The ferret that thinks it's a dog

This is probably the lamest story of all time. Some people have a pet ferret. They take it for walks and it eats dog food. Therefore, it thinks it's a dog.

This picture is only a reenactment. The Web site wouldn't let me download the real picture becuase of something called a "copyright."

With its distinctive sleek white coat, tiny paws and cute pink nose there's no mistaking the fact that Harry is in fact a ferret.

But the confused rodent loves nothing more than doing doggy things.

He goes out for long walks on his leash, munches on dog food and snuggles up to family pet Sheba the German Shepherd.

The feisty furball is so convinced of his canine status that he even steals pet pooch Sheba's chew toys and eats his dinner from under his nose.

About the Bloggers

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
