    Anyone who originally believed that to be a lion doesn't deserve a refund.
    Doesn't even look like a lion.

    It took the dog to bark for them to realise it was a dog!?
    Have they ever seen a lion in their life? Surely there's TV and Internet in China, it looks nothing like a Lion :confused:

    Look at you with your fancy TV and internet, you do realize that the average Chinese person is slightly poorer than you. (actually a lot poorer than you )
    The people that put your fancy phone together get approx $1.50 an hour so that wouldn't leave a lot of spare cash at the end of the week to bring the family on safari.

    Sure Snoop Dogg has been pretending to a dog for years, when in fact he is actually Snoop Lion.

    Rubbing my hands in glee in anticipation of the puns. I tried to come up with one but sadly, I am terrible at these things. Oooh! Oooh!- The zookeepers barked up the wrong tree.

    I know it's really lame but it's all I have :(.

    Tibetan Mastiff, this dog is massive easily 200lbs + with a main just like a lion but to mix the two up you'd want to be some doughnut.

    That never gets old, the picture is brilliant, looks nothing like a dog!

    First time hearing about the weasel war dance though. I wonder is that what gave them away as weasels and not dogs.

    Sure it wasn't too long ago rich not-too-intelligent Japanese women were sold well shorn sheep instead of pure-bred poodles. Could even say they were fleeced


    i'll see myself out
