FAKING IT? HARDLY
A few designers are in the doghouse for using real animal fur on clothing after vowing not to use anything but faux fur.
A Humane Society report targets Tommy Hilfiger, Baby Phat and Sean John products, which were found to have wild raccoon and domestic dog fur, including a German
shepherd-collie mix.
It seems designers outsource their manufacturing to China, where fur is cheap and animal laws less stringent, so often many garments are mislabeled. As a result, some retailers end up selling those with real fur as faux.
Sounds like the consumer is getting skinned no matter what their animal-rights stance is.

Love the collie in the picture-is the name Taffy-I've been looking for her for some time?
Getting back to fake or fluke-different cultures have different priorities-animals do have rights but some of these 'people' carry it tooooo extremes-people also have a right to buy and sell what they want as long as the law allows-what happened to 'human rights' in the U.S.A
They need to ease up and have a few 'Grasshoppers' (drink) or are they anti-party 'animals' tooooooooooo?
I don't know what she just said but that dog looks comfortable..to wear I mean. Doggie ear muffs and and fur lined collars. That's what I'm saying.
