Always a Gentleman

I LOVE this image from The National Dog Show Presented by Purina. If only all of my dog photography images could have such simple composition and clean lines! I love the gentle way that the handler is holding the lead and the focus of the dog’s attention on the bait in her right hand. The Boston Terrier is not a member of the Terrier Group, as you might think, but is instead a member of the Non-Sporting Group. They are nicknamed “The American Gentleman” because they are truly an All-American breed (originating in Boston, Massachusetts) that has a gentle personality and dapper appearance. Don’t forget to tune in to The National Dog Show Presented by Purina on NBC immediately following the Macy’s Parade on Thanksgiving Day.
