    The holidays are here!  I can tell because my stats show people are searching for "dog ornaments", "dog greeting cards", "vintage dog christmas cards," and more.  If you've been thinking about advertising this season, now is the time to stake your claim on my sidebar.  I have new larger square ad space available and an excellent designer named Sabrina Helas who will create an ad for you for the recession-friendly price of $50 (it was $100 in the bubble days).

    Ads with dogs from the 1940s

    Nancy Page is a graphic designer who needs help with her homework.  Actually, she’s doing fine on her own, but you might want to take a look at her research project because it’s fascinating.  For her MA in Advertising Design at Syracuse University, she is looking at dogs in advertising through the years to see “if and how our perceptions of dogs has changed over the years.”

    She has collected all her examples on her website See Spot Sell, along with interviews from experts in the fields of dogs, design, and advertising.  I spent quite a while looking at the ads, trying to pick my favorites and couldn’t.  They are all compelling for different reasons, but what is most interesting is comparing the decades to each other, and I guess that’s the point.  Looking at dogs to see ourselves and how we have changed.

    If you have any ads to contribute, email Nancy
    .   See Spot Sell is still a work in progress.  Good luck!

    We will collaborate on an ad that evokes your individuality and complements Dog Art Today’s style.  And just like you won’t see ads for motor oil or pizza in a real art gallery, you won’t see them here.  Every ad is a work of art.  — Moira McLaughlin

    Testimonials

    • "Dog Art Today is an amazing resource and advocate for my fine art dog portraiture business.  It brings the right eyes to my branding, and puts me in constant sight of potential new clients.  Contemporary dog art is a niche market, and Dog Art Today makes it accessible to all. "  --  Jesse Freidin, San Francisco fine art dog photographer

    • "Advertising on Dog Art Today has given me more exposure and recognition for the fine art pet portraits and pet photography classes that I teach online.  It's a perfect venue for me.  I have students from all over the world in my class, so the international reach of Dog Art Today is wonderful."  -- Jill Flynn, Visual Harmony Photography

    • "My ad with your blog site has been very successful.  I have noticed a very large increase in the number of visits and I'm hoping this leads to an increasing number of links to the site and eventually some sales.  At the very least people are looking at my art.  Thanks bunches." -- Susan Ritz, watercolor pet portrait artist

    • "We have advertised for two years now on Dog Art Today, ever since we knew it was an option.  We track the activity on our website and can see how visitors arrived there, so we know that there are daily "hits" that were directed from our Dog Art Today advertisement.  Our business is not one that can be understood in a small ad.  Online advertising has proven to the best advertising venue for us;  where someone that is curious or interested can just click on the ad and immediately connect to our site to learn more about Art From Ashes."  -- Deb Brown, co-owner of Art from Ashes
