In sheep news…
Flocks of lambs were shipped from the UK and Australia to Japan and sold as poodles. The scam was spotted after a leading Japanese actress said her ‘poodle’ didn’t bark and refused to eat dog food.
I find it amazing that someone can’t tell a poodle from a lamb.

update: sheep sold as poodles was a haux.
