With Season 5 slated for next Spring 2015, Game of Thrones fans everywhere are all in withdrawal. Have a laugh with this amusing snippet of Game of Thrones, completely re-enacted by a trio of leather-clad pugs. The owners, Philip Lauer and his wife, Sue, have been dressing up their dogs in various costumes since they were puppies.
TV streaming service, blinkbox, reached out to the couple and asked them about creating a mini-movie. Sue, a professional photographer and designer, jumped at the prospect and spent weeks creating the costumes and props. The final debut of the mini-movie took months of preparation, and the results are nothing short of epic.
The beautiful costumes of Game of Thrones were given an Emmy award for “Outstanding Costumes For A Series” this year. The pugs, named Roxy, Blue and Bono sported all-leather looks and brought the Game of Thrones cast to life.
Imitating Jon Snow, Ned Stark, Daenerys Targaryen and other iconic Game of Thrones characters, the level of care and detail was surprising for a doggie wardrobe. Tyrion Lannister’s costume looked oh-so realistic, featuring two tones of red and black leather, floral embroidery and lace-up detailing at the chest. Hilarious and adorable, this clip has reached over 2 million views on Youtube alone. Watch the clip, The Pugs of Westeros here.
