Dog shaved like lion sparks 9-1-1 calls

A dog shaved like a lion made for an eventful night for Norfolk, Va., dispatchers, when several people who saw the dog on Tuesday called 9-1-1 to report a lion on the loose, the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot reports.
The newspaper obtained 9-1-1 call audio, in which one woman says, There was a lion that ran across the street a baby lion. It was about the size of a Labrador retriever.
The dogs owner, Daniel Painter, told the Virginian-Pilot that he shaved his pet to look like the mascot for Old Dominion University.
