Dog nurses Tiger triplets at China zoo
Associated Press
BEIJING — It’s a dog’s life for three newborn tiger triplets in eastern China. The cubs, whom officials at the Jinan Paomaling Wild Animal World in Shandong province are so far just calling “One,” “Two” and “Three,” have been nursed by a dog since they were rejected by their tiger mother shortly after birth, said Paomaling manager Chen Yucai.
The trio’s adoptive mother, a mixed breed farm dog called “Huani,” is expected to nurse them for about a month or until their appetites outpace her supply, Chen said.
Chen said it is common for Chinese zoos to use surrogate dog mothers to nurse rejected tiger cubs and that Huani has nursed tigers before.

Awwwwwwww....they're so very cute. What a great way to brighten up our days!
3 mile run?? Now that sounds like a taper workout. Glad you made it through the bulk of the taper unscathed, and I look foreward to hearing 'bout your race.
Looks like it's going to be a little chilly Sunday AM. I'm going with an Under Armour Heat Gear long sleeve under my Team In Training singlet. Probably some "throw away" gloves for the start as well. Good luck. I'll be watching for you to finish!
This is tooo damn cute!!!
