I guess that email was so popular, it made it into the Urban Legends and Folklore section at about.com. Here's the article:

Re: Checkout this Dog

Wow, they did a great job on the PS'ing of the neo mastiff, but they messed up ALL the shadows. Too bad, could have been an awesome hoax! LOL

I wonder what the original pic was? Probably the two people walking two horses.

Re: Checkout this Dog

Actually it looks to me like the light/shadows are accurate, I can't find a flaw. But I agree that it was probably two horses...

Re: Checkout this Dog

The people who used to live across the street from my parents had an English Mastiff that was the biggest dog I have ever seen. He was not as big as the imaginary one in the pic, but the woman who owned him was kindof petite, so she probably could have saddled him and ridden him like a pony. lol
