Adolf, the dog that looks like Hitler

A woman thought her five new puppies were gorgeous - until people said one looked just like Hitler.

After the jokes about the eight-week-old chihuahua puppy's black slanting "fringe" and tiny moustache, Claire Walsh now even calls him Adolf.

The hairdresser said: "I put photos of them on Facebook, and some of my colleagues and other people started commenting about him.

"Everyone says he resembles an infamous World War Two leader.

"He looks like he's got a side parting, and there is a little mark on his nose which has gone black."

Mrs Walsh, from Gorseinon, Swansea, added: "We have called him Adolf - although, obviously, it is just tongue-in-cheek.

"We don't have any time for what Hitler stands for, but we can see there is a resemblance."

The family are now looking for new homes for Adolf and his siblings - although Claire and husband Niall's son Zak, 11, has already grown attached to the puppy.

"Zak loves him," said Mrs Walsh. "He is the cheekiest in the litter, and is full of character. One of the pubs has already gone, but we are still looking to find homes for the others.

"I bred the puppies myself, and have been looking to sell them."

The dog lives just four miles from a house that caused an intenet sensation for looking like Hitler.

The end property on a terrace in Port Tennant went viral after comedian Jimmy Carr retweeted a photo of the building.

The lintel above the door echoes the toothbrush moustache of the Nazi dictator and the black sloping roof resembles his hair.
