Anyone who has attempted to get even one dog to stay still for a photo knows how tough it can be — but one woman has done the seemingly impossible with 11 dogs.

Melissa Lentz, who fosters dogs with Releash Atlanta, provided a breakdown of everyone is in this photo to The Dodo.

“From top to bottom, Mia, Pancake, and Paxton,” Lentz added. “Benji, Gizmo, Alex, Penny, Donny, Lula, Monroe, and Rudy, bottom left.”

“Gizmo, Donny, Monroe, and Rudy are mine,” Lentz stated, adding that seven of the featured dogs are fosters looking for homes.

Perhaps much more astonishing is the fact that the flawless portrait was not a one-time occurrence.

“I have a lot of these pictures,” Lentz explained.

Lentz has even been known to join the herd for that ideal image.

But how does she achieve such flawless family photos, which is difficult enough for humans?

Lentz’s mystery appears to revolve around the special bonds she makes with the dogs. The bond between the dogs can practically be seen in the way they stare at her while she takes shots.

“I literally simply place them on the couch one by one, and they choose their own spot!” According to Lentz. “I don’t use any food, treats, or anything like that. I simply tell them to stare at me.”
