On Saturday a parcel arrived from Japan, and in the box I found this special photo book of Cookie and me, "BEAGLE STORY 2009 - COOKIE AND CINNAMON"!
Back in January Mum found a special offer on a Japanese online content sharing website Life-X: 'An online photo book shop Photoback will make a photo book for you for free if you upload ten or more photos to an online photo album on our website'. So, we signed up for the campaign "Reflect back your memories from 2009" and got this special photo book for free!
It was not easy to choose only 36 photos for the photo book from a huge number of photos taken last year. In order to put as many photos as possible, Mum created a number of collages.
You can see some of the photos we chose for the photo book here! We are very happy to have such a great memorabilia that will be a fantastic tribute to Cookie!!
Although the first copy was free, my humans are now thinking about ordering an extra copy which costs 1,890 Japanese yen (about US$20), because the photo book came out so great! Yes, they have fallen for the shop's marketing tactic!!
Also, I have been in a magazine article recently, as I mentioned briefly in my previous post.
The magazine "Fetch!" is a new New Zealand dog mazagine launched in December. Late last year my friend Honey the Great Dane's human, Hsin-Yi, wrote an article about the Hound Racing Club that I belong to for the second issue of the magazine. She even interviewed my Mum! Thank you so much, Hsin-Yi!!
In the article they talk about Cookie as well, but the photos were taken after he crossed the rainbow bridge, so there is no photo of him in the article unfortunately.
Look at these! Can you find me on the pages?
I was so happy when Bella and Barry the Beagles, who I met at the last coursing of the Hound Racing Club, contacted me after finding me in this magazine!
Cool! You're a literary dog all right!
ReplyDeleteWow, you're famous! Emily wil have to go and buy that magazine for me so I can see your pictures up close!
ReplyDeleteOh and your book looks wonderful, I can totally understand your humans buying more of them!

ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of great pictures! You are a famous athlete now! We enjoyed looking at your photobook. It's worth $20.

Hee! Hee! I knew you were a star from the moment I met you, Cinnamon! :-) That is a gorgeous book - what a wonderful tribute to Cookie - I'm not surprised your humans ordered more!
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on the Fetch magazine article! I'm glad you like it although Hsin-Yi says she agrees with your Mom - that is not the most flattering photo of her! What a shame! Hsin-Yi wishes she could have been there to take photos as she would have made sure she tooks lots and only submitted the ones that your Mom liked but her editor isn't so sensitive!!! :-)
Anyway, YOU look great, Cinnamon - which is the most important thing!
Slobbers,
Honey the Great Dane
What a great book of memories. I love the photos of the both of you in the bed of flowers. Definitely worth getting the extra copy.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting featured on the magazine. More power to the beagles!
