927 5th Avenue

I know this is a terrible quality shot but I just couldn't leave it out! The funny thing was that Adam had just announced that he was going to move to NY and become a dog-walker (having quickly established that there were a lot of pampered poochies around) when this lady appeared with 10 beautifully behaved, beautiful dogs. He quickly totted up what you could charge for an hour's walk and abandoned the planned career in advertising!!
And when I got home today the BBC were featuring this article http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-18354078
This is so awesome.

OMG I just clicked on that link. Poppy has gone upstairs in disgust. She's taking up the whole pavement. Good times then?

fun capture, but I bet you a lot that those dogs turn into a pack easily - Wimbledon Common were thinking of banning dog walkers with packs of dogs after a number of incidents some years ago, and now license them - good luck to Adam.

Brilliant...so dog walking a 'no no' then!
June 9th, 2012  
haha, beautiful shot, the lady is a good dog-sitter

Brilliant. There's a guy in Tel Aviv who roller blades around with about 12 dogs attached to his belt. It's quite something.

Such a fun shot. Nice catch.

@cgould Blimey!!

@shanne @caddick Well it would be good if he showed any interest at all in walking ours!

@fueast Disgust because you haven't booked her in for a facial or disgust because the dogs should be rolling in fox poo?? Great time - completely exhausting but fun. I have a whole B&W series planned....

Have just looked at the bbc news link! At least none of these 10 dogs have coats and boots on!!

tell him to practise to learn the skills
June 9th, 2012

June 9th, 2012  
Great shot!

Fantastic, a shot you just couldn't miss! So glad you didn't.

How does she not get those leads all tangled up.. a bit of a menace if you ask me ! I can see she has two hidden behind making ten but they all look very well behaved I must say. Show this to Monty so he knows how well off he is having you all to himself !

@judithg tee hee
June 9th, 2012  
=) Thats a lot of poop to pick up! I have a hard time keeping control of one!
June 9th, 2012  
Hahaha- being a multiple dog walker myself - it's all good until one dog poops and the others start milling about while you bag it...and braid the leashes.
June 9th, 2012  
LOL great shot, I was in NY and I met a lady walking her dog in CP and he pooped as we were speaking and she scooped and then wiped his bum...... yuck
June 9th, 2012  
I didn't know the Iditerod passed through NY! Fabulous catch.
June 10th, 2012  
Fantastic shot xx
June 10th, 2012  
Wow! That's a lot of dogs. Great capture!
June 10th, 2012  
Great shot, a must to get. We were told that dog walkers never have a day off, does Adam know this?!
