  • Dogs in Shops: Model Behaviour on Marylebone High Street

    Marylebone High Street has long been one of my favourite places to shop in London.

    Well, I say shop.

    Mostly I just wander through on my way to somewhere else, perusing the lovely clean boutique-y rails from the outside in, pretending my hair is glossier than it is and that I can afford to buy more than just a drink from Starbucks.

    (What is a soy chai latte anyway?)

    Fitting, then, that this is where we should find our second shop dog of the series, a hound who would definitely make me want to spend £100 on something I couldn’t afford in order to pat his head.

    Clad in  some sort of canine hoody – what else – and modelling his likeness on a canvas in the window, this dog has quite possibly the pointiest ears I’ve ever seen, and such artistic talent to boot.

    “I tried to negotiate 2 for 1 deal, but sadly no such luck” said Kara, who snapped the pic and sent it over.

    Such a missed sales opportunity: forget Advantage Card points, I want that pup.

     

    See the other dogs here. If you’ve seen a shop dog, please send it my way. I am collecting them one by one, saving up their fluffy faces for a rainy day.
