A pack of 17 sausage dogs have celebrated Christmas in style with their very own family photo. Owner Liam Beach from Rhondda, Wales decided to dress the dogs in their very own festive jumpers as yuletide approaches and pose up his proud pack for a quick snap.

Pooches Buster, Daisy, Ziggy, Wallie, Zac, Bonnie, Saffie, Duke, Diamond, Ruby, Kizzy, Sammy, Kansy, Kiki, Lottie, Benji and Dudley were all on their best behaviour as they stood on Liam’s stairs.

He said:

I have done pictures of the dogs previously, dressed up for Christmas on the sofa and thought, I need to top them. So I thought I’d do it on the stairs this year.

It took about 45 minutes to get the picture, because when the dogs were dressed in their outfits they thought it was time to go walking and all went crazy running around the house. So, I had to calm them down before putting them on the stairs.

Once they were on the stairs it took 10 minutes to get the picture using a squeaky ball and a bag of treats this time around. It was a harder picture to get this year because they thought it was walkies.

After a while on the stairs with their jumpers on they began to fall asleep so I had to work hard at keeping them awake and looking at the camera.

People are absolutely loving the picture and commenting how amazing it is and how they are envious of me and that I am lucky having so many.

Last summer, he posed up the pack again for an adorable photo on the stairs.
