Seen at the British Wildlife Centre. Young otter 'Franklin' had found a stick to play with, just like a dog. But then he is a dog otter!

I so love this beach and I'm fcking happy today especially as I am going to see my all time favourite band Eels perform live in Sydney on 14th August....
Walking along Cannon Beach during Spring Vacation, we encountered this very cute dog playing fetch with his owner. He was such a photogenic character that I stopped to take some pictures, and amazingly, he stood and posed for me -- then proceeded to trot right up to me, standing patiently while I petted him! His owner laughed and said that I brought it on myself by kneeling down to his level for the photo -- he was actually a trained companion dog who worked with people in nursing homes. With the owner's permission, we all played fetch with him for a while before moving on down the beach with memories of a new friend.
