Dog Forum Dogs Video?

[The Muttlies]

Since I no longer own a working video camera, I've been trying to come up with new ideas for videos/slideshows.

I thought it would be a neat idea to make a slideshow with each DogForum pup (whoever sends in their photo) and include their name & owner's screenname in the slideshow. Wherever I upload it (most likely YouTube) I will link back to DogForum and hopefully that will pull in some new members/viewers as well. :) Over time, when new members join, I will add onto the video.

This is just a post seeing what everyone thinks of the idea. If I get some people willing to participate, I'll post another thread with details on where to send in your photo/s. :)


Also, if you like the idea -- please post your suggestion for a video song.

[The Muttlies]

My suggestion is Nellie Mckay's "The Dog Song."

I'm just a walkin' my dog
Singin' my song
Strollin' along
Yeah it's just me and my dog
Catchin' some sun
We can't go wrong

My life was lonely and blue
Yeah I was sad as a sailor
I was an angry 'un too
Then there was you
Appeared, when I was entangled
With youth, and fear, and nerves
Jingle jangle
Vermouth and beer
Were gettin' me mangled up

But then I looked in your eyes
And I was no more a failure
You looked so wacky and wise
And I said, lord I'm happy
'cause I'm just a walkin' my dog
Singin' my song
Strollin' along
It's just me and my dog
Catchin' some sun
We can't go wrong
'cause I don't care 'bout your hatin' and your doubt
And I don't care what the politicians spout
If you wanna companion
Well just go right to the pound
And find yourself a hound
And make that doggie proud
'cause that's what it's all about

My life was tragic and sad
Yeah I was the archetypal loser
I was a pageant gone bad
Then there was you on time
And wagging your tail
In the cutest mime
And you was in jail
I said woof, be mine
And you gave a wail
And then I was no longer alone
And I was no more a boozer
We'll make the happiest home
And I said lord I'm happy
'cause I'm just a walkin' my dog
Singin' my song
Strollin' along
It's just me and my dog
Catchin' some sun
We can't go wrong
'cause I don't care 'bout your hatin' and your doubt
And I don't care what the politicians spout
If you need a companion
Well just go right to the pound
And find yourself a hound
And make that doggie proud
'cause that's what it's all about
That's what it's all about
That's what it's all abow-wow-wow-wout
That's what it's all about

Hehe, It came from my friend on another forum. People just like the vote on polls for the heck of it, so we give them something to choose for the heck of it. ;) That way, the poll results aren't swayed by people who couldn't care less, all they wanted was to vote.


But, I could go for some apple pie right now...

*edit* Gorgeous photos, jAn! Awww.. Bruno's mask sure has changed. Louie was a handsome kid.

I'm not going to be accepting the entries yet (just wanting to test the idea and see what everyone thinks) but certainly save 'em for when I do. I'll probably make another post in the Dog General Discussion area with an e-mail to send them to.

I think this is a great idea. (BTW i was VERY tempted to do the i like pie answer, but i resisted, lol)

[lilpantz]

Sweet!

[brunosmom]

no problems kAy...I'll be waiting...hehehe
and the mask changing....yup!!! boy his nose has gotten huge :eek: still cute tho...LOL

[KatzNK9]

Count me in

[PomeranianCrazy]

This is a great idea!! I'M IN!

[The Muttlies]

Glad so far everyone likes the idea! I think it will be fun to make.

Hey, forum directors & admin, what do you all think? :)

[The Muttlies]

Still looking forward to hearing the opinions of the Forum Directors - anyone? :)
Also, I'm still looking for suggestions as to video songs, or did you all prefer my suggestion?

Puplove911, do you just like pie or did you have another idea? :)

[happysaz133]

I am so up for this. Strangely enough we are doing this on another forum I use, a Christmas version, with every dog photo submitted having a Christmass theme.
Anyway, without a doubt, I'd love to submit photos! Here's 2:

Kay this is a very cool idea, only you would come up with. We need changes and this is a great one to try and get. When you need photos, let me know, pm me as I miss some threads, I keep looking so not to. Hope we get it, that would be soooo different than any other?:D

[happysaz133]

Oops just re-read and realised this wasn't for posting pics. Oh well, they're here now :D

[xcolbi]

I'm in! :)

[skunkstripe]

[The Muttlies]

Woohoo! Glad one of the directors tuned in. Makes me feel better getting permission from one of the mods. ;)

[Julia73]

That would be great! I'm in!

[skunkstripe]

Errr I said that was my personal opinion Kay! :p But I don't see how anyone could possibly object! ;)

[The Muttlies]

Ah, still gives me a little sign of relief knowing one of you atleast agrees.

I'm not sure if I should wait to get the go ahead from admin or....?

[Sabledog]

[iwantmypup]

Kay, when can we start putting pictures?
