— -- Move over, Brooklyn. It looks like Vancouver is home to the cutest hipster around.
Meet Toby, a 10-year-old Maltese who's got some serious style. He also has more than 86,000 Instagram followers who adore his trendy thick-rimmed glasses and perfectly accessorized bow ties.
“I put my sunglasses on Toby one day and noticed that he didn't mind them,” his owner, Joyce Chen, told ABC News. “I snapped a photo and shared it online and people seemed to love it. This is how Toby's ‘modeling’ career started.”
Since then, the adorable pup has gained notoriety for his perfectly posed photos.
“I try to caption my photos with a little humor and sarcasm and what I think Toby would say if he could speak,” said Chen.
She explained that her photogenic pooch, who goes by Toby LittleDude on social media, was “a natural in front of the camera.”
“Toby doesn't mind wearing the outfits or glasses,” she said. “It only takes me a few seconds to snap a few photos and then he gets a ton of treats. The key to our photo shoots is to always make it fun and rewarding.”
