VIDEO: Real dog meets sand dogs in Chichester

Romanian artist Marian has been delighting city shoppers with his sandy creations which look lifelike from a distance.

Marian, who speaks little English, has been showing off his skills to shoppers around the country in the past few weeks.

This visiting pooch seemed a little shy to approach the sandy hounds, which obviously gave him paws for thought...

Thankfully he decided to let sleeping dogs lie and beat a hasty retreat.
