I wasn't aware internet people existed who hadn't seen this yet.

I followed a link off that page and learned that Richard Biggs, who played Dr. Franklin on Babylon 5, died suddenly of heart failure in May, 2004. I had not known this, and now I am sad.

I do like the photos though. I would like to see a fresh set of new winners.

Sorry folks, search came up clean - guess I didn't set the date range correctly.

There's always some bald, jowled man who resembles his bulldog.

These photos are ancient in internet-time, but I don't know if they've ever been on Metafilter before. Still amusing, though.

Call me crazy, but those people sort of look like their dogs!

Do people submit these themselves? I can't figure how they all got the same backgroud unless they photoshopped the pictures or invited them all in for studio sessions.
If the pictures are photoshopped then the whole thing is much less enjoyable from some perspective, although it makes it a bit more technically interesting.

these are pro photos from an ad campaign for dog food - that's why they all look the same, four.

I believe this was some sort of marketing campaign for "caesar dinners" or something. So, no, four flavors, the whole conceit is contrived.
funny though.

I believe it was an ad campaign, so it may not really be their dogs. Not sure about photoshopping, it could just be good casting & photography.

I think some of these pictures are altered anyway, namely the third and fourth (the greyhound guy's eyes are unnaturally big, but it could be the lens or something too)

It wasn't a doublepost, lilboo, just old news (ca. 2000).

yes, it's an ad campaign for Cesar dogfood.
I understand Cesar has been thinking of changing his name to Mr. Dog.
