.A Highland Cow rejected by the herd has grown up thinking he is a dog after his humans began raising him inside the family home. James the cow was likely born with oxygen-deprivation.

Emily says of James, ““He is the sweetest creature. He loves to lick us and the dogs.
And to just lay beside us and be scratched and petted.” Photos and video of the cute calf are going viral, and it’s no wonder as he makes the cutest hairy bovine to hang out with dogs I’ve ever seen! Share James’ and his pack with your friends and family.
Meet Goliath. He’s an adorable baby cow who’s convinced he’s a dog. Goliath, who’s actually a small calf, was rescued nearly two months ago from a dairy farm that was planning on slaughtering him, according to Shaylee Hubbs, a high school senior who lives with her family on a ranch in Danville, California.
Though Goliath was “so weak and so small that he couldn’t stand and you could pick him up very easily” when the family first got him, they’ve now nursed him into a healthy 8-week-old calf, Hubbs told ABC News today. The only thing is that he doesn’t think he’s a cow at all.
“I’m pretty sure he thinks he’s a dog,” said Hubbs, 17. “He was raised with our three dogs, and he’s around them every day. They chase and play together, he watches how they eat their dog food and drink water from their bowls and copies them and he even lays in their dog beds. He even loves scratches on his neck around his ear.”
