It was a professional picture, sort of.....
Dillan is a certified pet therapy dog - which means he and I have had training to visit patients in hospitals, assisted and critical care facilities, schools, etc. The picture was taken by a professional photographer who did our family photos twice. He is retired and doing digital photos for his clients.
Dillan will be nine in June and has been visiting most of his life. I retired him one year ago. He is smart, full of laughs, lots of energy, and a bunch of fun every day. We are blessed to have such a special little fur kid in our lives. He is our first small dog who sleeps with us and takes naps on our laps. It has been a learning curve for us as we had big dogs prior to Dillan.
