Pet Photographer Says Better Photos Save Shelter Dogs' Lives

Teresa Berg of Dallas, Texas is a professional pet photographer who specializes in glamour shots for shelter dogs. She believes that thousands of dogs are euthanized every year simply because the photos posted on adoption sites show them in a cage, looking like they’re thinking about biting your three-year-old. Several years ago, she started volunteering to retake dogs’ photos for a dachshund rescue group, and now she encourages other professional photographers to donate their services and teaches shelter employees to take more appealing pet photos.
