Today in dogs that look like people: a pup that people seem to think – for better or pussy licking movies and videosfor worse – resembles Ivanka Trump.

As Cosmopolitan notes, Twitter user @witchpuppy first tweeted the photo back on March 16. In the days since, the dog in the photo – with its long white hair and ears pulled back into a ponytail and its studded collar – has drawn comparisons to Trump.

Sure, there is something similar in their hair styling and eye shape, but that's all there is to the resemblance. Still, once the internet makes a connection like that one, it's tough to un-see it.

Take, for example, the recent example of a dog that looked, to many online, exactly like actress Laura Dern of Big Little Lies.

Back when Dern Dog was pulling in a ton of retweets, we reached out to Dr. Philip Muskin, professor of psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center, who explained how the human brain's need to make quick assessments of our surroundings connects to something as silly as a dog with nice hair:

And because our brains are built to make these immediate, unconscious connections, we tend to land on the things we know best. We recognize elements of faces we know, even if every element isn't there. 

It's like caricature drawings, Muskin says. An artist need only hone in on a few defining features to make a recognizable portrait.

Which brings us back to Dern and Kimchee. We see the blonde coloring, the appearance of a side part, the partially hidden eye and our brains make the natural connection. This, coupled with the prompt to see Dern in this dog's face, makes for a strong, unshakeable perception.

Does the dog from @witchpuppy's photo actuallylook like Trump? Maybe not. It's fun to consider, though.
