This Thursday, Discovery Family is premiering a new series that profiles the world’s most unusual animal friendships. In My Dog’s Crazy Animal Friends, playful pups form bonds with some of the most unexpected members of the animal kingdom. Each week, back-to-back episodes (episode descriptions below) will warm your heart and get your tail wagging!
In an exclusive clip shared with Channel Guide Magazine, we meet a darling doggie who has found a striped playmate who’s a pretty wild cat! It’s pretty marvelous to watch these two different species interact and find common ground through play. It reminds me of how easily children make friends at a playground; a playmate is a playmate.
In the adorable series, viewers learn that unusual friendship isn’t limited to just canines; animals of every kind make lifelong friendships with beasts whether they’re furred or feathered.
Gather your family for these heartwarming tales of animal affection and celebrate friendships that defy convention.

“My Dog’s Crazy Animal Friends”
I have watched this show and do like it, but its starting to get ruined by the idiotic narration, so I won’t be watching it for long.
Why the need to make everything be nasty or about sex?
The Dachshund and the lion and the repeated narration of “just one more kiss”?
The Lab and the elephant, “Pull my trunk, I dare you”?
Not funny!
um.. you are the only one making it dirty
