Ever wondered what goes on behind those picture perfect ads? I'm here to debunk the so-called glamorous lifestyle of a four-legged supermodel. .

. {Hi, I'm Phoebe. I'm a supermodel.}

.

MYTH: Modeling is easy.
FACT: Modeling is hard work! Striking a pose when you're not in the mood is no easy feat. Plus, those flood lights are just too hot when you're wearing fur.

.

{Taking cue from renowned dog behaviorist, Fred Alimusa.}

.

{Sigh. Modeling is tiring.}

.

MYTH: Models take bribes.

FACT: Weeelllll... maybe sometimes... but only if the price is right! ;) The modeling industry is a dog eat dog world. You gotta do what you gotta do. Besides, I'm a model, not a saint.

.

{Surprise!}

{Oh wow, vanilla dog biscuits topped with ice cream. My favorite!}

.

MYTH: Models starve to be skinny.
FACT: Whoever lives by that rule obviously haven't tasted the rich, creamy, buttery bliss called Häagen-Dazs Caramel Biscuit and Cream. Diet? No-doggone-way!
.

{Aaah, the perks of being a model...}

.

MYTH: Models are spoiled brats.

FACT: If you didn't get your ice cream fix, wouldn't you be cranky too?

.

{My agent booking me more modeling jobs.

Heeeey, quit texting. I WANT MORE ICE CREAM!}
.

BONUS: Never before seen
