I have been a dog owner since was a young boy, with vast experience dealing with all dog "personalities",... My philosophy is "There are no bad dogs" People have referred to me as the "dog whisperer" simply because their dogs are naturally drawn to me..I started professionally photographing dogs about 3 decades ago usually in controlled environments such as canine obedience centers where I would "shoot" 30 to 40 dogs with their humans in an 8-hour day.
