An artist from Los Angeles Yaoyao Ma Van As creates warm and sunny pictures depicting herself and her dog Parker. The illustrations are about the life of a dog owner and everyone who has a dog will recognize themselves in these situations. Those who don’t will realize that nothing stays the same if you decide to get a puppy.

SmallJoys gathered the brightest illustrations that will convince you that dogs and loneliness are just incompatible.
