This Adorable Dog Just Nailed Her Pregnancy Photoshoot

by Gillian Fuller

Sorry, moms-to-be: You'll never have a maternity shoot as flawless as this one.

Brazilian photographer Ana Paula Grillo recently held a pregnancy photoshoot for Lilica, the cutest dog-mommy you'll ever see.

The shoot, posted to Imgur, features the brown and black pup displaying her round belly in all its maternal glory. If it sounds ridiculous, it is — but that doesn't make it any less adorable.

Most of the commenters on Imgur were all about the flawless photoshoot, although some, ahem, close-minded individuals felt the need to write it off as “white nonsense.”

Whatever, haters. Lilica is glam and she knows it.

Check out the adorable pics below and see more of Grillo's work on Facebook.

Remarkably, Lilica went into labor the day after the shoot.

And in just 20 minutes she gave birth to five beautiful puppies.

And that, my friends, is called girl power. Keep on keepin' on, Lilica.
