Description
West Highland Terrier
Mandy will sit and stare at you all day, but bring out a camera and she starts looking away, turning around, wandering off, sticking her nose right on the lens, squinting into the sun. She just refuses to look at the camera.
This was the closest thing I got to what I wanted ... I'll keep trying!

You seem determined to drive yourself crazy - kids and animals, the most difficult of subjects... Great capture.
Wonderful image!!
GREAT!!! Wonderful portrait!
Oh, she is a sweetie! Marvelous capture!
Terrific pic all the same! Did you do the rolling-on-the-floor-growlingsoftly greeting-, I wonder.
This is an impressive "capture". Because you did capture a very fleeting moment in time. I think she likes you now more than me...IAW what Andrea says above...you did greet her before me and gave her string cheese. You are "in":)
Great shot. Don't let that mutt get the better of you!
What a sweet little lady! Great capture
That is indeed a gorgeous shot Tara and Mandy is a lovely little lady. :-D HAHA. I love Andreas comments. And Bills too :)))
Oh my gosh, that is the cutest dog ever! Look at those ears, and that cute little tongue, and those inviting eyes...I fell in love with her. Give her an extra treat for me. How funny that you greeted Mandy before Bill. Poor Bill, but he doesn't seem too put out about it.
Glad to hear that you did the Mandy greeting correctly Hun! You were briefed very well! This is such a sweet shot of Madam!!!!.... as close to perfect as can be!!! Miss you!
Adoreable Mandy!!!
Cool capture of a real sweetie, Tara! When I was a kid, I had a dog that would absolutely freak out if you pointed a camera at him. Nothing else fazed him, but he was scared to death of a camera. Weird. It's like they actually know what it is..... But this is a wonderful capture!
That might be a "feed me" look...:)
lovely capture! :)
Oh Mandy Well you came and you gave without taking But I sent you away Oh Mandy Well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking And I need you today Oh Mandy....... Good contrast and texture in this neato portrait of the uncooperative pooch.
Very Cute !
She is adorable! Some tribal peoples used to believe that the camera would steal your soul. I wonder if that is the same with dogs? I used to have the same problem with my cat.
Awwww she is so cute a great capture of this little girl. Well done!
Beautiful capture and the neckerchief is a great plus. Lots of cute. Dana
Whatever you did worked VERY well--this is just the sweetest shot!!
And I thought cats were bad! I guess anything that walks on all fours will just be impossible to photograph when you want to photograph them. But you managed a gorgeous capture, and I wonder if doing the rolling-on-the-floor-snuffling sort of thing would get her to stand still long enough to capture her, though during the whole rolling around and making growling-snuffling noises would probably make your shots interestingly blurry and get lots of "chin" shots of your canine target. Oh well...it's a thought. Mandy is adorable too.
Did you try duct taping a doggie bisquit to the top of the camera lens??? Great shot of this cutie. : )
wondrful capture smiles warm sunshine hugs, Linda Kaye
oh shes adorable!! sweet shot
I think this is a great pic of Mandy. I understand what you mean about getting the camera out :o) Mandy is so pretty!!!!!
