Hey everyone,

Check out this article about Raccoon Dogs! They look like raccoons but they are really dogs. The ones at my hometown zoo are thought to be the only display available to the public in the United States. They are absolutely adorable!!! :luv:

They're quite easily obtainable over here;a friend offered me a pair for £300 (I'm not sure what that is in dollars!) but I had to say no as you need a special license in the GB to keep them.

Plus I have enough animals at the moment!
