Mum told me there is a saying 'third time lucky' – so we decided to have one last go at doing some modelling shots. We decided to try and get some more natural, non-posed ones, so the first one, Mum caught me in mid-play.
Mum: "Ok Luna, probably not the best look actually. Can you just relax a bit? And try not letting your tongue hang out quite so much."
Mum: "Not bad! Now, we really need to do something about your ears. I know inside-out is the latest fashion, but it doesn't look great in photos, can you try and flip them out the right way for me?"
Luna: "Ummm ok Mum, how about if I just do a side profile? Then its only half as bad cos you can only see one ear?"
Mum: "No Luna, that's not really what I want. And watch that tongue! It's starting to slip around to the side and hang out more!"
Luna: "Mum, I really kinda like my ears up like this. The other doggies think it's cool! How about if I just pin them back a bit so you can't see them so much? Like this?"
Mum: "Oh Luna I just want your ears to look pretty! I don't care about the latest doggy fashion. Can you please please fix them up for me? And watch your tongue too!"
Luna: "Fine then, what if I flip my tongue to the other side, and just look more alert? Does that help?"
Mum: "ARRRGHHH LUNA!!! I give up!!"
