10 years since I last updated this blog. Time to start posting again!

At the beginning of May I attended a workshop in Quebec City with Claudio Piccoli https://www.claudiopiccoli.com

Focus was on shooting dogs in action and the post=processing of those images. The organizers provided models for two days of shooting. Here are a few images from day 1

Laurie’s poodles

Laurie brought in a scratchboard sketch of a poodle that she liked. We experimented a little to see what we could come up with. These are her choices from the session. The top one of Rainey is my favourite. They are to be printed on metal panels.

St Lazare CKC Trial

It’s been a while since my last blog – time flies by too quickly!
The weekend of 13-14 August was spent at the airport site in St Lazare, Quebec. The Club Agiite Canin St Lazare held their annual CKC agility trial.
Here are a few selections from the weekend.

BDOC HiT of HiTs 2011

Saturday saw the 17th annual HiT of HiTs competition at the Fred Barratt Arena.
All Candid shots are now online and ready for order at http://www.muddypawz.net/html_site/hitofhits11/

Congratulations to Helen Walker and her golden retriever Katie on winning the HiT from the novice class, beating last year’s winner, Louise Bastien who was competing in both Open and Utility. The final heeling pattern was devised and called by Mike Calhoun and it had quite a few people scratching their heads when they saw lines of black tape being set down on the ground!

All was revealed as the competitors were asked to “walk the line”

Special memtion has to be made to “People’s Choice” winner Kate Derbyshire and her whippet Jimmy. Jimmy came back from the retrieve and did a perfect front and finish – in front of judge Jim Ham!
