| | I don't know if this should be here or in Arts and Crafts. It's just too cute!!!
Some of you have seen how the Beast was kind enough to "model" my crochet work for me.
Well, look at this lady's dog. This is a real live Yorkie!!!  |

You too can have a Yorkie model.

Photoshop? Oh.
It really is impossible to tell these days, isn't it?

| | How can you tell? Do you mean the backgrounds are photoshopped or the costumes are? I still think the costumes are real. |

| | Um - nevermind.
The photos are real. The dog is not. She MAKES the dogs from felt and dresses them in crochet outfits. |

| | It's a stuffed bear with the dog's face placed in.
A few telltale signs:
Look at the hard edges around the face. Now look at how soft all the other edges in the photos are.
Next look at the paws. They are tubular with no discernable doggie shape to them. Look at the texture of the hair. Looks a lot like plush doesn't it? Yorkie hair is long and silky. Even if it's cut, it's still hair, not fur.
Look at the bunny picture in particular. Have you ever seen a dog sit in that kind of posture? Look at how the front legs are stiff and stick out to the side. And where are the dog's natural ears? Look at the position of the ears in the basket photo? The bunny ears, placed as they are would not cover the Yorkie's ears completely.

Good, because I was going to point out that they're not even the same dog in all of them. And, piss poor Yorkie specimens to boot.
