Thought people may be interested in these. They amused me anyway.

I know you often get horses being mis-sold or different pictures being used in the advert, then you find it's actually a different animal all together, but I have never really noticed it with dogs.

I am often guilty of "BC window shopping" but was taken by surprise to see a familiar picture being used to advertise someone's red merle.
Sure this is Canen Shep?

Surely if you actually do have a dog to sell, why try and source a 'similar looking dog' photo on the internet, rather than just using your own?
Sorry, pet hate of mine.


I realise you can get BCs with 'tag ears' from time to time- I own one ;)- but I think these take the cake.
Do you think someone's spaniel got in? :D ;)

-Just noticed, by complete coincidence, it's the same seller. Ooo-err. I promise I have nothing to do with them and am not just trying to sell dogs on her behalf. ;)

Looking at the picture and googling canen shep I don't think its the same dog. This dog has more colour on its face and its body is paler.

The puppies do look very spaniel like ;)
