Our dog Ginger is the Thelma to my Louise; always ready for a road trip around Dallas - Fort Worth, nothing fazes her. She loves the car and an adventure, hence why you often see her in my blog posts. She's my ever-ready and wiling model. But this week's theme in the 52 Week Pet Photography Project is "red" and even though she's cute, I just didn't think she'd look good in red. After all, pink is Ginger's signature color!

I set my sights on of our three dogs that hasn't yet been featured in a blog post, Dingo, who I knew would look dashing in red! Dingo is more of a homebody. He's never been a fan of the car and can be quite timid. He was born into a semi-feral community of stray dogs that lived under under an abandoned building in Oak Cliff just south of Dallas and was rescued as a young pup by Operation Kindness where we adopted him on Fathers Day 2007 (Happy Fathers Day to me! Er, I mean to my husband! LOL).  

Even though he didn't enjoy the short car ride to the studio, and was a bit nervous being there, I plied him with treats and peanut butter and he settled right in, even tolerating the strobes which is saying something for this lighting and thunder phobic dog!
