Hi everyone:  I know this subject was discussed before, but it was 
awhile ago and this aging brain doesn't always remember what she reads!  
I would like to know about limitations to using professional photos of 
our dogs for publication.  I wanted to buy a winning picture of one of 
my dogs and the photographer told me if I planned on using his photo for 
publication, then I would need his permission to do so.  Well the 
picture came out "yucky" so I never did order the photo from him.  I 
don't believe it's wise to advertise your dog with a awful picture.  
Unfortunately first impressions are lasting impressions.  Let me ask 
this:  people spend big dollars advertising their dogs.  Do you mean to 
tell me all those professional pictures that we see advertising dogs in 
the Review or on websites that the owner has permission to use that 
photographers picture?  I know Terry and Ruth from "Right Dog" is on the 
List.  (I think I got their names right).  Perhaps they can help educate 
us.  Best wishes,  Barbara
