“Like father, like son.” “Like mother, like daughter.”

We’ve heard this phrase many times when a parent and their child look or act alike. A “splitting image,” as they call it. Parents take it as a compliment (not sure with the kids, though) and are proud of any similarity they have with their child.

But this does not apply to humans only. Our dear pets have this proud moment, too.

While some animals crossbreed, their little ones will somehow look like them one way or another. It’s a bonus if they also act like them – their mannerisms and all. And when they do, they’re just oozing with cuteness!

Here are some of the cutest dog parents with their mini-me’s, and you can be the judge of how alike they really are.
