Meet Bodhi, the Adorable Pooch Who Works as a Menswear Model

Life going to the dogs, you say? Wish it were so! Hey...how's it going today. You didn't step in any.... on the way in today, did you? Good! Glad you could make it unsoiled, as it were. Help yourself to a mug of roasted and brewed arabica and a virtual muffin, why don't'cha? Here's a cute story for you and it just shows that once in a while ingenuity pays off. There's hope yet!

Bodhi the dog has no time for silly pastimes like chasing squirrels or playing fetch – he’s quite serious about his high flying career as a top New York menswear model. 

The four-year-old Shiba Inu is well known in fashion circles as ‘Menswear Dog’ – he has landed paid modelling contracts with top brands such as Coach, Todd Snyder and Salvatore Ferragamo. He’s also a social media sensation with over 140,000 followers on Instagram.

Bodhi’s owners – Yena Kim, 27, and Dave Fung, 29 – came up with the idea as a joke; they dressed up their adorable Shiba Inu in a few fancy suits and hats. 

When they posted photographs on their Facebook page, the response they received was overwhelmingly positive. So they started their own Tumblr page featuring Bodhi dressed according to popular fashion trends.

We don't have a dog...or a cat...or a ferret...or a bird. Maybe we could borrow one. I have a cousin who has chickens. Maybe that would...nah!

See ya, eh!
