Play Bo's Academy Award Animals Quiz!
There's a lot of truth to that old actor's adage that warns against sharing the screen with children or animals; we're so darn cute that movie-goers just can't take their eyes off of us!
Who can forget adorable little Asta, the Wire-Haired Terrier, in The Thin Man series? And what about Ben and Socrates, those loyal and super smart rats in Willard? Or Flipper, the chattering dolphin who always managed to save the day?
Let's see how much you know about the scene-stealing critters who've appeared on the big screen, in Oscar winning films!

>Fur, feathers, or flippers, makes no difference, you remember these hard-working animal actors who paid their Hollywood dues. I'll bet many of them make you wax nostalgic for those golden days of childhood when life was simpler, and much, much slower.
Just the other day, I too was bitten by the acting bug (at least I hope it was the acting bug and not a flea). I believe I could play a very convincing leading dog, though I think I'll pass on any doctor roles since holding a scalpel would be quite challenging without a thumb (wouldn't want to maim anyone).
Maybe the offers will start pouring in once my family and I leave this big White House! Ya never know!

When it comes to dogs, not dog lovers and then there's the whole world. As the average of the parents with their children, a dog owner raise their pets as one of them and be fiercely protective and proud of their partner. Such love needs an outlet,
