It does have sort of have that rustic dachshund brownness to it.

When Hannah Murphy was out dining at New York restaurant, La Lanterna, her mum started giggling and told her to “take a look at that adorable dachshund, he’s sleeping.”

But instead of turning to see a cute dog on the floor, Hannah came face to face with a sweet, lovely, snoozing brown leather bag.

Just adorable.

I mean, we can see what she’s getting at.

That bag strap could easily be mistaken for a pair of paws, and the way the bag is slightly curled around the leg of the chair does definitely suggest sleepy sausage dog.

As it turns out, a lot of other people have also had the same predicament as Hannah’s mum.

It wasn’t long before the tweet went viral, leading to to tonnes of replies from users who had also mistaken casual accessories or common household items for small animals, or even children.

There was this guy who thought a brown sack was a dog sitting up on a bar stool.

This woman who thought a load of rubbish was a cute lab.

I did this once, smiling hard at a giant bag of yard waste because I thought it was a sweet slumpy old Golden Retriever.
