Yahoo News West Country couple realise dog looks like Will Ferrell after viral TikTok video
A West Country couple realised their dog bears an uncanny resemblance to a huge star after they uploaded a video of their pup to TikTok.
Daisy Goord, 28, and Ben Strudwick, 29, were told their three-year-old Poochon Peach, looked like Hollywood actor Will Ferrell -and was dubbed "Will Furrell"
The pair have had Peach since she was eight weeks old but never noticed the resemblance, not until last month when Daisy posted a video of Peach on the social media app. The video quickly became viral with thousands comparing the pooch to the 56-year-old American actor Will Ferrell.

One TikTok user said: "That dog looks more like Will Ferrell than Will Ferrell". Another added: "Oh dear god, it’s the spitting image!"
Daisy, a hairdresser in Plymouth, Devon, said: "The Will Ferrell comments started coming in thick and fast as soon as we posted the video. We realised it wasn't just one person's opinion, but thousands saw the resemblance instantly.
"People find it hilarious and want us to get her an elf costume as soon as possible! We love how much it's made everyone laugh and how people have even given her the nickname 'Will Furrell.'"
And Peach isn't the only Plymouth dog to look like a celebrity. Wilfred, a three year old Cocker Spaniel, has been likened to Harry Styles.
Known affectionately by his human pals as 'Mr Steal your girl', Wilfred bears a striking resemblance to 2020's GQ stylish man of the year and has a huge portfolio of photogenic snapshots.
Ellen Rose, Wilfred's doting owner, says she made her beloved dog his own Instagram account as he "would make a great model" and loves the camera.
