They say that people tend to resemble their pets. How many times have you seen a woman with a perm that looks just like her poodle? Or a droopy-faced guy walking his bulldog? Doggie Doubles are everywhere.

Did you know that a dog actually won the Best Actor Oscar at the very first Academy Awards ceremony in 1929? 

Rin Tin Tin, Hollywood’s favorite German Shepherd, actually received the most votes for the big prize. But members of the Academy wanted people to think that their award was serious and prestigious, so they skipped over the dog in favor of silent actor Emil Jannings.
