I’m pleased to announce “Every Dog Has Its Day,” a pet portrait event that will benefit senior pet owners on a low or fixed income. Partnering with the Seattle Humane Society, Northwest Dog Shots will be photographing your pets’ portraits all day May 22nd and possibly the 23rd, as well. Proceeds of the event will be donated to the SHS Pet Food Bank program, which provides pet food to low and fixed income seniors in King County.


Mr. Demille, I’m ready for my close up now
I, along with a team of eager volunteers, will be pampering and primping your dog, getting them ready for their glamour photo shoot. First, you’ll call us to set up your 1/2 hour appointment on Saturday, May 22. If the 22nd fills up quickly, we extend the event to include Sunday, May 23. Then, on the appointed day you’ll bring your freshly bathed pooch to my studio in the SODO district of Seattle. There, a groomer will spend 15 minutes getting your dog ready for his or her close up. That could include some trimming around the eyes, putting on a pretty ribbon or scarf, or maybe a little nail polish. When your star is ready, she’ll be taken to the stage for her photo shoot. After the shoot, you and your pampered pet will receive a gift bag of goodies and treats, and you’ll make an appointment for a couple of weeks later to see the images of your little diva. Fun, huh!
How does it work?
As I mentioned above, the first step is to call Northwest Dog Shots at the number below to make an appointment. On the day of your appointment, bring $20 and a bag of dog or cat food to the studio. The $20 will help cover equipment rental and expenses, and the bag of pet food will go to the Seattle Humane Society’s Pet Food Bank program. At the time of your follow up appointment, you’ll receive a 5X7 print of your pooch and have the opportunity to purchase more prints and packages.
Details, I need details
To make an appointment, call 206-999-1038. Times are from 10am to 6pm, Saturday May 22. If Saturday fills up quickly, we hold the event over an additional day.
The Seattle Humane Society has the greatest need for cat food, although dog food is welcome, too. Please bring a large (15-20lb) bag of dry cat food or a medium (15-20lb) bag of dry dog food. Larger sizes are also welcome. For more information on the Pet Food Bank program, visit http://www.seattlehumane.org/services/services/lowincome-senior
Please bring $20 in either cash or check. Sorry, we are unable to process credit or debit cards.
I hope to see you there!
