A beautiful fall evening finds Hu-Dad taking photos of Roscoe for the blog, but how close is too close for a good picture?
After over 4,000 posts here at The Thundering Herd, the dogs have become quite the professional models. On most days, Hu-Dad breaks out the camera and captures life as it happens. But on slow days, he grabs a willing subject and gives the “look cute” command. Amazingly, the dogs ham it up for the camera more often than not (Typhoon falls in the not category a lot).
Unfortunately, they don’t always understand focal point and personal space, so sometimes come a little too close to the camera to get a good tight focus. And how close is too close?
P.S. – Happy October!

Canine Kitchen Flood
March 19, 2023
One of my dogs had an accident which resulted in a canine kitchen flood. No, no, not the way you just imagined. He’s more creative than that.
Way Back Wednesday
Each week, we reach back into our vault of over 4,700 previous posts and share a favorite. We hope you enjoy this look back.
The Queen and Decorum
Even after a long hike, a Queen must always avoid a fashion faux pas like, say, an out of place tongue. No, the Queen and Decorum are intact.
I’ve seen the first look on our Corgi’s face more times than I can count. For her it’s more like why are you speaking to me?
Happy October.. and nice teeth and gums as well
Roscoe looks good from a dental perspective, too!
My Huskies are Hams, most the time. My Shepherd falls under the category of “nope, not today”. Sadly he’s old, and time is short. I bet I have 1photo of him for every 10 of my fluffy bottoms. Great posing Roscoe! You make an amazing model!
My dogs think the camera will steal their soul. I wish I could get the great shots I see on this blog.
Some of my best shots are the close ones I got even if they are a bit blurry.
We welcome October and the cooler weather. Roscoe, you are quite the ham, and cute.
Roscoe-YOU are TOO cute!!!! No matter how close or far away the picture. Happy October all!
Happy October! Aw Roscoe you can get as close as you want ????
