That's a magazine cover right there.

Definitely tear jerker of a photo.

Wow I was looking at the casket and the picture above it and didn't see the dog until it hit me hard. Big time tear jerker.

I can't get this photo out of my head.. the mark of a truly moving image. It makes me want to start a file of "shots I wish I'd taken"

Dogs are sooo amazing! I don't think we give them enough credit for their emotions.
