I need to fill in the background material that is off frame. I usually use the clone tool in PS however, the dots or repetitive pattern is throwing everything off kilter. Is there another way to fill in the background in PS?
That pattern is going to create an issue. Perhaps a complete background replacement would work. Of course, then one has shadows to consider.
This is an example of something easily fixed prior to making the exposure.

Very rough quick try. Photoshop. Made a selection with the polygonal lasso. Copied and pasted it three times. Moved it to the right to cover the dark space on the right, nudging a bit to try to line up the pattern. The area where the background material is folded doesn't look great but it could probably be blurred. Some pattern problems to the right of the larger dog.
Needs more work but doable.
Not finished with it but I went back to the clone tool and tried with effort to match the dots.
The two dogs are lovable, but canβt say much for the background.

That backdrop is making my eyes crazy! But love the pooches.

Great looking pups and it looks like Tom Depuy did a great job on the background.

Another approach:
Forget about the pattern. Select the pups (and do a better job than I did). Copy them onto another layer. Blur the underlying layer with the background. Use the background that has been filled so you don't get the hole in the upper right.
Gaussian blur around 40 gets rid of most of the pattern.

They are adorable! Just tell them to move over! Ha!
As I mentioned earlier in this post...regarding Background Remover. I ran Background Remover at:
https://www.photoroom.com/background-remover/ against your initial image, took about 5 seconds, and came back with the transparent PNG as shown. Did a pretty fine job. All those white areas in the picture are transparent (although UHH doesn't support transparent PNGs). So, all you need to do is to use a good photo editor (I use Luminar Neo) and place this PNG over whatever background you choose.
Note: In Background-Remover, the user has the option of making the background any solid color, instead of transparency. Your choice.
The second picture is an example of any random background with the Dogs placed as transparent PNG. The user chooses the size and position of the PNG.
