Some dogs are really difficult. I keep show leads around to keep difficult ones under control. It is so much easier to PS a show lead out, than sweat and try to get a dog under control. I usually just have the owner stand to the side out of the photos and hold the lead.

I'd also shoot even with the dog or down a little bit. Looking up on it gives a funny effect




Thanks for the advice. Shooting up on an animal is just my style. I prefer to use different perspectives in my photography. I do shoot at even eye level also, but I prefer not to shoot down on an animal, again that is just my personal preference.
I will try that lead tip though,sounds like a good idea. D'Byrd Photography
