Just like any other member of our family, we don't notice our dogs aging because we see them every day. It's only when we look back at our old photos of them that we realize our beloved pets aren't puppies anymore.

Of course dogs, like wine, only get better with age, but it can be shocking to look back and realize how much they've changed through the years. These owners all took photos of their dogs to create a shocking "then and now" effect that will make you realize how time flies.
