Dog noses are like fingerprints, in that no two are "identical". So as a keepsake, it's more unique than a photo. Kind of cool on your keychain but I don't know if I'd want to wear one, lol!

There is an article about Chilli over at the BBC News website-I take it that the poor choice of wording in the featured article here has more to do with a reporter not understanding the difference between the various phrases and not an attempt at a fakery...that being said, one article did mention that the keepers shown posing with Chilli are only about 5 feet tall so yes, he would appear to be even more abnormally large than he would be if he was standing beside your average farm hand at 6 feet tall!!
