Human Dog Hybrid - Is This True?

So have you heard of the human dog hybrid? This photo was taken in a remote location somewhere in Australia. A traveller discovered a family of human dogs relaxing on a couch. The mother is busy pouring milk to her babies. The youngest baby human dog got pissed off with his two siblings because they kept bullying him and calling him names such as “arf-arf” and “doggy”.

Of course the previous paragraph is not true. The human dog hybrid family in the photo was created by Patricia Piccinini, an Australian sculptor.human-dog-hybrid

I have seen more bizarre artworks in the past but this one is somewhat different. When you view the artwork in different perspectives, some may think of the possibilities of creating a human dog hybrid, or perhaps a human cat, or a human roach- and the list goes on. Others might derive social issues such as sexism and sexual reference. The artwork may be conveying dog-like attributes to women. Remember, a female dog is sometimes referred to as a bitch.

If I were to create my own argument regarding this piece of artwork, I would try to target Piccinini’s approach to the mixing of human and dog attributes. Based on the sculpture, the human dog hybrid is more likely a human skeleton wrapped with dog skin. I would like to challenge more creative ideas from the readers. What do you think?

    Waaah ang weird ng artwork. Para sa akin human, dog at pig hybrid. Pero and unique ng artwork na ito ha…

  • This not possible but really a nice thought.

  • You know what, when I first saw that picture my initial thoughts were “eww” and “how ugly”, but it really is an amazing piece of art considering. The only thing is, it looks more like a picture of human-pigs to me, but then pigs dont have floppy ears… do they?
    I like your idea of how this relates to the term “bitch”, and I think that could well be what the artist is trying to portray. I think as well that the more you study the image, the more beautiful the mother and baby concept appears, thus highlighting the natural beauty of parenting. So maybe this image isn’t so gross after all!

  • It’s weird but it looks good. Nice artwork. You should have not included the in the picture the images of feet of the people to look more credible! Hehe… But anyway, it’s a nice piece of art.

  • Very creative but look weird.

  • Haha. My best friend informed me of this photograph. How could this be possible? Only one response; art.

  • It is not real! Funny enough, the pict/info is in circulation in Nigeria now. That a hunter discovered it on 9 sept 2009 in Badagary Lagos.(Pict that has been on web before aclaimed date - 9 sept 2009.

    Pls preach it loud to discontinue circulation of the fallacy

  • hahaha….. human dogs?? coooooool

  • @Ironi and Kelly - Yeah. This is not real. It’s just a sculpture. A work of art.

  • why would people do this this is sick. people should not do things like this. i read on other pages that people are trying to create this thing i say that they should not because you are messing with life.

  • this is really true?????? if yes, amazing..

  • I agree that it should be a bit more creative. I could see where sexism might come into play, but maybe our race should stop thinking that EVERY single work and movement has something to do with predjudiced actions. Really, I find the sculpture delightfully real-looking, though perhaps the artist could have made the feet a bit more paw-like for effect. In all though, I enjoy the sculpture, and beleive it be very, to use coloqueism, cool.

  • that is so fucking gross like who in the hell would think of that and for all you bloggers who cant spell need to stop …. cause im tired of reading things when you cant spell…anyways back to the subject…thats very freakyy..it blew my ing away

  • When I first heard about this, I actually believed that there is such thing as a human-dog hybrid; so, I Googled “human dog hybrid” and found a few images. I clicked on the one that was the most accurate and I was directed to this web page. Once I got here, I downloaded the human-dog image onto my computer. Following this, I went into the folder that contained the downloaded image and right clicked properties. Once I clicked on the “Details” tab, I found out that this image was made on Adobe PhotoShop Elements 4.0 Macintosh Edition. I strongly believe that the artist used that program to compile human and dog images to make this piece of art. This photograph is not real; it is an ILLUSION (see top of page for details).
