OLYMPIA, Washington -- Congratulations are in order for Fusee the dog! She is a mom to eight new puppies, who are already internet famous.

Fusee's owner, Elsa Veria-Means, posted the dog's maternity photo shoot on Twitter June 26 when her pup was 8 weeks pregnant.

"My best friend is 8 weeks pregnant, so we decided to do a maternity photo shoot," Veria-Means wrote.

Although maternity photo shoots are popular with humans, it's a relatively new trend for canine mommies-to-be to pose for Pinterest-worthy pregnancy pictures.

Photographer Clayton Foshaug captured the adorable moment between Fusee and Veria-Means. Foshaug said Veria-Means wanted to do the photo shoot for a while, but it didn't actually come together until the last minute.

Fusee channeled her inner Bohemian, wearing a crown of flowers around her head. In one photo, Veria-Means had a poster that read, "Soon 2 Be Mom!" as Fusee shows off her baby bump.

"Fusee was such a great doggie model and made it easy and fast," Foshaug told our sister station ABC13.

The photo shoot came just in time. Fusee had her puppies Wednesday night.

And in case you're wondering, yes. A photo shoot with Fusee and her new babies is already in the works.
