Thanks to member Labdp for her contributions to our blog!

Sidney's mug shots from when he was in the shelter reveal that he is not the most photogenic dog on earth. In fact, we had a bet if he was even pure bred or not. Naturally, I won this bet, because I had absolute faith in our Incoming Dog Coordinators and Board. Said bet has not been paid up, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

Back to Sidney, he is way cuter than his photo's suggest. Couple that with my pathetic photography skills, and he has a distinct handicap. I worry he'll be like the wall flower at the prom. Last to be asked to dance into a forever home.

He has the most adorable pigment spot on his schnozzle. But getting a picture of that is like asking a hummingbird to pause mid-flight. I'm working on better photo's. His mug shots are on his profile. They show a scared, shy dog squinting in the bright light of day, hunkered down a little, ready to bolt if necessary.

I need pictures that show his spirit leaping after butterflies and his heart so full of warm fuzzies that his tail about wags off. I also need to figure out point and click photography. My shutter is not nearly fast enough for these pointers of ours. Now, if I was shooting photo's of a tortoise, you'd think I was a professional.

He may just be a sleeper, and his pic's may never do him justice. In that case, you'll just have to meet him to fall for him. I believe I have.
