Dangerous dog is tamed after falling in love - with a goose



http://www.express.co.uk/news/weird/445650/Puppy-love-Dangerous-dog-is-tamed-after-falling-in-love-with-a-goose

Rex the German Shepherd was so vicious it would take two people to feed him - one to distract him and the other to throw a bowl of food into his enclosure.

He would bark and growl at anything that passed and would even try to poke his head through his run to eat wild rabbits which roamed past.

But when introduced to Geraldine the goose the dog immediately mellowed and the two became inseparable.

At first the owners feared Rex would literally bite his feathered friend's head off for straying into his territory - but Geraldine took him under her wing.

The pair now like nothing more than going for a walk in the woods and snuggle down to sleep together in Rex's bed every night.
