Contact Name: Natalie

About this photographer: I especially enjoy taking photographs of pets. I love animals and have several of my own. Spending a little extra time when photographing animals in order to get that perfect shot is very important. Patience when photographing animals is a requirement of pet photography. Pet portraits can be done at an outdoor location, like a park, or in your home. It is best if the portraits are taken at a place where the animal is comfortable but not too distracted by the environment.

About this service: The Pawstry Chef is a Canadian owned dog biscuit company located near Ottawa, Ontario. Since opening our oven doors in June 2003, our goal has been to bake healthy and delicious dog biscuits for the canine companions in your life.

Guided by the principle “You are what you eat”, our biscuits are the result of the passion and respect that we have for all dogs. Our home-made recipes contain a high percentage of certified organic ingredients.

Since we use top-notch ingredients such as pure pumpkin, unsweetened applesauce, dried cranberries, carrots, spices and coconut (to name a few) we have no need to add salt or any artificial colours or flavours. The natural ingredients speak for themselves with their abundance of flavours and scents.

With four years of successful baking under our belts, we decided to have a bit of fun with our biscuits and create a unique line of biscuits for the wine lover who loves their dog. Please don’t feel excluded if you don’t drink wine – it’s all just a play on words.

What an enthusiastic reception we have received from canines and humans alike!

About this service: A massaged dog is a happy, healthy dog. Right now you’re probably thinking dogs don’t need massage, but when you find out what massage is all about, you may wonder why you didn’t do it for your dog much sooner.

Human massage and canine massage are very similar. Our muscles, while connected a little differently, act in the same way. Dogs and people suffer from pretty much the same disorders and ailments. You know the science. It’s widely accepted now that petting your dog helps your blood pressure go down. The same is true for your dog.

Sandy looks forward to hearing from you and working on your dog.
