Before and After Texture Replacement

I've submitted this collage to my photo club for Pet Portrait month. I caught this handsome guy at the Dog show in July and then a member did a presentation on changing out back grounds in PhotoShop for a more pleasing image. It's a great skill to master and I'll have to keep practicing.
