We’re convinced the groomer gave us back the wrong dog – people are saying it looks like she’s changed gender
A COUPLE were left convinced the groomer had given them the wrong dog back after their pooch’s hilarious transformation.
The animal lovers didn’t even recognise their beloved pup Buttercup after they collected her from her pamper session.
They had dropped off their adorable caramel furball to get her thick coat of fur tamed and her long fringe trimmed.
Pet owner @peanutgang17 shared a TikTok showing Buttercup prepping for her glam time and excitedly bouncing around.
The Shih Tzu and Bischon mix sported a lustrous layer of fur as well as a thick fluffy tail, which she wags enthusiastically in the clip.
But the couple could hardly believe their eyes when she picked up her pooch – that barely looked like Buttercup.
The clip then shows the pup with a completely shaven coat, exposing her white-coloured skin.
Although she definitely looked tidier, the bemused-looking dog donning a pink bow on her head looked unrecognisable.
The owners captioned the clip: “I think the groomer gave us the wrong dog.”
Social media users were just as stunned by the transformation – with some even pointing out it looked as though Buttercup had changed gender.
Many suggested she looked much more brawnier in the before shot, whereas she appeared prim and petite in the second.
The bow accessory also inevitably amped up the feminity, as well as making Buttercup look even more different.
The dog, who the couple adoringly refer to as their “teddy bear”, caused a stir online with her incredible makeover.
The short clip debuting her new look racked up a whopping 760,000 views as well as nearly 40,000 likes.
TikTok users took to the comment section to share their opinions of the groomer’s work.
One wrote: “It changed from boy to girl!”
Another said: “Omg she even changed colour.”
A third joked: “Buttercup gave up drinking and smoking 50 a day and it has transformed her so much.”
A fourth said: “She DID give you the wrong dog!”
And a fourth chimed in: “Mine also looked totally different when we picked him up… we had to do identity checks.”
