Are you expanding this concept outside the region? If so, how so?

Nick Diana: Streamlining the process has always been a concern of mine, and a necessary obstacle in order to stay organized and sane. The problem is finding someone to help me with advertising along the way, and being able to contact those pet businesses in towns where I plan to do another book. This will help draw in more customers. I’m afraid I have to keep those plans secret for now. I don't want to just give someone the key to sidestep all my hard work and experience.

Nick Diana: I have a bachelor's degree in business and marketing, I am an avid skier, snowboarder, painter, hiker, I love the outdoors, and I especially love dogs. I have always been surrounded by them, and I have always wanted to run my own business. One day I spent an afternoon in a book store and sat in the business section reading random books about starting a small business and which business to choose. One advised -- look at all that you love in your life, then make a list of the different businesses you can start. then think of ways to make them unique. City puppies was born shortly after.

My photography experience is definitely amateur, but I am still learning. The thing that makes these photos so beautiful is not my picture, but rather the dogs that are in them.
