A creative dog groomer who went viral for his giraffe creation has once again blown social media users away – this time transforming a goldendoodle pup into a leopard using pet-safe dye.

Gabriel Feitosa, 29, from California, US, is known for his creative and unique grooms, which have turned dogs into giraffes, television characters and even made some glow-in-the-dark with a special dye.

Gabriel's latest artwork has been turning LV, a 1-year-old goldendoodle, into a leopard.

"It took about four and a half hours – first I trimmed the hair short to give that classic slim leopard silhouette, then I applied the black and custom brown dye," Gabriel said.

"The puffs of hair on top of its head is an interpretation of cat ears, since the end result is still on a dog after all.

"LV and the owner even flew across the country from Orlando to San Diego for this haircut!"

Gabriel shared the video of his latest artwork on TikTok, where he captioned the post: "LV flew across the country to be transformed into a #leopard! It was so much fun!"

The clip shows Gabriel and the fluffy cream dog in the groom room before he uses his cutting and dyeing skills to turn the pooch into a leopard.

The popular post racked up 276,000 views, 24,000 likes and hundreds of comments.

“Alright, I’ll be the first to say it in the comments: good god sir you are handsome! Makes me wish I was a dog!” added one user.

“These always make me smile! Thank you!” said one fan.

Gabriel is excited to do more in the future and is hoping to complete a tiger design on a larger pooch.

He added: "Every dog inspires me in a different way, I felt that the leopard design was perfect for LV because it’s fashionable and it reinforces his wild and playful personality.

"But for 2022, a tiger design on a big dog would be fun to celebrate the year of the tiger!"

Gabriel previously made headlines thanks to his incredible giraffe design.
