My parents got a white dog that looks a lot like a Pakistani Gull Dog some time ago. Don't look it up without understanding this is a dog commonly used for fighting in India and Pakistan (dog fights are illegal, they simply don't have the police forces to reinforce the law in a lot of places). They are albinos (most often deaf or blind, or both, to enhance making them aggressive) with short, white hair. They have ears that are very expressive. He's a medium-big dog. When he's not having traumatic issues, he's a good dog. He has only three legs, due to having been hit by a car, among other things that happened before my parents got him. On top of being almost solidly white, these dogs have blue eyes due to the albinism, and black spots on their nose, ears, and maybe here and there elsewise.
Promise I'm getting to the point, I wanted to give you a good idea of what he looks like without making you search up pictures and potentially seeing really graphic images, which are easy for this breed (they're not common here in the USA, and are accidentally created since there is no common way to breed them like Kennel Club-type standards).
Last month, they got a couple of Nigerian dwarf goat kids. One is black, one is white. The black one has white-blue eyes like the dog; the other is the same short, white hair.
They were understandably upset. Freshly weened, and now with strange people.
But then they saw Casper, the white dog.
They became convinced he was a goat.
He became convinced they were the weirdest fucking dogs he'd ever seen.
They kept leaning up on him like he was their moms, and he was going WHAT NO. I'm proud of the guy, he almost had a trauma episode, but kept himself in check. (Having been at the end of such an episode, and having lasting damage from it, it's not fun.)
Now, they are still convinced he's a goat, he's still convinced they're weird dogs, but now they race around the yard together, playing, alongside the 5-pound chihuahua, who is convinced he's the same size as them.
They were bought to eventually become companions to my parents' mini-horse, who has been depressed since losing her bestie donkey, they're just a little too little yet. They will get to be about Casper's size, due to being dwarf goats.
It's very cute, and so this picture makes complete sense: The brown goats are dogs to the brown dog; the brown dog is a goat to the brown goats.
