A Georgetown goat named Dog is in the running to become Cadbury's next Easter bunny

Dog has some fierce competition, including an actual bunny named Potato.

GEORGETOWN, Texas — Yes, you read that headline right. A Georgetown goat ... named Dog ... could become Cadbury's next Easter bunny!

"Dog is the most hilarious member of our family," said owner Elizabeth Ashcroft. "He's a smiley almost 5-month-old Nigerian dwarf who kind of looks like a cow, thinks he's a dog, has cat-like tendencies at times and is great at playing a bunny. His best friends are two big dogs and our 3-year-old son. He's super motivated by food, very sweet and cuddly and rather well-behaved for a goat. He brings so much joy and laughter to everyone who meets him!"
