IS YOUR DOG A BIT OF A JERK?
If so... keep reading!
Opportunities like this don’t come up very often. Normally when I’m casting for a shoot, I’m looking for dogs who can follow instructions, hold focus and generally have their life together.
Not this time.
This time I’m looking for a bit of a goofball. A lovable menace. The dog who has plenty of personality, gets a little overexcited and perhaps doesn’t always make the best life choices.
Sound familiar?
MUST:
Be available this Sunday at around 5pm for approximately half an hour in NEWCASTLE, NSW
One owner only please, no kids
Be medium to large in size — think Border Collie, Aussie Shepherd etc. I’d also consider a Rottweiler or German Shepherd
Sorry guys, no Oodles for this one — I already have that model sorted!
Have some coat — ideally a dog who would normally visit a groomer for a bath and tidy, de-shed etc.
Be highly treat OR toy motivated
Be in healthy condition with a full, healthy coat
Have no signs of aggression or history of biting
IDEALLY:
Under 2 years old
A little bit silly, excitable or generally lacking in self-control
I’m not looking for perfect obedience for this one, quite the opposite. Personality is going to be far more important!
If you think your dog fits the brief AND you’re available this Sunday, drop a photo in the comments along with their age, breed and a little bit about why you think they’d be perfect.
And yes... feel free to dob in someone else’s dog! If there’s a four-legged menace in your life who was born for this role, tag their owner below.
(Just to clarify, the puppy in the photo was not a Jerk - but I bet he stopped you scrolling)
