One person's pet has left internet users stunned after they realised he looked identical to the 73-year-old British billionaire Richard Branson.
The canine has captured the heart's of thousands as one person posted him on Reddit, writing: "My friend's dog - he has a hairy wise old man's face".

One user said: "Who are we kidding? It looks like Richard Branson, CEO of Virgin."
Is it true dogs look like their owners?
According to research by Michael Roy at the University of California, San Diego, dog owners tend to go for dogs who have similar features to them.
The psychologist put his idea to the test by going to three nearby dog parks, he photographed the pooches and the owners separately, and then asked a group of participants to try to match them up. Despite no additional cues, he found that they were able to work out .
And the test has been repeated many times since with the same results.
According to the research, owners with long hair tend to go for dogs with long, droopy ears and even go for similar eye shapes.
It honestly looks exactly like Richard Branson - I see no difference between them, at all, whatsoever," another commented.
