Happy National Dog Day…

Today is National Dog Day. . If you have hung around  Beatrice Ryan Designs. .. You know how much Charlie loves to have his picture taken… He is modeling my latest free pattern. . Ombre Ridges Scarf.. Maybe he isn’t so excited about the modeling gig… but loves the camera!!!

Since it’s National Dog Day, it’s the perfect opportunity to celebrate our furry companions like Charlie, who is clearly a fan of the camera! If you’ve spent any time with Beatrice Ryan Designs, you already know how much Charlie loves to have his picture taken. He’s currently modeling the latest free pattern, the Ombre Ridges Scarf, showcasing not only his charm but also his love for the spotlight. While he might not be thrilled about the modeling gig, he certainly loves the camera!

Services like dog grooming training options in Kentucky can complement this by enhancing how Charlie and other dogs look and feel. Grooming training programs focus on teaching dogs to be comfortable with handling, brushing, and even posing for photos. This can make Charlie’s modeling experiences more enjoyable by ensuring he’s groomed and well-behaved, ready for the camera at a moment’s notice. Groomers in Kentucky offer specialized techniques that help dogs relax during their grooming sessions, making them more cooperative when it’s time to get dressed up or pose for pictures. By combining training with regular grooming, dog owners can ensure their pets feel confident and comfortable, allowing them to shine in every photo op, just like Charlie.

Happy National Dog Day with Charlie

My two favorite things. .. Crocheting and Charlie! !

Happy Crocheting!
