Tiger wearing a slice of ham like a veil.

(CNN) - Most dogs love to eat.

But one dog loves to wear her food on her head.

It's all for a blog.

If the way to a dog's heart is through its stomach, then why is one dog wearing her food on her head? Try doing that to most dogs and it won't work.

But Tiger is not most dogs. She's the subject of a blog called Food on My Dog. From a sunny side up egg to a taco to a chocolate glazed donut with sprinkles, Tiger stares ahead impassively, whether it be Spam in a can or pepperoni on her snout.

Tiger doesn't get crabby even when she's crowned with king crab legs. Her owner demonstrated his technique with leaves of lettuce.

Okay, lettuce is probably less tempting than a hot dog, but still, Tiger's restraint is impressive.

The most commonly asked question seems to be, "Does Tiger get to eat what's on her head after?"

The answer is yes when it's something dog friendly, a replacement treat if it's not.

Tiger wears ham like a veil, though we discovered ham, even on a dog named Sushi, is relatively easy to slip onto an unsuspecting head.

But Tiger even wears pizza as if it's a beret. When we tried pizza on Sushi, she tried to lick it, and tolerated wearing it only reluctantly.

The Food on My Dog blog reminds us of another internet phenomenon from last year; the dog that balanced treats on his head.

We saw him balance as many as 36 treats, barely moving a muscle until he got the order to release.

And no, he wasn't allowed to eat them all.

He even balanced them while on his back.

It sort of makes the latest craze, called breading cats, seem like child's play. Multigrain and wheat really seem to bring out their eyes.

What makes this dog so irresistible is her ability to resist.
