If you love cows but feel like a full sized one is impractical, you can always opt for a miniature version. Yes, you can own a pet mini cow! There are farms in the U.S. that specialize in breeding pet mini cows.



According to Lovable Little Ones, a cattle breeder in Colorado, mini cows are "exceptional pets that demonstrate a great deal of affection, are very social, and are easy to take care of."

"Miniature cattle are a great inexpensive way to teach your children responsibility, and some very useful agricultural fundamentals. Their small size makes miniature cattle easy and safe to work with for any enthusiast."


Unlike full-sized cows, miniature cows do not require expensive handling equipment.

Members of the St. Joseph High School cross-country team in California invited more than a dozen shelter dogs to accompany them on their morning run this week.

Each teammate was paired with a dog from the Santa Barbara County Animal Shelter before heading out for a long run as one big happy group.


"I am not sure who was more excited and having the most fun ... the dogs or the kids," coach Luis Escobar said. "Either way, it was a great time and I am sure we will do it again sometime soon."

Hopefully this becomes a regular thing, and that it inspires other schools to try it out, too!
