Bristol-based photographer Peter Thorpe has a great little tradition that he started 20 years ago. For his annual holiday card, he transforms Raggle, his dog, into various animals. He started this tradition with Paddy, and now continues with Raggle.
Other photographers would often turn to Photoshop, but Peter uses real props instead. When the photos are finished, he sends these cards to his family, friends and clients.
Sadly, this awesome tradition is coming to an end as Raggle is growing older and weaker every day. This year’s card is going to be the last one before her retirement.

Truth hurts? Turkeys are loving animals and they like to be petted and scratched, like almost all other animals. They all deserve to live!!

It's adorable and he's not hurting the dog at all. People that claim it's animal cruelty, get a life!!!

I think this article has nothing to do with eating turkeys.......its dog pictures and a creative owner.

The only one that I don't like is the turkey caracter. It is time to start respecting all animal species. That's evolution.

Some sweet pictures, but portraying the dog in the light of traditionally abused creatures who are cooked, tethered, or trapped is not cute.
