Hey Lyn - welcome back to YT, btw!
There will always be shutter lag, no matter what camera you have. Here is a thread about shutter lag:

And here is an article/chart about lag time too:
Different Shutter Lags for Different Cameras
I know exactly what you mean, I think dogs are
really tough to get pics of. The real key is first deciding beforehand what your goal is - ie, portrait pics or action pics? If portrait, then you can try using wider apertures (for background blur etc) and everything - but keep treats near you - hold your camera in your dominant hand - and hold treat in other hand, up near the camera - to bring dog's attention up near the lens - AND to get their ears in the best "perky" position (due to treat presence). The presence of a treat can help w/ avoiding those back-of-head pics - but still - it's tough to hold their attention, I know. Out of 20-30 shots, I have 1 okay one, if lucky.
If action pics - then you usually use much different settings (faster settings).
Are you wanting to stay in point-and-shoot, or DSLR?
