♥ NIKO GOES ON A PHOTO SHOOT FOR FETCHDOG ♥

The Very Beautiful and Stunning Renaissance Niko owned and loved by Theresa Fox of Maine.

Fetchdog was co-founded by Glenn Close.  Glenn knows all about the Coton de Tulear, as she too, is a Coton owner.  You can visit her blog and from there you can go to the online Fetchdog Catalog.

Here's what Niko's Mom Theresa had to say about Niko's photo shoot.

Niko went on a location in Cape Elizabeth, Maine

The FetchDog catalog will be in homes around Oct 4 and also available on line by then if not before. 

Niko is featured in a green trundle (sack).  I haven't seen the photo so I'm not sure how it will look.

He will get more exposure in future catalogs since he was so well behaved during his first photo shoot.  Or at least that is what the art director told me!

He did great at the photo shoot.  Lots of lights, cameras, people!  Art director, photo shoot director, cameramen, men that focused on the lighting, marketing manager, dog manager, dog trainer, product manager and on and on.  There must have been 20 people working this shoot. They said Niko was wonderful.  They put him in a dog bed "sack" and he stayed right in it.  They said they were discussing the photos, angles, etc and he just sat there and waited!  What a good boy!  They have already asked that he come back for their next catalog shoot.  He got a gift certificate too!

I believe the catalog gets published late September but I will let you know when I get the final date. Oh yeah, they asked me if I would bring him down to Glenn Close's summer house.  She loves cotons and I guess she wants to meet Niko.  I think I can manage that~!  :)

Such a beautiful boy.  A big thank you to Theresa for giving Niko such a great home and for working so hard with him on his training.  At the very least, we can see Niko becoming a Canine Good Citizen just like his Daddy, Koda.

Multi-Champion Koda, CGC

Koda is 6 years old and still so beautiful...Here he is just hanging out and enjoying the morning sun.  Koda has sired quite a few working therapy dogs and we are just so proud of him.  We are hoping that his son Oakley will be staying on here at Renaissance Coton de Tulear.  All fingers and paws are crossed.

Kylie likes to play fetch too!

Kylie of Renaissance Cotons plays fetch. I told Daddy that Cotons don't know how to play fetch and while I was away last weekend at a dog show...he proved me wrong!!

Kylie of Renaissance and Bam Bam Kazaam of Cotonnelle attended a show in Goshen, CT this past weekend.  It was REALLY hot, but we did it!

Kylie went 5 times Best of Opposite Sex and 5 times group 1.  Kylie is 6 1/2 months old. She really did great...all 6.5 lbs of her.

Kazaam went Best of Breed 4 out of 5 times and took 2 Group 1st and 2 Group 2nd.

I think we were all glad to get into an air conditioned car and head home on Sunday.
