They’d have to be much smaller than a St. Bernard for me to want one. A thirty-pounder would be about right.

I hpe my stepfather doesn’t find out about them. He’ll want to start breeding and selling them too. My mom would love them, and probably get so attached she couldn’t bear to sell them. When they were raising donkeys a few years ago it was bad enough.

But think of all the little baby sirloins, the perfect size for my George Foreman Grill. Yum.

Gosh. Quarter pounders on the hoof. Maybe this is how they fill those little pint size containers of milk we used to get in school.

Although something that weighs in at 375 pounds doesn’t exactly fit my definition of “teeny little cow”.

I want a whole farm of miniature animals. Little tiny cows and horses, teeny weenie sheep. I’ll only grow cherry tomatos and Brussel Sprouts.

I’d call it The Land of the Little and amuse myself by pretending to be a Giant all day.

Yes, that’s what I want.

So help me out here. Exactly how big of an aquarium would I need for one of these things?

This [guy](http://www.minicattle.com/index.cfm?select=article4) lives a few miles from me. They are neat looking little cows. There are always cars parked next to the pasture just to look at them.

Hey, lighten up, quit your beefin’ asnd don’t be so au"steer". At least I didn’t milk the joke for all it was worth. Everything else would “pail” in comparison.

How small are they?

Burger King has a new burger designed around them: the 1/8 pounder.
