Not bad at all! At least they all kept their hats and antlers on!

I usually have my husband sit in a chair with a bag of treats and I stand behind him to take pictures. Or in my siggy, I had him hold them by their leashes while I had treats and camera in hand. I wish I hadn't packed our antlers or I'd be entertaining you with outtakes as well!

I haven't been successful yet.
I got a great picture of Moka in front of the tree...but Java will not sit with her back to the tree. She will sit FACING the tree, but that doesn't do me any good.
Apparently she needs to keep an eye on the tree and watch out for sneak attacks.

Once they know the command "sit", and can stay for a few seconds, I haven't had "too much"' trouble with 2 dogs. I thought it might be hard with Baxter this year (5 months old), but he has a great "front", so I could get him close to the fireplace and face me, and with a digital camara i've been able to take the last few years myself, without any help from SU

Okay! Laura wins the prize. Maybe several of them. And even though she did not suggest or do what follows, here goes.

Take the **** antlers off those poor dogs. You expect cooperation when you dress them up like that?
Need to have them sit for treats, did you have treats? NO! What did you expect?

Do you have some version of Photoshop or similar? It is amazing how you can put the good pieces of several pics together and make a great composite. Works for humans that tend to close their eyes and dogs that turn their heads.
