See above: the new group photo has finally been acheived!
This took some doing; place one dog, another one moves. And it was chilly, so Remy didn't want his semi-hairless bum touching the grass for longer than strictly necessary.
Making good use of the Premack Principle, however - by which 'life rewards' such as running off lead, chasing things, playing a game are used to reward good behaviour (so a dog is rewarded for sitting by being allowed off lead) - I persuaded the rabble to pose for their photo on the proviso that they got to charge at me and play afterwards.
Of course I had to keep the camera going for that bit...
