Weekly Photo Contest: What Was I Thinking?
One of the best things about pet photography is the predictable unpredictability of it all. Sometimes you just happen to be there at the perfect moment when a dog or a cat just does something wacky. This week’s shot is a case in point. The dog, a really sweet terrier mix, just decided that it would be a good time to sneeze and yawn simultaneously. Talk about multi-tasking…
Just make a comment on this post and replace “What was I thinking?” with your own suggestion to score 25 Zealies that you can spend in the Gift Shop!
