Well, I think i have to toot my own horn :) I think I take great dog photos, and i find it takes mostly patience, and i take a LOT of pics. Out of 10 pics, i might get a couple I like. I'm using a little hybrid camera Canon TX1, so I'm limited by lighting, distance and action. Shutter speed is not very fast, so action shots are the hardest for me. Here's a pic I took just yesterday of a male Tosa (not one of mine). His owner sort of held him in place this time.
