    we can't get any that a really really little though - like the teeny teacup size ones, have looked

    I know. :( Comebackgirl and I were only talking about this a few weeks ago because there was a photo of a TINY baby one on Facebook....soooo cute....so I did some research too and saw that we can't get them here. Those teacup ones are apparently pretty unhealthy though....bad breeding....so a few websites said anyway.

    A beautiful video,heart warming to watch the connection.He has clearly treated them with a great deal of love and respect to have them all go to him like the way they did.

    How adorable is that video? I definitely feel the love. :D
    A dog you would like is a leonberger .

    I've seen leonbergers, a friend went through the work of buying a puppy, and they're like big teddy bears! I happen to love Newfoundland dogs (and always wanted one), and these dogs are the combination of newfies, St. Bernards and I think Burmese mountain dogs. Bred to look like a lion. But there's no way I could ever or would ever have the money to spend what they demand for the raw meat diet they need. They're definitely beautiful and very huggable though. ;)

    A dog you would like is a leonberger . It is a German dog that resembles a lion. I own 3 of them.
    They are loyal, intelligent, and confident in all situations. My 2 males weigh around 170 lbs.
    One male gives wagon rides for children. The downside is feeding them costs me about $600 per month.
    I spoil them with chickens , eggs , roast beef , salmon, veggies, goat milk and dog food of course.
    You would love them, but where you live it is too hot for them.

    I googled the name.I recognised the breed as I see a lady around here walking one they are beautiful dogs,very gentle.

    How cool would it be if lions stayed about that size....about dog size....and didn't have ridiculously sharp teeth/claws and we could have them as pets. My Boxer sits on my lap and hugs me like that and nuzzles against my neck etc. Having a pet lion would be cool us fuck! :mrgreen:

    Wow! I looked up some pic on line. They're huge! And you say you have three!?!? Do they have their own house or a barn? :D

    By they way, I love that goat photo of yours.
    They have a pet door from my house to about 5 fenced acres. They come in and out at their leisure.
    All 3 love to watch the animal channel for a full hour at times. They sit on the couch and are fully focused on the tv. The picture is of a 4 horned Jacob Ram. He is aggressive towards strangers. Never turn your back to him.

    I knew a goat like that. I passed him on my walk to classes everyday when I was in school at Chico. We had an understanding- I kept my distance, he nodded hello.

    My favorite "pet" was a boar named Wendell. Wendell was wild and scary as hell when we met but became good pals. First a scratching stick, then a twig, then finger scratches and one day a hop over the fence and a pat on the head. Good old friend Wendell.

  • I love lions... I was just watching videos the other day of lions talking like saying "allah" "I love you" "Where are you".
