A well dressed man and his pet dog pose for their portrait at the Hopson studio in an unknown locale. The bespectacled gentleman stands with a hand on his hip and the dog assumes a wonderful pose while standing on a chair. The reverse of the photograph has a written inscription stating “To Lilla, From Brother Ernest and Trixy”. Due to insufficient information, the identities of the subject and the photographer must remain a mystery. (SOLD)

This “Trixy” ist definitly no doggy-girl, so probably not the dogs name. Look a little closer 😉
You are very observant. Trixy is definitely a boy dog. He must have been very confused when Ernest would say “good girl” to him. Sounds like the subject of a Johnny Cash song.
