Model Call

Have your sighthound featured in Whiptails photography

Would you like the chance for your dog to be a model, and experience an afternoon with them on their own commercial fashion shoot?

At Whiptails I am regularly shooting new material in and around Glasgow, which includes searching for dog models to feature in Whiptails advertorial content. This is an opportunity for you and your dogs to get involved!

Quiet locations with limited distractions and no other dogs are chosen to ensure your dog is set up for success. For this reason, woodland locations and city locations with crowds are never chosen. All locations are scouted ahead of time, to determine their suitability and to assess if and at which times they are quiet and distraction-free. In the model casting form below you can let me know which location types your sighthound feels comfortable in. Most shoots will run over the summer months, during the days with the most light.

What do you get?

An afternoon out with your dog on a fashion shoot. You are welcome to bring someone along with you on the day.
Take home an outfit your dog wears for free.
A free copy of the selected images for use online.

What are the requirements?

Your dog will need to understand the stay command. This will be done with you standing close by, no need to perform the command at a far distance.
You must be able to travel to Glasgow. *Travel expenses are not paid.
Your dog must be a sighthound, I’m looking for Greyhounds, Whippet & Italian Greyhounds. Lurchers and long dogs who fit into Whiptails apparel are also welcome to join!
You must help guide your dog around on the shoot – I will give you full instructions on how to do so throughout the shoot.
Your dog must have a fair level of obedience and can follow your lead, for this reason, dogs under the age of 1 will not be invited to shoot.
Please consider how well your dog travels, if you are planning on travelling from outside Scotland, apply only if you know your dog is happy after travelling.
You must sign an agreement, giving me permission to photograph and use your dog’s images and videos as marketing materials at Whiptails.

Optional (Bonus)

In the model casting form below, upload a photo of your dog wearing their Whiptails apparel to show you are a fan of the brand.
The sit command is desirable.

What happens if my dog has been selected to model?

If I am interested in casting your dog as a model, I will reach out to you with the contact information you provide in the model casting form below. I will check over what your dogs needs are, give you details about the upcoming photoshoot and try to arrange a date with you that suits us both. However, if you are not available to attend within a reasonable time period, I will have to reach out to someone else to take part in the shoot.

Weather conditions can result in a change of schedule, like a delay in the start time for a shoot. For example, if there is heavy rain scheduled for the time our shoot starts, you will be asked to start the shoot at a different time on the same day. However, there is always a chance the shoot will need to be moved to another day. This is a risk to consider if you have to book transport in advance or if you are travelling to Scotland from another country.
