Furry friends meet photo booths in this quirky photography book that captures all the cute canine action when the leashes come off and the dogs are the star of the show. If dogs could take selfies, it might look something like Tails from the Booth. For this adorable collection of photographs, Lynn Terry draws on more than twenty years of professional photography experience to capture the most endearing moments between canine companions: A couple of pitbulls grinning widely at the camera. Two saggy-faced bulldogs bumping jowls. A Pomeranian, an English bulldog, and a Boston terrier dog-piling (of course) on top of each other. These pictures show the countless ways dogs will ham it up in front of a camera, and that more dogs in a photo booth = even more fun! With all the charm of Underwater Dogs and Shake, Tails from the Booth will make you laugh out loud at all the awkward and endearing ways dogs make friends with each other.
"In this book, photographer Traer Scott presents over fifty endearing and frequently heartrending portraits of shelter dogs. These images capture the genuine spirit of dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments, whether playful, proud, inquisitive, or shy. Above all, these photographs reveal the strikingly intense emotion, dignity, and even humor that Scott saw in each face, despite the dog's circumstances. By documenting the soulful, unique characters of just a few of the hundreds of dogs she has encountered in her volunteer work, Scott raises awareness of animal rescue and welfare causes, and particularly the need for more adoptive homes for abandoned animals. This collection of portraits is a tribute to all dogs and will appeal to animal lovers every where."--BOOK JACKET.

Here is a tongue-in-cheek photo guidebook that shows you how to select the ideal shelter dog when considering one for adoption. Every dog appearing on these pages was living at the Cleveland Animal Protective League at the time their pictures were taken, and was photographed while working and/or playing with the author in the course of his activities as a volunteer. This book is intended to capture the quirks, charm, and unwavering spirit of its subjects as they await adoption by their “forever families.” Page 1 of 11

This book is a visual celebration of shelter dogs from three different facilities in Palm Beach County, Florida. There is always more that can be done for the protection and well-being of our domestic animals at the hands of humans. Why not give them a voice - if only through portraits - and let them share their stories...When I first began this project in early July 2013, I thought it would be a very emotional experience to photograph shelter dogs. After all, they usually don't have a great story leading up to their home at a shelter. I cried the first few times I entered the shelters, thinking how hard it was going to be to look at all the dogs behind bars who were crying for attention. But then after I started interacting with them, it became much easier. They really just wanted attention, love and a safe environment. And when we released them to be in front of the camera, most of them just came alive, seemingly to have forgotten any troubling past and "lived in the moment," with their handler and me, as we now know dogs do.I look forward to and relish the time that I spend with "my" dogs. Not only do I, and the dogs, benefit from the interaction, but it turns out that the shelter facilities do, too. I volunteer my time and offer any and all photographs I have taken at each shelter to do with what they want. By using the images as an advertisement of dogs up for adoption, my contacts have told me that people see their photos on the shelter websites and purposely come in to meet those dogs in person! If this is the only thing I can accomplish, then that alone signifies that I'm making a difference in their lives.As is said, "the eyes are the windows to your soul," and because of this, my primary focus is each beautiful pair of eyes. Some of the dogs were afraid to look into the lens-to them it was a big black thing blocking my eyes-yet some were very curious when hearing the shutter click. Also, before I would even start, I laid my camera down in the grass along with my bounce card, and invited them to sniff and get comfortable knowing the camera was not a threat. One dog even found it necessary to "mark" my camera! (thank you very much).The dogs in this book are not posed - I just captured them at the right time. My goal is to show you who they really are so you can see their authentic selves. Some have hair loss, skin damage, scars, crooked faces or signs of cruel treatment. But it's not about presenting you with perfect dogs, it's about showing you who they are, flawed as they might seem. Looking into each set of eyes, you can see the natural perfection in every dog's soul. All the dogs I worked with were sweet, loving and seemed appreciative of the attention.On each facing page, I have included as much information as was available about each dog, their traits, breed, age, sex, what shelter they're at, as well as how they found themselves in this predicament.As of the printing of this book, some may have been adopted, which is wonderful. However many will still be available looking for a "furever" home. If you find yourself wanting more information about a particular dog, I have included each shelter's contact information and website at the end of this book. And from that, if you find your furever fur baby, then I've accomplished even more than what I set out to do.
