People are getting really bold with their reposts.

  • Pretend it's my friend/relative's animal? Check.
  • Get the breed wrong? Check.

Weeee, get karma from the oblivious.

[–]worstcaseontario_ 40 points41 points ago

for the record thats an aussie shep right? damn good looking dogs.

[–]Kiltsoftly 7 points8 points ago

I think so. Reposter didn't even get the damn breed right.

[–]moose_85 8 points9 points ago

A quick-n-dirty Google search shows that this pic has been making its way through Tumblr with the same incorrect breed in the description. Every site I've found so far points toward this BDH Aussies blog as the origin. All the blog says is that his name is Murphy and that he's 4 weeks old in the picture.

EDIT: I'm gonna email the blog owner and see if he can provide more information about the dog.

EDIT: Here's the email I wrote. I'll update with a self post if/when I get a response.

EDIT: Here is the follow-up post.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

The repost before this didn't get it right either.

[–]x2V 12 points13 points ago

yeah. this picture was up last week. -.-

[–]featherrocketship 7 points8 points ago

And it was a repost then too.

[–]lastpagan 7 points8 points ago

HE'S A BIG FAT PHONY

[–]Peachy88 4 points5 points ago

Came here to check that someone else caught this, but I'll say what I said last time I saw this pic. I have never seen a more beautiful animal in my life.

[–]moose_85 6 points7 points ago

The last time this was reposted and made it to the front page (4 days ago?) someone said that the blue eyes were photoshopped.

EDIT: I should add, last time this made it to the top, OP claimed that he picked this puppy up from the shelter.

[–]elapsedecho 0 points1 point ago

They definitely look it.

[–]Fatumsch 2 points3 points ago

Third time this week! I thought re-posts were frowned upon.

[–]HappyAssassin 1 point2 points ago

And it's all for imaginary points on the internet...I don't think I'll ever understand that.

[–]zeeebee 63 points64 points ago

I know its the internet but I still dont like when people lie

[–]ask0 13 points14 points ago

and so badly that it insults our intelligence

somebody find the source of this picture and let people know that it has already been posted to reddit as somebody's best friends dog.

[–]SmuggleCats 6 points7 points ago

Funny thing is it's still getting upvoted. People seem to see a cute animal and not even think at all.

[–]AmbiguousStatement 38 points39 points ago

How the flying fuck are people accepting this as a Golden/Husky mix? It's an adorable pup and I have no problems upvoting if someone wants to share a cute picture they found online, but don't lie your ass off.

[–]DeepVs_for_DeepGuys 20 points21 points ago

If that's not an Australian Shepard I don't know what happened to my eyes

[–]YakitoriMan 58 points59 points ago

Repost again. It's an Australian shepherd

[–]Gird_Your_Anus 9 points10 points ago

Yeah, it is an aussie shepherd. I have one. It has papers and looks identical.

[–]MacAndTheBoys 3 points4 points ago

Thank you. Gotta love the blue merle Aussies

[–]SicilSlovak 2 points3 points ago

". . .It's a fucking show dog with fucking papers. You can't board it. It gets upset, its hair falls out. Fucking dog has papers, Dude."

This is definitely and Australian Shepherd... I don't even.

[–]sparrowmint 0 points1 point ago

A lot of people are ridiculously ignorant about dog breeds. My husband and I have a housemate, and he wouldn't even be able to pick a golden retriever out of a line up.

[–]Sherruf 23 points24 points ago

My friends got a new dog too. He's called FUCK YOU REPOSTER.

Die in a fire

[–]BretticusWins 11 points12 points ago

Fucking repost.

[–]shoejam93 7 points8 points ago

how does shit like this get so close to the front page!

[–]moose_85 1 point2 points ago

Because there are lots and lots of Redditors who mindlessly upvote images that easily expand with RES without bothering to read the comments.

[–]MeNicolesta 9 points10 points ago

You misspelled Australian Shepard, OP.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

So did you.

[–]ask0 17 points18 points ago

Dear OP

Where did you get this picture of your friends doggy? Could you give us a background story.

Did you know that our friend has so many other redditor friends who have already posted the same picture of this dog.

[–]bisubie88 8 points9 points ago

Down voted, for being to stupid/lazy to do a little research before you reposted.

[–]IrritatedFlower 8 points9 points ago

This is actually my brother's cat.

[–]skidoosh123 5 points6 points ago

I dont get why people take images and try to make them their own...is Reddit karma REALLY that important in your life?

Oh wait...

[–]NovaDeez 4 points5 points ago

Congrats, after six months your very first submission ever is a repost and a lie.

[–]sharkswithlasers88 4 points5 points ago

This was posted like two days ago by another person who was called out for saying this was golden/husky when it's CLEARLY an Australian shepherd. Really OP? You even had to use the same photoshopped image instead of the original? Really?

[–]beccajenny5692 7 points8 points ago

if the puppy had husky in him, his ears would not look like that.

[–]Nimbal 3 points4 points ago

[–]heyivebeenthere 3 points4 points ago

Feel ashamed puddle of crap, this is honestly the saddest attempt at karma whoring i have every seen. This exact picture was up last week. Even if you did get karma out of it, it's not good karma and you will fail in life with this kind of work. You, puddle of crap, do not deserve a reddit account.

[–]diamond_nips 2 points3 points ago

REPOST

[–]superultrakami 2 points3 points ago

Yeeeeeeah, that puppy is quite clearly an Australian Shepard, not sure why you would lie about it

[–]keekee1983 2 points3 points ago

Why you lie, OP? Why you make us so sad???

I feel bad for downvoting an 'awww' worthy doggywoggy. But I smite you, OP. I smite you with the blue arrow!

[–]EmmaInk 1 point2 points ago

Yeaaah this is definitely a little merley Australian Shepherd.
I have one ;)

[–]PlayfulPunches 1 point2 points ago

Liar liar pants on fire!!

"Three blasts?! But that means..." "Puppies!!!!"

[–]Derpina_Derpshire 0 points1 point ago

Wrong.

[–]Despisear 0 points1 point ago

Said it before I could. Australian Shepherd is what you're looking for...

[–]awkwardbabble 0 points1 point ago

I'm pretty sure I saw this the other day, someone saying it was THEIR new puppy.... If you are going to repost, wait more than a week.. Jeez

[–]actioncomicbible 0 points1 point ago

Repost. We all know that is a Slow Loris. How your friend has it is beyond me and it is totally illegal. I hope your friend goes to jail for what he/she is doing. Owning these creatures is wrong, cruel, and illegal. You and your friends are bad...

And you should feel bad.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

actually its mine, its a slow loris-golden retriever mix that i rescued 5 seconds before he was going to be put down. DEM EYES!

[–]I_LOVE_ASPARTAME 0 points1 point ago

you should feel bad

[–]Woahaoooo 0 points1 point ago

I thought the puppy was cute. But now I'm reading the comments and find out this is a repost v.v poor dog he doesnt deserve a downvote

[–]choosay 0 points1 point ago

I have an Australian shepherd, I wish he looked like this!!!!

[–]Nick_SonofReddit 0 points1 point ago

Bad dog.... Why you let him repost you ;)

[–]baker781 0 points1 point ago

[–]madpenguin 0 points1 point ago

I logged in just to downvote you, you piece of shit. Burn for it.

[–]aliendanceparty 0 points1 point ago

This is is one of the most beautiful dogs I have ever seen. Don't really care what breed or the origin. Whoever is the owner is a lucky person.

[–]bunnywings 0 points1 point ago

This looks nothing like a golden/husky... It has to be an aussie shepard.

[–]pancakeses -3 points-2 points ago

That' the most ridiculously cute thing I've seen on Reddit this week!!!

[–]NecroM0rph -1 points0 points ago

The photoshop on this one is strong.
