Dogtoons -Chapter 1 - Monty's diary of the photoshoot with Keogh and Magic
I recall a colleague of mine, film director Gerry Lively, of Hollywood USA, telling me “Monty, the golden rule of filming is never work with ABC – Animals, Boats, Children ”. However, I don’t think of me, or my mates, Keogh and Magic, as animals, per say. So just to prove Gerry wrong I made a little diary of my latest photo shoot. When my agent booked us recently for a film session I heard him telling the acclaimed cinematographer, Bryan Lofftus - [Bryan, by-the-by, is at present in Ireland, working on the film “BOTCHED”, directed by Kit Ryan] - that wired haired Fox Terriers and Alaskan Malamutes can hit really hit their marks. We might have our awkward moments but we are in control. I cannot comment on the cat’s performance for contractual reasons.

MONTY'S DIARY Well, Here we are on the location ready to go, but Keogh is such an inexperienced pup I know am going to have to teach him how to pose for photographs.
