Is your poodle really a sheep?

That's what many Japanese people are discovering. Maiko Kawakami, a Japanese actress, appeared on a talk show and brought pictures of her new "poodle". She said that she didn't understand why it didn't bark or eat dog food. That's when she found out it wasn't a poodle, or even a dog. She had spent over $1200 (US) on a sheep. After her TV appearance many other victims began contacting the police because they too had purchased sheep and not poodles. Japanese police claim that poodles are rare in Japan, but sheep don't even look like dogs!

This is a poodle...



...and this is a sheep

I've always said those damn sheep look too much like unshorned poodles. That's crazy!

I can't imagine paying that much for a real dog!
