Dogs are man's best friend because they're loyal, non-judgmental, protective, and bring us emotional support and joy. We often take pictures of our four-legged companions, and some people even do photoshoots with them. They're just so darn cute. 

Courtney Gelish from 'Unleashed Canine Care' shared why she loves doing professional photoshoots for her dog with 'The Harris Company': "Any chance I get to have a professional photographer capture Mack – I don’t walk, I run to book it! We all take pictures of our dogs with our phones (I take them for my clients all day), but there is something about the way a photographer can capture the glimmer in their eye, or the little whiskers on their chin, or even the way their ears perk up at the word “cookie”. It’s really special and I love looking at the pictures that line my walls and bookshelves of Mack – each and every one is tied to a memory, at time in both of our lives, where we were growing and learning together."

We love taking dog photos not only because they're adorable, but also because they're a part of our joyous moments and family portraits feel incomplete without them. These pictures help us cherish memories, share our affection, and show our furry companions' charm to everyone.

Dogs are not just our best friends, but also our oldest companions. While historians agree that dogs were the first animals to be domesticated, there's still debate about when and where this friendship began.

According to 'My Pet' website "Based on DNA evidence, most researchers believe that the furry, warm-nosed companion beside you descended from a group of gray wolves that has since become extinct. Those canny canines figured out that if they hung with early hunter-gatherers rather than going it alone, they could live off what they could scavenge from the humans."

Scientists believe that the special connection between humans and wolves started when people began raising wolf pups, creating a bond from a young age. Working together, humans and tamed wolves became a skilled hunting team, using their respective strengths to track and catch prey.

In exchange for a steady food source, humans received warmth and early warnings from the tamed wolves. This partnership continued over generations, leading to the development of obedient companions and the eventual domestication of dogs, while wild gray wolves became less common.
