WHAT YOU SHOULD WEAR

Text me your outfit choice, please!

​

Guidelines:

• No busy patterns/prints - the Carnival is busy enough

• Please do not wear a color that blends in with your dog

• Your clothing should not restrict you from sitting or squatting.

• Your clothing should not attract and show a lot of dog hair

​

WHAT YOUR DOG SHOULD WEAR

• No retractable leashes!

• A harness if necessary to control your pup.

• Make sure you like the collar or harness, as they will not be removed in photoshop.

​

PLEASE BE EARLY

Please :) We only get this one shot.

• Plan on arriving well before your appointment time so that there is no chance you will be late.

• Make sure you give the pups time to do their business before entering the Carnival.

• Don't forget poop bags!

​

SHARE THE HONOR WITH US 

I cannot stress enough how special an opportunity we have, here. I'm blown away that they are allowing us to do it!

 

The head of the committee told me they've had a strict no-dogs allowed policy since he can remember. It seems we may be the only non-Service Dogs ever allowed inside this event!

​

We'd love to do this again at Northbrook Days & other Festivals. We have permission from the Carnival company, it's just a matter of convincing the organizations that hire them.

 

What's the best chance we have of giving this special opportunity to more people and their pups in the future? Pulling this one off with flying colors! 

 

We thank you in advance for helping us do this! Let's show them how awesome dogs are! We'll be on our best behavior and we appreciate so much your being our fellow ambassadors (and embassadogs 😁)

 

WHAT WE'LL HAVE WITH US

• A wagon to carry our equipment and props. We will have room for a small bag of yours, if you bring one.

• Cotton candy for you to use as a prop. You can finish it afterward if you like 😉

• Fake raffle tickets prop

• Stuffed animal prop

• Wipes for sticky fingers

• Water bottles and a dog bowl.

​

WHAT TO BRING INSIDE THE CARNIVAL

Small towel for eye ickies, drool and other any other woopsies.

​

You tell me what else?

If I forgot something, I'll tell everyone 😎

​

YOUR SESSION

We will decide on scenes when we scout the park before you arrive on shoot day. The Cotton Candy booth, Ticket Kiosk, Carnival Games are musts, in my book. We'll see once we get there (positioning, light, crowd, etc.)

​

Please do not set your heart on getting on a ride. I will do my best to make that happen, but it depends on a lot of factors that are out of my control (how busy it is, how busy the ride we want is, how well-staffed they are that evening, who they can have running the ride, owner availability and more)
