Genuine photo, taken on an August evening when it wasn't cold. Note there is no steam above the surface of the hot tub... spooky.

Should your dog be drinking?

She had finished hers and was after another one.

(The hot tub was delivered that afternoon, so they were christening it - but got unexpected company!)

The dog wasn't smoking either - nor anyone else.

Not even crack? That dog looks a bit "clumsy" and overweight.

Lol, no, nor was her name Rob.

(She was a very hairy dog and not actually overweight at all).

Sadly, she is no longer alive. :(

couple of ways this can be done

1. lit piece of paper - person walks across the room with it left to right, second person takes the picture while the smoke is still in the air

2. person behind the dog takes a few of whiffs of a cig blows into a balloon - let go of the balloon, cig smoke discharges from the balloon, take the picture

Sorry, neither of those applied - I took this photo in my (old) back garden the day the hot tub was delivered. It was a warm August evening and nobody was smoking, nobody lit any paper. It is a genuine untouched photo.

The photo before this one (in the series I snapped at the time) shows the start of the apparition, the ones following this one show nothing. I didn't see it (nor did anyone else) until we looked at the photos the next day.

As I said, very spooky and strange.

Are you absolutely sure about that? If you zoom in, there's something suspiciously like a cigarette sticking out from the dog just above the outstretched arm of the guy with the Canadian Beer.....not saying the dog's smoking of course!:)

No, it's one of the controls for the jets - there are 6 of them around the top of the hot tub - you can see the control in the photo that was taken as it was being delivered (attached). Neither of the two people in the hot tub smoke either.

Had they been eating beans?
