Do you think you look like your dog? It might not just be you — in fact, a study by Sadahiko Nakajima, a psychologist at Kwansei Gakuin University in Japan, found that people were surprisingly accurate when matching pictures of dogs with their owners. And they could do it based on facial features alone.

In honor of National Look Alike Day, we asked our readers to submit photos where the resemblance is uncanny. Check out the photos below!
