This little baby<\/a> is showing the classic stomps and his best puffed-up pose, trying hard to look bigger and scarier. Even though he\u2019s tiny, he looks fierce, using these moves to warn off anything that might be a threat. If he were serious, he\u2019d turn around, point his tail, and start lunging back and forth. What\u2019s funny is that dogs often mistake this body language for playtime!”<\/p>\n They also said The Pipsqueakery “is a wonderful 501(c)(3) sanctuary that rescues and cares for tiny, vulnerable animals like baby skunks and other small wildlife.
