I'm a huge fan of the PBS program NATURE and of course an avid dog lover, so this is right up my alley! Shot in high-definition, DOGS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD investigates canine evolution and how dogs through the ages contribute to the socio-economic history of man which continues today. DOGS features breathtaking cinematic sequences taped around the world from Xolo dogs in Mayan ruins in Mexico to singing dogs in the jungles of Papua New Guinea. Airs Sundays, April 22 & 29 on PBS. Check your local listing for time.

Seattle Pet Photographer Bev Sparks on Oprah!

Seattle's renowned pet photographer Bev Sparks and her images will be featured by none other than t.v.'s talk show queen...Oprah! The show airs April 25th and is all about dogs, with Bev's beautiful images as the backdrop. Bev has shot three covers for CityDog Magazine as part of our ongoing effort to support local animal welfare groups. This cover was auctioned off at last year's Tuxes & Tails, the Humane Society for Seattle/King County's annual fundraiser. CityDog is donating another cover at this year's Tuxes & Tails, with Bev once again donating her time and talent. Tuxes & Tails is this Saturday, April 21st (for more details visit www.seattlehumane.org). You can bid to have your dog on the cover of CityDog Magazine, photographed by Bev Sparks! To see more of Bev's work visit www.dogphotography.com.
