Let's say i take a great picture of my dog, in my messy apartment (for example). What is the easiest tool to use to remove the entire background (leaving just the dog) and replace it with a plain or solid background?

Needs to be easy as I am no editing pro & preferably not super expensive, I currently use Luminar 4, but can't figure out how to do it easily (or at all) on there.

Cheers

Photoshop is the best way - there are many kinds of dogs, the more shorter and more compact the hair profile and the more the said pooch stands out from the background - the easier it is

1. Black Lab , beagle etc on a plain wall vs a collie against a similiar colored wooded background.

As the question and post some pooch shots in the

Retouching Forum

and the Canine Committee will respond in swarms.
