Look at the shadows and direction... it's photoshopped.

You don't really see that many shadows, there is one to the right of the dog but I don't see any more.
Looking at the quality and logic of this picture it probably is photoshopped.

The dog is lit from the right (from the perspective of the person who took the picture) and his body is casting a shadow on the ground to the left of him.

The helo is being lit from above and to it's front, from the back of the photographer based on the shadow on the underside of the belly of the aircraft. If it shared the same light source as the dog it would not be lit so well on its right side (left to the photographer).

I didn't look that close on first pass Reaper but on second look you're right.  I was too busy looking for funny to be a critic :D

I'm only being a overly detail-oriented pain in the arse because I lacked the ability to think of anything funny!

Your right.
