So your dog works as a model? Don't quit your day job

AMY Peller, a marketing consultant who lives in Hoboken, New Jersey, was in the flagship Banana Republic store in London last winter when she looked up and recognised the model whose picture greeted her.

"I think I gasped or screamed and said, 'That's my dog!' "

There was her white labradoodle, Benny Hana, pictured in the middle of a party of other dog and human models on a grand staircase.
