As family photography became increasingly popular in the second half of the nineteenth century, the inclusion of the family dog in the picture became virtually de rigeur. As this irresistible galere of canine crowd-pleasers testifies, dogs are not just man's best friends, they are also his finest and most willing photographic models.
