00:00G'day Herald viewers. We've lobbed on scene here. We're at the Long Dog Festival and I want you to
00:05meet Lily Little Legs. Check out the little legs. Now we're going to meet the owner here.
00:12What's your name? My name's Susie. Susie what do you like so much about Long Dogs? The Long Dogs
00:17is a special character. They are just the best character. They're like a human child that they
00:23just interact. They're spoiled. It's all about them and their loyalty. Absolute loyalty and
00:29cuddliness. Can you tell me why they were bred? They were bred to chase badgers. I've heard that.
00:35Why badgers? Well it had to be something small like you've got your average dog. It's not small
00:41and the bravery of these things. They'd go down in a hole for a badger or a rabbit and they didn't
00:46care. They'd go in right down with their little see the fat paws and little short legs. But you
00:51can't eat badgers. I don't know what they do with badgers. I think they use the fur. There you go.
00:57Good little badger hunter. Yes that's me. Lovely to meet you. Nice to meet you too.
