Your dog is adorable.
Speaking of maybe not so adorable animals, today in my forensics class (the one with the teacher who has three snakes, a rat, a turtle, a tarantula, two axolotls, a tank of betta fish, and more) someone tried to hold the tarantula for a bet and things got kinda interesting.
Now, this guy is a big, tough football player. He got the tarantula in his hand fine, and he thought he'd won the bet easy. But when he tried to put it back in its tank it just stayed on his hand. So his buddy, also a big, tough football player, decided he'd do it. He had a glove on his hand, so he figured he'd be fine, but when he got it to move onto his hand, it kept going. It ran up his arm and onto his back and this big, tough football player started shrieking and jumping around. At this point it was relative chaos in the classroom, and people also had out two of the snakes and the rat, so the biggest and toughest football player of them all was in the corner because he nopes out at the sight of basically all of the animals. The teacher came over, trying to calm the tarantula kid down, and got the tarantula back in its tank.
It was quite exciting.
