I hear ya! With all this nastiness outside we like to sit by the fire, eat chili and play <a title="Indoor Games - Mutt Shots" href="http://www.modernmuttshots.com/2009/12/indoor-dog-games/" target="_self">find it</a>. But the lack of warm sunrays and green leaves does not have to mean a lack of pretty pictures. Memorable portraits can be taken just as well inside in your home, where you pet is the most comfortable anyway. And for just this reason, I am offering a special discounted session all through February!</p>
<p>Check out the <a title="Mutt Shots Special" href="http://www.modernmuttshots.com/christmas-special/" target="_self">Winter Special</a> and <a title="Contact Mutt Shots" href="http://www.modernmuttshtos.com/contact" target="_self">email</a> me for more information!</p>

I got so excited about the idea that I had to get one myself. Then I fell in love with it. And now I am giving one away. Thanks to Nicole from Port-A-Poo one lucky winner can try it for themselves. For absolutely free!</p>
<p>Well, almost. The only thing I want from you is a tip. Tell me about your favorite dog product. Anything that you think is genius and you just can&#8217;t live without. And tell me about it on my <a title="Mutt Shots Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/MuttShots" target="_blank">facebook page</a> (NOT HERE!). You&#8217;ve got time until Sunday 8 pm Central Time, when I will randomly pick the winner of one of those handy little helpers! Good luck!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s time for the <a title="Bissel Photo Contest" href="http://mvp.bissell.com/mvp_Home.aspx" target="_blank">Bissel Dog Photo Contest</a> again! Every year the vacuum company, Bissel, runs a contest in which you can win great prizes. But best of all, the winner can choose a pet charity to which Bissel will donate $10,000. Now personally, I&#8217;d love for either the Pottawatomie County or Riley County Humane Society to win. But that is of course totally up to the winner.</p>
<p>The contest started at the beginning of this month and will run all the way through the end of march, 2010. But don&#8217;t wait until then to enter your dogs picture! Each week is a new voting period and a new chance to get your dog into the semi-final.</p>
<p>So in an effort to help any local dog charity I am offering  to &#8220;donate&#8221; a free digital picture to my past and future clients. That means, everyone who has had their dog&#8217;s pictures taken by me will receive a free (low resolution) digital file of their favorite picture to enter in the contest. And since the contest runs until the end of march my offer is valid for any customer that is going to have their pictures taken until then. So just <a href="mailto:info@modernmuttshots.com">e-mail</a> me the name/number of your favorite picture and I will make sure to send it to you asap!</p>
<p>To enter your picture go <a title="Enter Bissel Photo Contest" href="http://mvp.bissell.com/mvp_enter.aspx?id=7469" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As this is the last post of the year I wanted to thank everyone who keeps reading this blog and encourages me with lovely comments!

2. Over the year I will release select full size images for you to use as desktop background on your computer, to enjoy all the puppy faces on your desk all day long.<br />
3. The Pott. County Humane Society and I are cooking up an awesome fine art doggy calendar for 2011.<br />
4. More new pet products and doggy wisdom every week.<br />
5. And so much more that I have not even thought of, yet.</p>
<p>And if you have not, yet, had a photo session for your dog or would like to book a new one I have a New Years Special for you: Everyone who is my <a title="Mutt Shots Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/MuttShots" target="_blank">facebook</a> fan and books their session for next year before the end of this week will receive a special 31% discount on your session fee!
