The talents of a metro couple’s rescue dog and her owner are worth a thousand words.

Ben and Alice Decker adopted Belle, a pit bull mix, several years ago.

“When we picked her up, she was acting crazy. We just thought this will be a fun adventure,” said Ben.

Soon, the couple realized Belle’s unique talent.

“One day I was kind of messing around and stuck a ball bap on her and she immediately just froze,” said Alice.

Alice is a photographer and captured the moment. She then did her best to match Belle’s pose with the same hat for another photo.

“When I posted that to Facebook, I just had so many people comment and like it,” said Alice, about the two pictures side by side.

Eventually, more twin pics followed.

“There are days we have to wrestle to get her into the poses we need,” said Alice.

The two have paid homage to the Olympics, Halloween, and yoga.

Before the presidential election, Belle was posed as Donald Trump and Alice became Hillary Clinton.

“I try to keep them somewhat relevant to the time,” added Alice, who posts the pictures on her Instagram account every Friday using the #furrytwinFriday

Just recently, the Deckers celebrated more than a year’s worth of bubbly moments.

A Christmas calendar is due out this year.

“We just love her and she is part of our family,” said Alice.
