It’s not often that we envy a dog because of its coat, but the Afghan Hound Tea is no ordinary dog.

The five-year-old Sydney dog recently retired from show performances and became a viral sensation thanks to a photo of her lying on a bench.
Tea’s owner Luke Kavanagh says her long, dark fur covers her perfectly and the attention came as a surprise, but he understands the excitement surrounding his furry friend.
“Even our weekend walks attract a lot of people. She acts like she doesn’t need the attention, but she definitely loves it, just like any supermodel,” he said NewsLocal.
Luke admits that he retired Tea so he could spend more time with his family.
Although her fame has increased rapidly and she is receiving more and more requests, Tea is reportedly enjoying her retirement and is unlikely to return to the show circuit.
“On show day she is the purest Afghan Hound, she is dignified, aloof and certainly shows a distinct wildness. At home she is a real character and is really enjoying her retirement,” says Luke. “Whether she is naked or dressed in the finest silk dress, Tea will always be my queen.”
