Celebrities Who Look Like Their Dogs (You Can’t Unsee It)

Celebrities who look like their dogs is one of those things you can’t unsee once you notice it. Sometimes it’s the eyes, sometimes it’s the smile, and sometimes it’s just the exact same energy in two different bodies.

In a well-known study on dog–owner resemblance, participants could often match dogs with their owners using only photos of faces. The idea isn’t that every pet owner looks identical to their dog, but that people consistently perceive resemblance in certain pairings.
