Dog blends into carpet in latest photo to baffle the internet.. but can you spot the pooch?
THESE are the latest confusing shots to take the internet by storm, and they show a well-camouflaged dog who blends perfectly into the living room carpet.
The hilarious snaps show one family's grey rug, which is the resting spot of choice for Stanley, a beloved pet poodle whose owners can't stop tripping over him.
Mum-of-five Deb Lythgoe only realised the striking resemblance her poodle bore to her new rug after she put it down in the front room.
The seven-year-old pooch is tricky to spot as he basks on the rug, which lies in Deb and fiancée Pete Chisnall's home in Wigan.
Stanley loves the slate grey rug, and spends most of his time lounging on it, which causes serious confusion in the family home.
Mum Deb said: "We bought the rug a few months ago and put it in the front room. Stanley straight away liked it and started laying on it.
"We noticed he matched the colour but we didn’t think anything of it at first. However suddenly we kept finding ourselves tripping up over him.
"That’s when we realised that when he is lay on there you actually can’t see him. Thankfully we’ve not had any serious accidents though."
Stanley's owners snapped some hilarious shots of the loveable pooch with her six-month-old son, Joseph.
She said: "It made us laugh so we took a picture of it and shared it with my friends. We didn’t really realise just how invisible he is.
"But everyone who saw it couldn’t believe it. It took lots of people ages to realise there was even a dog in the picture. Everyone was amazed by how much he blended in. Everyone loved it."
The full-time mum, whose family also includes Kayleigh, 14, Ryan, 11, Ava, eight, and 16-month-old Aeryn, have had Stanley since he was puppy.
But his viral fame has led to his family seeing him in a whole new light.
Deb added: "While he keeps finding himself in trouble with the rug, it’s not his fault and it is the only problem he causes - he’s actually very well behaved."
