Lys's Post: Going to be "famous"

[Amaze]

Thanks Barb!

GUESS WHAT!!!

Heuser has been auditioning and selected for a photo shoot for HALLMARK CARDS!!! The shoot will take place next Monday and he will be having a tea party with a little girl!!! The director of the shoot has already fallen in love with him, having met him during the audition, and is already coming up with more projects to include him in!!! She also said that the type of photo they are expecting to come from this shoot can also be considered for framed pictures, posters, etc. so if it comes out well, he may be on more than a card!!!

He was SO good for the audition and did everything I asked him to like a pro! He even wore a hat and sat up on a hard table (which he hates doing) and only needed one correction! Tally went too, but she is really not sure about kids and I don't trust her in this situation.

I couldn't wait to share the good news with you guys!!!

PS-They also want to put me in touch with their "Card Stock" department to possibly purchase one of my photos of Heuser getting a hug from the little boy I nannied last year in Omaha!!! This is great!

Hallmark's headquarters are actually stationed here in Kansas City and they put of recruiting posters every once in a while. We have had one up at Three Dog forever but I never sent anything in...But to be honest with you, it seems like only the owners of really ugly dogs ever bragged about sending things in to them (although none that I know ever heard back from them) and I got kind of sick of it, lol! So I sent an email to the lady just asking her if she was interested in a top-quality chihuahua that was obedience trained and she emailed me back in like two minutes!!! Then, they sent a recruiter down to the store to see him and to check if he really was trained (she said that they get owners claiming ALL the time that their dogs are "trained" and they're not!) She just LOVED his personality and was very impressed not just that he knows obedience commands, but performs them "better than most big dogs I've seen" (her words, not mine)! So after she took some pictures of him and looked at his portfolio, she went back to her boss and they decided to use him. The cool part is that they really wanted a bigger dog sitting at the table too, but decided that they like H so much that unless I had any doggy friends that he was comfortable with, that they would not use another. I suggested my boss's Cocker Spaniel named Bailey who gets along great with the chihuahuas and so she is coming with to include in a few shots!!! The shoot was changed to Wednesday, so he will have a BUSY weekend!!! (we leave for Chicago on Thursday!!!).
