Need a unique gift for the pet lover in your life? This is a great and hilarious idea. Send in a photo of your pet to Hot Digital Dog, and they will send you a very fancy portrait of your little buddy in formal Victorian wardrobe and sepia tones. They claim they will work diligently in presenting your Dear Fluffy at his/her “Hollywood best”. Prices range from $20 to $100, depending on size and if you have more than one pet for the photo. If you wan’t to give it as a gift, but don’t have a photo, you can even order a gift certificate for the recipient to then order their own custom vintage pet potrait online.

The show will trace the genetic journey from wolf to dog, taking viewers back 100,000 years to meet the “mother of all dogs.” It’s no accident that dogs evolved this way, as [...]
