(<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/2014\/12\/04\/tips-taking-perfect-picture-pet\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click here to see all of those tips.<\/a>) Today I&#8217;d like to focus on one tip in particular: walk your dogs before taking your photos. As I mentioned before, walking your dog before a photo session has a number of benefits. You can work out your dog&#8217;s excess energy, making him or her more cooperative when sitting still for a photo. Also, your dog enjoys going for a walk, and your dog&#8217;s happy mood when you get home usually shows through in your photos. Sadie and I had a photo shoot last month that is a perfect example of the difference between\u00a0taking\u00a0photos\u00a0before and\u00a0after a\u00a0walk.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6179\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/?attachment_id=6179\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6179\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6179\" class=\"wp-image-6179 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos22-708x1024.jpg\" alt=\"dogs, designer dogs, yorkipoo, yorkie poo, dogs with flowers, dog smiling, tongue out, photography tips, spring\" width=\"640\" height=\"926\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos22-708x1024.jpg 708w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos22-345x500.jpg 345w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos22-600x868.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos22-700x1013.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6179\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Before the walk&#8230;<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6172\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/?attachment_id=6172\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6172\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6172\" class=\"wp-image-6172 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos5-713x1024.jpg\" alt=\"dogs, designer dogs, yorkipoo, yorkie poo, dogs with flowers, dog smiling, tongue out, photography tips, spring\" width=\"640\" height=\"919\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos5-713x1024.jpg 713w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos5-348x500.jpg 348w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos5-600x862.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos5-700x1006.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6172\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8230; after the walk!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In the first photo, I took Sadie outside to use the bathroom and decided to pose her by some pretty flowers. Sadie grumbled the whole time, didn&#8217;t want to look at the camera, and was\u00a0generally annoyed that I was trying to take pictures of her. Since it was a nice day, I decided to take Sadie for a walk immediately to see if it would put her in a better mood. The\u00a0last two\u00a0photos were taken when we got back from the walk. Sadie is posing in front of the same pretty\u00a0flowers, but with a much happier\u00a0smile.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/?attachment_id=6178\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6178\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6178 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos12-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"dogs, designer dogs, yorkipoo, yorkie poo, dogs with flowers, dog smiling, tongue out, photography tips, spring\" width=\"640\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos12-683x1024.jpg 683w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos12-333x500.jpg 333w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos12-600x900.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalkb4photos12-700x1050.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/?attachment_id=6170\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6170\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6170 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos3-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"dogs, designer dogs, yorkipoo, yorkie poo, dogs with flowers, dog smiling, tongue out, photography tips, spring\" width=\"640\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos3-683x1024.jpg 683w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos3-333x500.jpg 333w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos3-600x900.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos3-700x1050.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/?attachment_id=6180\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6180\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6180 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos42-568x1024.jpg\" alt=\"dogs, designer dogs, yorkipoo, yorkie poo, dogs with flowers, dog smiling, tongue out, photography tips, spring\" width=\"568\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos42-568x1024.jpg 568w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos42-278x500.jpg 278w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos42-600x1081.jpg 600w, http:\/\/www.yourdesignerdogblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/sadiewalksb4photos42-700x1261.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div>This post is part of the Thursday Barks and Bytes blog hop hosted by <a href=\"http:\/\/2browndawgs.com\/\" target='_blank' >2 Brown Dawgs<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.heartlikeadog.com\/\" target='_blank' >Heart Like A Dog<\/a>.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20446 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/2browndawgs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/bb3b_fotor1.png?zoom=3&amp;resize=200%2C200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/2browndawgs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/bb3b_fotor1.png?zoom=3&amp;resize=200%2C200\" alt=\"B&amp;B3b_Fotor\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" \/><\/div>\n<p><!-- start LinkyTools script --><script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkytools.com\/thumbnail_linky_include.aspx?id=255365\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><!-- end LinkyTools script --><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>This post is also part of the Thoughtless Thursday blog hop hosted by <a href=\"http:\/\/ruckustheeskie.com\/\" target='_blank' >Ruckus the Eskie<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/ownedbyahusky.blogspot.com\/\" target='_blank' >Love Is Being Owned By a Husky<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mkclinton.com\/\" target='_blank' >M.K.
