THE PADDOCK — Move over dogs: the most adorable and hilarious animal playing with a squeaky toy is now a horse.
You read that right. All you weimaraners, beagles, pit bulls, collies, shepherds, mutts, and canines of all kinds, please step to the back of the line, and behold your new squeaky toy overlord, Kruzah the horse.
In the video (that can be viewed by clicking here), it takes Kruzah only a few moments to realize that once the squeaky chook (Australian slang for chicken) is in its mouth, all it has to do is chomp down to produce a new and delightful noise.
Pretty soon the frisky filly (I don’t know if it’s really a filly, but alliteration is fun) is full on head banging with that squeaky toy, rocking out like there’s no tomorrow.
Somehow, the more violent the head banging, and the more the squeaky chicken sounds like it’s dying, the funnier the whole thing gets. However, I hope Kruzah’s humans can eventually get that toy away from the horse. I mean, hearing a car alarm blare for hours at 2 a.m. is one thing, but that full-speed, squeaky toy noise at 2 a.m. would be quite another.
