One for the album: Spot is wondering why his owners have extra e-collars just lying around
Animal lovers are known to do just about anything for their pets.
But these families seem to have gone a step further to show their affection.
A set of hilariously posed photos from the team behind AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com is a reminder of what can happen when pet owners become a bit obsessed.
Mike Bender and Doug Chernack are the authors of Awkward Family Photos, a collection of some of the most excruciating poses, hairstyles and fashion choices ever to be captured in print. An online gallery ranges from absolutely absurd (take the example of a man posing with a monkey in the shower), to overly staged (a family dressed in white gowns and tuxedos posing with their Maltese).
