Dog shaved to look like lion prompts 911 call

This funny story was just in the news.

Someone in Norfolk called 911 and reported seeing "a baby lion walking down Colley Avenue, possibility looking for food". The police immediately called the Virginia Zoo, but the zoo reported both of their lions were accounted for.

It turned out it was a 3-year-old labradoodle shaved to look like a lion.
Some photos,



Here is a video of this Labradoodle "disguised" as a baby lion,




The owner of the dog had created a Facebook page for him. You can find it here, there are a lot more better photos of this "lion".
