Pet on the Street: How Do You Talk to Your Dog?

by Paw Nation Staff (Subscribe to Paw Nation Staff's posts): Feb 18th 2010 3:00PM Filed Under: Funny Animal Videos

Here at Paw Nation, we know that every pet has a story, and it's usually a story their owners just love to tell. So we decided to hit the streets to ask pets (and their owners) about everything from how they were adopted to what was the naughtiest thing they've ever done. It's our new weekly series, "Pet on the Street." We hope you love it. And be sure to let us know what questions you would like us to ask and what cites we should visit!!

National Dog Show: Show Dogs Looking Like Their Owners

If it's true what they say -- that dogs look like their owners -- nowhere else must that ring truer than at the National Dog Show, where a premium is placed on grooming, and where looks, though not everything, sure do count for a lot.

We went hunting along the aisles of this benched show (where the dogs and their owners hang out during down time) for some same-looking specimens.

Which pair do you think is the twin-iest of them all? Let us know in the comments!

Nancy Rappaport of Denville, NJ, and her 11-month-old Orpheus, know how to rock a bouffant, as well as how to patiently wait for the show to begin!

Tousled, jet-black tresses and piercing, dark peepers lend an air of casual confidence to both Loren Marino from Toms River, N.J., and her 8-month-old Cesky Terrier, Katrina.

High-maintenance hair is what Candy Carswell from East Killingley, Conn., and her 5-year-old English Setter, Nancy, share: fluffed-up, blown-out and honey-hued! (We think the eyes, noses and mouths also resemble one another, no?)

Dashing, handsome and suddenly startled are just three ways to describe both John Merriman of Ocean Grove, N.J., and his 4-year-old Wirehaired Dachshund, Kalinka. And is there a word for "sharing the same distinctive eyebrows?"

Dead ringers! Kat Roll from Coatesville, Pa. and her 9-month-old Lowchen, Sawyer.

The distinctive side part works on pates and snouts alike, and lends Neil Cassel from Fort Washington, Pa., and his 5-year-old Cesky Terrier, Gunther, the aura of your no-nonsense science teacher from high school.

One woman's sporty, on-the-go haircut is one dog's fussy, fancy-follicled, show-ready style. Mollie Stitt of Collegeville, Pa. and her 2-year-old Havanese, Dinoco.

Not only do Kristen Koepsell of Phoenixville, Pa., and her nearly-5-years-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Ruba, share the same adorable, photogenic, attractively auburn coloring, they look like they could star on Broadway as Annie and her pooch pal, Sandy!
