Need help photoshopping someone into a picture

[amac1222]

I had wonderful family pictures taken for our Christmas card, however, I really wanted our puppy in it, but she is 80lb lab who is still hard to handle. Is there a way to put her in our Christmas pic without it being totally obvious its fixed? Ive tried tutorials and cannot seem to figure it out :( PLEASE HELP
