Do people resemble their pets?
« on: 01/04/2017 11:44:28 »
Naji Aziz got in touch and asked this wonderful question:

"Is there any scientific evidence, and perhaps explanation, for the apparent facial resemblance between dogs and their owners?"

Anyone got any objective evidence to support this claim?

That's hilarious!

What do you think it feels like to wear? My guess would be "ruff"... ;)

I've never come across that before. I hope they de-flea'd the dog first too...
