Julie, thanks so much for the feedback, I am learning so much from you and Jim about show photography. So far, all my pet work as been with "pets" but I am learning so I can be prepared for the day when I do a "show dog".

My next purchase is for some backdrops, I have the black and white, now I would like to get an ole master brown, a gray and maybe a blue. I may even try my hand at making my own-pre made ones in 20 ft lengths are a bit pricey.
