Sometimes it seems like we wake up one day and our dogs are old and grey. Other times, their lives are cut short by accident or illness.
In any case, ensuring we have keepsakes and memorials of our dogs can be what gets us through the tough days that follow their passing.
One way we can memorialize our pets is through professional photography.
