Always a Gentleman

National Dog Show Presented by Purina 2013

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.
