EXTENSIVE GENRE RESEARCH: Prominent magazines featuring 'pet dogs'

                  

While there are a few existing magazines about animals be it wild or any other category of animals, there is still a very low number of pet dog magazines worldwide. Animals magazines, wildlife magazines, birdwatching magazines, zoology magazines etc are totally brushed off in the face of many readers which leads to less specifically dog care magazines. Apart from this we still see a number of magazines that put an emphasis on pet dogs and their care. 

One really known example of this is the 'Modern Dog Magazine'.

                 
         
Here we see this magazine dealing with giving the perfect guide to taking care of our dogs (puppies specifically) as the taglines and the cover lines say for instance "30 days to a better dog", "Know your dogs", "natural remedies", "Train your puppy" etc. 

The next prominent magazine to feature all about dogs and their grooming is 'Animal Wellness'. 

         

As seen in these magazine covers, the target audience for this magazine too are the dog parents. This magazine also highlights a lot of dog accessories and things related to them that dog owners could buy. Such as the cover lines say "15+ foods that fight cancer", "The best foods for skin allergies", "ovary spraying spray" and many more. 

And lastly we have another eminent magazine that talks about the same genre that is 'Dogster'.

               
This magazine is a fun and informative source for dog owners and lovers. Dogster has everything from advice on ownership, to videos and pictures of various dogs.  

Dog care  magazines are rarely found but they are proven a perfect guide to dog parenting and for dog owners and lovers.

DISTRIBUTION STRATEGY

As far as the distribution of my magazine is concerned, it will be made available in majorly all urban areas that are highly populated. These would be Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, and Multan in particular since statistics and research states that mostly dog owners are found in these urban areas.   I will be selling my magazine's copies at a fair price in the number of 1000. These will be available at big shops and stalls where mostly the upper class, upper middle class, and the middle class people will have their reach. 

PREPARATIONS DONE

 Before my shoot, all my preparations needed to be done before hand which included washing my dog, cleaning him up and putting the necessary props in front of him to engage his focus when needed.  I made sure all my pictures in the first shoot as well as in the reshoot had a specific meaning and every pictures conveys a specific story. 

SCHEDULE

 I didn't have to plan a complicated detailed schedule for my shoot since the model was available at my house at all times but the most important factor that needed to be considered surely affects my schedule making, i.e. lighting. I usually had classes in the morning and would be back by 3-4pm and till then, broad daylight wouldn't have been present at all for a good shoot. Instead I planned to do it on a weekend when I would start the shoot early.   -Saturday 12th March. 11am- 1pm This was the day and time I initially planned my shoot but unfortunately the weather was unfavorable and it rained too, which led me to having to delay my dates.  -Sunday 13th March I did my shoot on this day on the same timings, I had a broad daylight and the weather worked in my favor too. The shoot was done for the cover page as well as my double spread and content page.  -Thursday 18th March On this day I had to do a reshoot because my previous shoot had some flaws and was definitely ...
