i'll be happy to be Ur USA-agent - i have contacts in local-radio & PBS-tv, plus i can write copy
for several pet-magazines. i can't take promo-photos, but there's a good photographer here -
of course, with black Newfs, they'll just look like a lump of charcoal fur with a pink tongue, anyway,
no matter who takes the publicity-stills.
let me know when the miracle happens... i'm ready to go national!
