Much as I love this interspecies friendship, it's a really bad idea to physically interact with seals. They have a tremendous bite and will defend themselves, even as pups, if they feel threatened. Please, no hate for this opinion! I'm just concerned for everyone's well being, including the seal's.

Meet Ralph. He's the dark one. He humps every other dog he sees during his walk. Ralph is 1/11 (but he did get a hug).

My husband and I were at a B&B where we spent a good part of the day playing with the little goats that lived there. That night, we were hanging out in our room, looking at Facebook, and this photo came up in my feed. I looked at my photos from the day, and same barn, same fence, same goat playground equipment, same goat! Of all the goats in the world, I see a goat on Facebook that I had met that day.

Why does this comment have 9 downvotes? They're just asking what the dog is supposed to be highlighting. I'm curious myself.

The order of the photos changes as people vote them up and down. When the dust settles, you can probably stop on page 8 and not miss anything...
Load More Replies...I was wondering if number #7 is real though or is it photoshopped? What kind of animal is that if it is not photo shopped?
