Among all the headshots of smiling students in a Louisiana middle school’s new yearbook, one photo clearly sticks out. 
 
 It shows Presley, a service dog, and the photo in West Monroe’s Good Hope Middle School yearbook has been drawing a lot of attention since it started bouncing around the internet last week. 
 
 The 5-year-old golden doodle shows up in the yearbook next to her owner Joseph “Seph” Ware, a 14-year-old Good Hope seventh-grader diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The student relies on Presley to help him get around. 
 
 “We’re kind of stunned at all the attention,” the boy’s mom, Lori Ware, told FoxNews.com Friday. “It’s humbling. I’m glad Presley is making the world happy.” 
 
 Ware, 52, said her son has been drawing a paw print when classmates ask him to sign their yearbooks on behalf of Presley. 
 
 “He’s loving it,” she said of her son. 
 
 Presley has been at Seph’s side since she was a small puppy. 
 
 When picture day came around, school officials wanted to include the dog in the yearbook with the other students, Al.com reported this week. 
 
 Ware said her son's response was, “why not.” 
 
 “Seph says that it took about 10 minutes to get Presley to look at the camera - and who knows how many shots,” she told Al.com. 
 
 Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a genetic condition that causes progressive muscle weakness, AL.com reported. People diagnosed with the condition are usually confined to a wheelchair by the time they are teens. 
 
 Good Hope students love having Presley around, Ware said. 
 
 “They aren’t supposed to pet her, but they sneak pets in the hallways after classes,” she told FoxNews.com. “And if Presley hears someone say, ‘Oh, look at the pretty puppy,' she perks right up because she knows she’s pretty.” ||||| A service dog who attends school with her owner in Louisiana is getting plenty of attention online after the boy's school included the female golden doodle in its yearbook. 
 
 Joseph "Seph" Ware, 14, of West Monroe, La., has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a diagnosis he was given at the age of 3. The genetic condition causes progressive muscle weakness and muscle wasting, with most patients confined to wheelchairs by the time they are teens. 
 
 Ware's service dog, Presley, has been with him for the past four years, including when Seph attends classes at Good Hope Middle School. When picture day came around, school officials decided to include Presley - who has a canine sibling named Elvis - in the yearbook with all the other students. 
 
 Seph's mother, Lori Ware, told AL.com on Wednesday that her son's reaction was, "Why not," when school officials asked his permission to include Presley in the yearbook. 
 
 "Seph says that it took about 10 minutes to get Presley to look at the camera - and who knows how many shots," Ware said. 
 
 Ware said she thinks the administrators' gesture was a great one since, in the past, Presley has not been welcomed as openly at school. 
 
 "We have had issues with his elementary school accepting Presley, so to come to Good Hope and her to be welcomed has been very refreshing," Ware said. "The kids adore her and she loves the attention." 
 
 The administrators' gesture has also gained traction on social media. 
 
 A recent story in the News-Star, Monroe's local newspaper, highlighted the work that Presley does for Ware. The 5-year-old Presley and her canine sibling, Elvis, reunited last month for a visit after years apart. Elvis lives and works as a service dog in Wisconsin, also for a young boy with muscular dystrophy. 
 
 Both dogs help their young owners by doing things for them that their weakened muscles no longer allow, like picking up things they drop, hitting light switches and opening drawers, the news story reported. 
 
 Duchenne muscular dystrophy, one of nine types of the disease, is caused by a missing protein that, in most people, helps keep muscle cells intact. According to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, it affects primarily boys. 
 
 Besides the muscle deterioration leading to physical impairment, the disease also affects the heart and respiratory muscles. Advances in cardiac and respiratory care in recent years has expanded patients' life spans, making survival into their 30s more common. 
 
 There are also cases of those affected living into their 40s and 50s, the MDA reports.
– The cutest yearbook photo ever was just taken by Presley at Good Hope Middle School in Louisiana. In fairness to everyone else's not-quite-as-cute yearbook photos, Presley is a 5-year-old golden doodle. She's also a service dog for seventh-grader Joseph "Seph" Ware, who was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy when he was 3 years old, Al.com reports. Presley has been attending class with Seph for a few years, so it only seemed right for the school to give the dog her own yearbook photo, right next to Seph's. "Seph says that it took about 10 minutes to get Presley to look at the camera—and who knows how many shots," his mother, Lori Watkins-Ware says. Presley's yearbook photo went viral, and Ware says Seph is his having his "15 minutes of fame," Good Morning America reports. Though she tells Fox News her family can't believe all the attention the photo is getting. “It’s humbling," Ware says. "I’m glad Presley is making the world happy.” Presley helps Seph with everything from turning on light switches to opening doors. Now Seph is returning the favor. Ware says other students have been asking Presley to sign their yearbooks, so Seph helpfully draws a paw print for her.
