Bull's Pure Excitement Over Treats Is Giving 'Happy Dog' Vibes

As many pet owners know, having a food-motivated animal can be both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, having the right treat on hand can make training, transport, and just about anything as easy as pie! But on the other hand, some pets will show no mercy when they're determined to steal something yummy.

Most of the time, this is a conundrum best understood by cat and dog owners, but there's one lucky bull owner who can relate, too. Yep--you read that right! Lucky the miniature bull is no stranger to his owner and her 'treat truck,' and he has the best reactions when he sees her.

On March 10, the bull owner of RWV Land and Livestock posted the sweetest video of Lucky's enthusiastic greeting. Plenty of viewers are comparing his reaction to how a dog says hello, and I think it's the cutest comparison. It's pretty accurate, too!

Aww! There's no mistaking this farm bull's excitement to see the treat lady--I mean, his owner. He trots over to her at full speed and barely gives himself time to slow down. If I saw a bull running toward me like that, I'd definitely be nervous, but @ddv8661 knows that's just how he says hello.

So many commenters like @codylackey0 think Lucky is "just a big puppy," and I can totally see why. He ran up to greet his mom just like a happy dog would do, and he even made a similar howling sound. Now I'm curious whether all bulls do this or whether Lucky has spent time around farm dogs!

This miniature bull is one of several mini Herefords living on the farm, though I find it difficult to imagine the chaos and beauty of a whole herd. Luckily, Lucky's friends Bruno and Stella are usually busy flirting with one another, so it never gets too chaotic.

Miniature Farm Animals--Good or Bad?

Although you wouldn't guess it by looking at him, Lucky is, in fact, a miniature bull. Mini Herefords like him weigh over 1000 pounds when fully grown, but other miniature farm animal species tend to weigh much, much less.

Many small animals, like miniature horses and teacup pigs, can be excellent barnyard companions, but at a steep price. Due to problematic breeding, many miniature animal species are at a higher risk for genetic and developed conditions such as leg deformities and heart problems. Fortunately, Lucky and his pals seem to be in good health, but it's always with doing research before adding a miniature animal to your hobby farm.

When the health of animals comes first, every animal owner will get to experience precious moments like Lucky's happy greeting. What's not to love about that?
