Introducing…Posh Pups in the City™ – Toronto Edition!

Jan 13, 2016

No doubt about it – Posh Pets® Photography loves our home city, Toronto. It’s a great city full of great dogs, cats, and their people. It’s busy and vibrant and boasts an easily identifiable skyline. And, it simply looks spectacular in photographs!

To celebrate our home city, we’ve been working on a project for some time now – finding a way to incorporate that awesome cityscape into images with YOUR dogs. We’ve been quietly scoping out locations and enlisting the help of many urban pups and their intrepid humans.

This has not always been easy. As you know, the Toronto skyline boasts one of the tallest buildings in the world, the CN Tower. Finding a perspective that will allow me to place a sitting dog who is about 12 inches high, in the same frame as a 1,815.4 ft building can be a challenge. Even large breeds are not really all that big when you place them beside architecture.

These images celebrate that truly quintessential urban pup. You know the one…they embrace the city lifestyle. They know their neighbourhood…Uptown, downtown, the Annex, The Beach, Cabbage Town, Liberty Village…you get the idea. Toronto is their home. Or, they lived here at one point and haven’t forgotten their roots.

If you are looking to create a Posh Pups in the City™ image(s) in your Boutique Session, then you are in the right place. You might have a location in mind, or we can research and explore an awesome spot together. We will create something that you will be happy to display on your wall for years to come! Let’s do this…

PS: If you have an urban feline that loves the outdoors, does well on a leash, we would absolutely love to meet them too. Posh Cats in the City™…why not? Me-ow!

All dogs are special to their families. There is no doubt about that. But, some dogs have managed to wiggle in and find their place where no one else could. Zoe, a gorgeous blond shepherd, is that kind of dog.

Zoe came into her family’s lives after the death of the previous family dog. While the rest of the family was thrilled to have another dog around, Heather wasn’t so sure. The sting of saying good-bye was still there and she did not want to become attached to another puppy. But, as dogs are wont to do, Zoe patiently won her over. And now, 10 years later, she is definitely Heather’s dog.

Zoe moves a little slower now – 10 years is a long time. There is a little arthritis and not so much jumping and running. But, there is still love and loyalty. And an infectious smile and a zest for life that only a dog can have!

Zoe, it was a privilege to photograph you – you are a gorgeous soul! I am so glad that we had the honour to meet you and have a part in recording the life you share with your family. It is so obvious and simple. They love you. And, you love them. I know that your family will treasure these images always!
