"Bach the Dog has been the bug-bear of my life recently!!  This picture sums up exactly what I have wanted to do with him since he came into my life, back stage at Les Miserables.... only joking, but hilarious photo especially when you were asked to shoot Bach the Dog!!  It’s the winner for me.  Alfie x"
