Hair by JFK is known for being one of the most dog-friendly salon groups in the UK, so to coincide with Crufts this week, they are looking for Edinburgh’s Next Top Dog Model. Following the release of their hugely successful charity calendar which featured their clients’ dogs, they are organising another doggy photo shoot and are calling for Edinburgh dog lovers to get involved.

Owners are being asked to submit a photo of their pooch and the dog models will be short-listed by the Hair by JFK team before Edinburgh’s Next Top Dog Model is revealed. All the finalists will take part in a photo shoot later this month and the images from the shoot will be used to create a special book featuring all their dog collections. The shoot will combine their two greatest loves – hairdressing and dogs. Owners will be invited to come along to the photography studio where their pets will be pampered and lavished with treats. Each dog will be given a fantastic hairpiece styled by owner Karen Brown using Pet Head products that are stocked in the two Edinburgh salons.

‘We had such an incredible response to our first collection of dog images that it’s something we definitely wanted to do again’ said Hair by JFK South Clerk Street Co-Owner, Gary Skinner. ‘With Crufts taking place this week, we thought it would be a great opportunity to show off the gorgeous dog talent we have here in Edinburgh!’

Now here at The Edinburgh Reporter we had already put out a mini appeal for some doggy photos… Here is what we have so far. If you send yours to us we will add them in at the end of the article. Go on you know we want to see them!

Holly from TLC Scotland sent us a photo of Doris and explained:-“Doris is 1 ½ years old and is a Schnauzer Pug cross. She loves playing in the park and being mischievous! As you can see she gets quite bad bed head!”

Rollo is usually to be found nestling under the desk at Sarah Dallas on Raeburn in Stockbridge or otherwise on the nearest beach…

Here is Adam Bojelian’s much loved Charlie playing in the snow. You can follow teenager, Adam, and his poetry on Twitter  

And next here are two photos of Bolus, an almost 2 year old pug. He loves going to the park but not for  too long:) sofa is his favourite place ever!:)

Elaine sent in this photo below and said:-“This is my mini dachshund Ruby who is a bit of a diva! She’s very cute and she knows it, using her cuteness to get away with nicking food and other notty behaviour! She loves cuddling on the sofa, cleaning the cat’s face & hiding when I say its time for walkies!”

And here is Ziggy….he’s 3 on the 23rd of March. ..loves running on Arthur’s Seat and sleep after lots of cuddles. ..hes the happiest dog in the world!

And here is Laddie – bit of a metrodog.He is a five year old miniature pinscher who commutes between Edinburgh and Glasgow. He loves the beach, long walks and his tweed cape. Always keen to try new things including a hairstyle…..
