welcome to the world of amazing animal
pets
and
enter oh
boy
no
no no
way definitely not what are you doing
Henry looking for my ideal pet pet but
you couldn't get any of those tell me
about it have you seen the price of
llamas these days but what's wrong with
a pet like a dog or a
cat I want something interesting that's
why I'm using this Pet Service to help
me find my ideal Companion Animal
ooh a boa
constrictor well I guess you could
cuddle one but it'd probably be the last
thing you did oh any suggestions then I
suggest you think about why you want a
pet before you rush into choosing
one most people have pets to keep them
company around the house that's why
they're called domestic animals oh
right yeah like a giraffe he'd be great
around the kitchen for reaching the top
shelf Henry you'd never fit him in your
house you need something
smaller like a
rabbit how
about a
hippo have you been listening to a cute
chimp or even a shark cool if it's fish
you want you'd be better off with
goldfish sure they could keep the cat
company keep it well fed more like there
really are a lot of things you don't get
About Pets aren't there I am trying you
can say that again I am hey
get
Henry if you're going to get a pet and
maybe you should find one that you know
how to take care of like a dog a dog but
Dogs
they need exercise grooming they chew
the furniture
and a isn't he cute maybe a dog wouldn't
be so bad well they are called man's
best friend uh in case you hadn't
noticed I'm a lizard okay Henry but dogs
are normally really friendly and very
loyal
and there are hundreds of different
types to choose
from H too
big too
small okay for polishing the
car I don't think so and what is that
it's called a py ooh okay could number
six turn around
please cool a reversible
dog ah now that's more like a
have you found one you
like whoa Henry that's a wolf so let me
explain something to you Henry wolves
may be the ancestors of domestic dogs
but they aren't pets yeah they wouldn't
be too popular with the neighbors making
that noise all the time that noise keeps
the family bond strong between all the
members of the wolf pack packs can have
more than 30 wolves all dependent on one
dominant adult to look after them that's
why he's called the leader of the pack v
v domestic dogs also need a pack leader
to keep them under control but instead
of another dog they look to their human
owners but there are lots of other ways
wolves and dogs are similar a game of
fetch is really your dog's way of
proving that it can bring food back to
the pack just like a wolf in the wild
would have to shouldn't he be bringing
back cans from the store instead of
sticks Henry thousands of years of
breeding may have produced sizes and
shapes of dog but it hasn't changed dog
behavior very much all dogs rear their
young pretty much the same way the
puppies Play and Learn the same they
even run around in pass the same but at
the end of the day they're still
domestic
animals these guys don't look too
housebroken no these are wild African
hunting dog pups there can be up to 19
pups in a litter wow that's a lot of
mouths to feed it's sure sure is and
that's why in a hunting dog pack only
one female breeds at a time that way all
the other pack members have plenty of
time to help look after the puppies if
your pet dog has pups then that's
exactly what you'd have to do even with
just one dog there's still lots to do
you have to bathe it exercise it pay the
vet bills you know maybe a dog wouldn't
be such a good idea after
Hamsters
all Henry it's it's time for your
report Henry it's time for your special
report what now yes Henry now oh you are
ready aren't you uh of course I
am what was it about again you're
supposed to be telling us all about why
hamsters are so
popular oh
right here
goes uh the Golden Hamster may only be a
squashy little rodent but it's one of
the most popular pets around there must
be millions of hamsters in homes all
over the world how am I doing so far
very impressive Henry you've been
studying for once oh yeah sure I
have anyway the reason hamsters are so
popular is because not long ago they
saved the world Henry no yes
to cut a long story short too late it
all started when scientists in the
desert discovered two hamsters they took
them back to the big city soon the
hamsters started having babies lots of
babies and then their babies had babies
it was baby City all that crying
throwing food and dirty Henry apart from
having babies the hamsters like running
in circles round and round like a broken
record the scientists saw this and had
an idea of how to pay for all the
hamster food and little hamster diapers
they built exercise wheels and harnessed
hamster power one hamster could only
make enough power to run the tiny little
light in the refrigerator but thousands
of hamsters ran around enough to power
the whole refrigerator the reclining
sunbed the hot dog Factory and the
entire town of yazu Kentucky they had so
much more energy than they needed to run
the exercise wheels that they burrowed
down into the center of the earth and
started running around like maniacs the
Earth became a humongous exercise wheel
until things started flying off like
cars and uh rhinos and stuff the
hamsters could save the planet they
stuck everything to the ground with glue
slowed down to a brisk walk and switched
to decaf the Earth slowed down and
everyone was saved hooray and that's why
hamsters are so popular they save the
Earth and that's straight from the
lizard's mouth so did I get an A no that
was so bad you get to stay behind after
Golden Hamster
the show didn't I I even get one bit
right yeah but only one rats you were
right about them all coming from one
family huh golden hamsters were first
discovered in the Syrian desert in 1839
but no more was seen until a 100 years
later when a single adult and her babies
were found and taken back to study at a
university the hamsters studied smart
Roden very funny Henry now one of the
first things scientists noticed was how
fast hamsters breathe they can give
birth when they're only 16 days old
excuse me but that's amazing isn't it
pretty soon the scientists had more
hamsters than they needed so they
started to give them away as pets and in
no time there were pet golden hamsters
all over the world now can you think why
they became such popular pets sure cuz
they come with all these neat toys no
Henry toys are each sold separately but
they're important for keeping a pet
hamster active and happy go on then tell
me why hamsters are so popular well
Henry it's basically because they're so
cute a they still store food in their
little chubby cheek pouches even though
they don't need to when their owners are
there to feed them hey you never know
when you're going to need a snack
Big Cats
all
what's the matter Henry you look
exhausted I hate to say it but I think
you were right about that wolf it just
took me for a walk you mean you took it
for a walk I know what I mean oh dear
what about a cat instead they're popular
pets you know the ancient Egyptians used
to worship them right now I'll worship
anything that doesn't eat my
sofa okay then bring on the cats
oh wants to play hide and seek huh I can
do that Henry where are you
going say where'd he go I like that one
oh well how about a short hair with this
Decor I'd never find him ah here we
go now he'd kick the wolf from the door
no Henry you can't be serious sure why
not well if you don't know why don't you
try petting him and then let me know how
many legs you've got
left W but these guys look so cuddly
just like house cats only a bit bigger a
bit bigger Henry big cats like lions can
weigh more than two men and their dog
yeah I know but they seem so peaceful
and quiet
ah look they even play like cats
sure all cats play when they're young
it's practice for when they're adults
and need to be skilled at both fighting
and hunting except where domestic cats
hunt mice Lions have to be strong and
feisty enough to bring down buffalo and
zebra okay so walking them in the park
might be a bit dangerous but they make
great guard pets big cats are not pets
wow they sure aren getting mean but
don't some people keep them as pets yes
and some people realize their mistake
too late and worse than that end up
having to release them you mean there
are big cats roaming around the
countryside so they say Henry yikes like
up the
tuna uh am I supposed to be scared it is
a wild cat Henry although it was cats
like these that were the first to Be
Tamed by people thousands of years ago
maybe I'll just tame me a wild cat then
not easily you won't there are plenty of
people who will tell you that even house
cats can't ever be fully tamed that
inside every pussycat beats the Heart of
a Lion you're kidding me ah these cuties
could never be wild don't bet on it
without human contact cats soon return
to their wild State domestic cats that
go wild are called feral cats they join
up with other feral cats and form packs
that find their own food and never need
people that's one reason why many cats
are taken to the vets early in their
life so that if they do Escape they
can't have babies all over the place wow
I never realized see Henry in some ways
a cat is even more of a responsibility
than a dog well yeah but at least cats
take themselves for walks sure sometimes
for months at a time anyway what's wrong
with walking your pet you could do with
the exercise hey I work out yeah right
the only thing that ever gets a good
workout is your mouth
you'll know answer then Henry no does it
take to select a big exciting peg it
doesn't cost much and doesn't need too
much attention no wonder it's taken so
long you really want the moon on a stick
no I want a pet having little kind of
head is a big responsibility Henry you
know I'm not even sure you'd look after
a pet properly I would look after it I
would I would fine but just look at all
the things you need to keep a pet
healthy and happy it's a lot more work
and expense than you think Henry it is I
thought you just played ball with them
and stuff I didn't know you had to send
them to college okay it's not quite that
bad but even the humble guinea pig takes
looking after you have to buy a cage
water bowls and they don't eat just
anything either
give up at the wrong food and you can
make it real sick hmm I get the idea
but goldfish must be easy to keep yes
but even they have special requirements
feed them too much and they can die
whips you can never feed me too much I'm
aware of that Henry but it's not just
food you have to worry about pets
get lonely - I thought the idea was they
were company for us yeah but you can't
talk to them not in their own language
anyway sure I can what I think you
probably just said something nasty about
their mother must have got lost the
translation the main thing is to give
lots and lots of love and affection ah
with those guys I think I could do that
I'm sure you could you see the more time
you spend with your pets the happier and
healthier they'll be these guys must be
pretty happy they get headed 24 hours a
day talk about a dog's life
ladies I reserved the liver it's time
for a Henry's amazing golden decals for
the all-time fest on our earth is the
golden comforter they may not make the
world go wrong but there are enough of
them to go around the world
second vices cat they're related to the
big cats but they're a lot easier to
house-train
the winner of the golden
bein a tallest dog in the world despite
its name the Great Dane has nothing to
do with Denmark in fact it first came
from Germany about four hundred years
ago I was probably a cross between a
mastiff and a wolf hound now there's a
set of in-laws you wouldn't want to
annoy great things are so big but they
prefer to dine at a table it's too far
down for them to get a bowl on the floor
get on that in please
wow that's either a very big dog or a
very small sofa you are right the first
time
say did you know the largest Great Dane
on record was almost three and a half
feet high at the shoulder and when it
stood on its hind legs it was as tall as
a professional basketball player if you
think about it they've got more in
common with horses than dogs you amazing
I know but even though they're so big
they're one of the gentlest dogs around
maybe I should get one bit
Henry you'd have to stand on a box just
to reach its knees and they eat more in
one meal than you eat in a week and
considering your pizza consumption
that's a lot of food okay okay
oh Henry where are you oh Henry what
were you doing on that pony well if I'm
gonna be spending all that time taking
care of a pet I may as well get one
that'll earn its keep well it can be a
good idea many animals do work for their
owners but but nothing
right pooch that's not just any pooch
any that sheepdog can round up more than
a hundred sheep at a time yeah
but can he do this ah the real point is
you don't have any sheep so so you've
got no work for a sheepdog to do yeah I
have they don't do housework him what's
that noise Henry it sounds like oops
oh she big time I listen to you bad luck
Henry the sheepdog is one of the hardest
working animals in the world they round
up sheep all day come rain or shine well
this guy isn't working so hard
nope that's scruffy he's new and today
he's watching and learning they have to
go to school too
boy it sure is a dog's life for a
Patrick they're not pets Henry they're
working animals there's no time to relax
when there's a farm to run you gotta be
quick when there's that many sheep to
roundup typically she spends her time
whistling while the dogs do the hard
work Henry she is working those whistles
tell the dogs which way to go next they
understand amazing didn't they go those
are too smart doggies I hope you were
paying attention scruffy I'm sure he was
after all he wants to be a sheepdog too
one day wait a minute they missed a
couple oh all right now's your chance
Shawn what you learn boy
oh she thinks kick just wait though
scruffy finds them and here he comes
yeah and it slams in and wins awesome
neck and neck but Scruffy's coming up
fast through the gates and it's scruffy
- nothing scruffy the winner I hope
she's gonna thank him it just saved his
sheep patience Henry she is baby scruffy
gets to graduate from sheepdog school
now oh that scruffy hauling Kimba
scruffy
nope that's an elephant yeah some
elephants work hard for a living - you
know excuse me
elephants work I thought you just say
peanuts and blue now with their ears and
stuff no in Asia there used to lift and
pull really heavy loads
especially on steep mountainsides where
modern bulldozers and tractors can't
operate now that guy could be useful he
could carry all my groceries home from
the store oh Henry hey I was watching
that Henry will you tell this guy to
stop hogging the remote control you
never learn do you
you can't keep an elephant as a pet
you're telling me so is that what the
pet service selected is your ideal pet
no I was just trying it out I'm going
waiting for the answer you're still
waiting yeah feels like forever it is a
big decision
hey here it comes
