Dog that looks like Laura Dern

You know how some people kind of look like their dogs? Well, what if your dog resembles someone else—like a celebrity? TV critic Margaret Lyons posted a photo of a Maltipoo (a cross between a Maltese and a Poodle) with the caption: “This dog looks like Laura Dern.”

Someone even Photoshopped purple hair on the dog to reflect Dern’s role as Vice Admiral Holdo in Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

The dog in the photo, in case you were wondering, does have his own Instagram account. His real name (yes, it’s a boy) is Kimchee.

What is it about Kimchee that looks so much like Laura Dern? Maybe it’s the hair. Or the intense facial expression. Or a little of both. The real, human Laura Dern didn’t seem to mind; she shared the image and tweeted, “Should she have played Renata in Big Little Lies?!”

Maybe an all-dog version of Big Little Lies is what we need. We just need to find the dog versions of the other actors on the show.
