Charles is a 3-year-old Labradoodle with a very imaginative groomer. On January 9th, Norfolk emergency services received three separate calls claiming to have seen a "baby lion" on the street. Charles is owned by Daniel Painter, who has the dog groomed to look like the Old Dominion University mascot.

Here's Charles at play!

Australia is experiencing a truly epic heat wave, with temperatures in Sydney expected to reach over 109 degrees Fahrenheit, or roughly 43 degrees Celsius. To help their animals cool off, employees have been doing everything they can to keep the critters comfortable. Cool water and frozen treats seem to be doing the trick, just ask Kuchani the lioness. She seems to be enjoying her frozen milk.

What's YOUR favorite way to cool off in the summer?
