Had I attempted to take this photo in the house or in the yard, I would not have been successful. They boys aren't allowed in my studio - we have a puppy gate keeping them out. The only time they can go "in" there is when we're taking photos of them.
I really need to book them a session on my calendar and treat them like any other customer . . . lol.
We just came inside from trimming their ears, anal area, foot pads and the hair that falls on the floor around their feet. Carter is getting so much more cooperative with that gig -- Cooper is still resisting since this was only his 2nd grooming in the 3 weeks he's been with us. Cooper gets a belly trim too since he seems to always get his belly wet when he potties.
They are both probably a little better presentable for the camera now that they are cleaned up a bit.
