Today our ever more irrelevant Arizona Republic<\/a> demonstrated again that it is clueless about what over 1,100 daily readers of BloodhoundBlog.com know, which is… here on BHB you will find some of the finest weblog writing by real estate professionals available anywhere<\/em> in the English speaking world. With the addition of so many fine writers with awesome credentials, since Greg and I started this site almost a year ago, I’ll admit that I feel outclassed. There’s really not much for me to deliver that teaches and informs and entertains like what our other illustrious contributors give us. But<\/em> — Tom Johnson from Houston<\/a> has given me an opportunity to show off my<\/em> expertise…<\/p>\n

In a comment on Teri’s post, “How Much Is That Doggie In The Window,”<\/em><\/a> Tom talks about his dogs, Sophie and Duke, and asks<\/a><\/p>\n

If I could figure out how to photograph them together, we could go for the all sizes, all families type thing. Suggestions? <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Oooh, oooh, I<\/em> can answer that! Take lots and lots of pictures! I know what I’m talking about! For our December 2000 holiday card I wanted to include our entire<\/em> family, even those with fur or feathers, in the family photo. So I recruited my sister Terry, and she managed to shoot a perfect portrait. Took her only 40 shots to get it. Here are 16 of those pictures:<\/p>\n

Fortinbras the Cockatiel and Gwen the Gerbil, alas, met the fate of animals who decide to escape the cages that protected them from their bigger sisters and brothers. And Charley, the regal Akita mix who Greg’s sitting on, and Peritas, the black Lab puppy with the bubblegum tongue who’s sitting next to me, were the ill-fated dogs Greg talks about in his comment on Teri’s post<\/a>, whose loss led us to Odysseus. My heart still aches over that loss. In fact, you’ll notice, the sadness has been so profound, that it turned me blonde<\/em>!
