"Tricksters in Argentina are passing off 'roided-up ferrets as dogs
And now for a twist on the classic Chihuahua/rat urban legend ... Vendors at the largest flea market in La Salada, Argentina, are apparently subjecting ferrets to steroids (and strange grooming regimens) to make them resemble pedigree toy poodles, then selling them to unsuspecting tourists. Multiple sources have confirmed being taken by this scam, which is simply mind-boggling — take one look at the malicious rodent glimmer in that thing's eyes and tell us you'd mistake it for a poodle. The two people who have come forward have not filed complaints, because sadly, most black markets are sorely lacking in customer service desks."
I saw that....GAWD, dont mention a Ferret......sis had them when we were kids, and I am so allergic I cant even be in the same house as one....the slightest scrach from thier claws will raise a welt that takes a week to heal, and the sneezing plus burning eyes just about takes the forehead off....
Cute little guys, though. I just cant be around them....and that chirping and backwards run they do---WHAT is up with that ??
