Aside from his obsession with non-organic bacon and occasional toxic emissions, your pooch is about as green as they come. So why not show him a little love with a trip to South Miami’s Doggy Studio & Boutique? Photographer Shelly Guberek is finally celebrating the grand opening of her concept store, which has been taking studio-perfect shots of area pets since late last year. Her work has sold at Art Basel and been on exhibit at The Frost Museum, so don’t think for a second that anything you could snap would ever come close to a photo by Guberek. It won’t. Plus, she has the magic touch with dogs — she’s able to calm the high- strung, elicit excitement from the aloof and teach manners to the unruly, just as she has done with her own adopted Weimaraner. After Fido finishes his sitting, indulge him in all kinds of unique products, toys and organic treats stocked by the boutique, while you review his cover-worthy poses.
