Did you know that they have actually done research to prove that dogs really do look like their owners?

Really.

It’s out of the University of California, and they say it can only be proven with purebreds.

If you’re interested in the scientific data you can read about it in the journal Psychological Science.

In order to discover if this phenomenon were true, they approached random dog owners in several parks and took pictures of the owners with two dogs, one of which was their own.

Then ‘judges’ looked at the photos and matched the owners with their dogs.

And voila! The judges made a majority of matches.

The study out of California concluded that “it does appear that people want a creature like themselves.”

All this fascinating reading made me think of how God created us ‘in His image’ (Gen. 1:27) and that His desire is that we are ‘conformed to the image of His Son’ (Romans 8:29).

And it made me wonder, do I look like my Master?

All for Him,
