Is it a dog, or a lion? | Pets

We first had these photos posted to our Snow Day(s) South Sound album, but decided they were so charming that they deserved a post of their own.

Well? Dog or lion?

Turns out the answer is "both."

Says Shari Crumbaker, who sent us the photos Monday evening:

"This is Rufus and Roxie 2 year old golden-doodles from Tacoma! Rufus the lion was trimmed by his groomer last year to be a lion for a skit children's church at Life Center Church!!! Here he is enjoying the new fallen snow and about to pounce on his sister Roxie! They are the proud pups of Ashley Tiffany of Tacoma WA."

Either way, we are in love with these charming beasts.

Happy snow day!
