Fleece Dog was the brainchild of Japanese artist Nobuko Nagakubo aka Sinco, who was inspired to produce the first miniature canine by her own Petite Basset Griffon Vendeen - CJ. Since then she has gone on to make many more of the miniature models including working for celebrities such as Paul O’ Grady. Sinco now teaches people from across the country how to produce their own miniature versions of their pets from the moulted hair they collect from their homes and has been inundated with willing students who want to make lifelike miniature replicas of their own dogs.

Speaking about the success of her artworks, Sinco said: “I went on national TV in Japan with the idea of using combed –off dog her and people went mad for it. Japanese people really love their dogs. I think they like making models so people can admire their work and go ‘awwww’ over their pet.”
“I get many emails from people wanting to show me the models they have made of their own dogs. One man has made hundreds of them”.
